Who thought to name it Epstein-Barr?

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 55 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Probably Doctors Epstein and Barr.

[–] Goodlucksil@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 2 days ago

Anthony Epstein and Yvonne Barr, more specifically

Dr Epstein went on to invent the Epstein drive in the early 23rd century.

It’s been called that since the 60s. Epstein is also just a last name.
