Ebola virus was named because it "originated" near the ebola river in Africa

What if they tried to name it "the Africa Virus" lol how would that sound? Wuhan would've been more appropriate but regardless, it's been covid19 since its discovery. Ignoring the actual name to instead call it the China Virus has a deliberate intent by the people that are doing it and if we're being intellectually honest, we know what that intent is.

It’s not the medical scientific name, so calling it the Chinese virus is meant to insult China and Chinese people.

Chinese Americans feel offended by it, and random Asians are being attacked. So call it what you want to call it, but don’t get mad when there’s a negative reaction.

You can’t tell people how they should react to being put down.

Agreed. I’m not going to purposely make anyone’s life difficult, but it’s up to them to speak up, and they spoke up. They don’t like it, so any negative reaction should be expected.

nikkas wanna cape for the Chinese. Y'all don't get tired of being treated like cheap prostitutes huh
honestly i got no issue with calling it whatever we want to and putting china in check.

but calling it names to make us feel better about ourselves or some shyt right now doesn't really do anything for me.

solve the actual illness first. then we go on the attack. calling it the chinese virus ain't letting me go outside again.

I'll call it that when I hear healthcare officials, doctors and other experts call it that.

Otherwise, Covid-19
