ELI5: Why do we not capitalize most disease names?
Diseases (the ones that aren’t named after a person or place) are considered to be common nouns, and therefore they don’t get capitalized. But what distinguishes diseases from places or people in terms of being names? Is it something to do with the origins of their roots or something else? Thanks for any help you can provide!
