The virus came from China, why shouldn't people call it a chinese virus.

Usual shit heads looking to be outraged, usually on someone elses behalf.

Fuck off

To me it just seems like the purpose of a name is to provide vital information. Chinese Virus doesn't really do that except allowing you to Google where this pandemic began. Using coronavirus or Covid lead you to information that actually matters, i.e. prevention and treatment. At the same time, "Chinese Virus" being offensive seems like a dumb policing of vernacular except when public officials like the President or media are using it.

Seeing as this is their third strike in less than 20 years, maybe that is vital information. China needs to clean up it's act before they end the world with their total and utter disregard for the rest of the planet.

Fuck off
notice how now people are arguing about the name of the virus instead of arguing about the gov't response to the virus?

that's not an accident.

maybe if we weren't buying the products of slave labor, their gov't would have collapsed a long time ago.
