Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

Our great POTUS, Donald J Trump, will likely win two Nobel Prizes in the next few years... first, for Leadership and second for Peace.

Truly a remarkable human being... who cares for the people of the USA and the world.

Where did the flu originate? Do we call it the Saginnaw Michigan flu? The Baton Rogue measles? The American pancreatic cancer?

Trump and Trumpsters are so simple minded they need someone to blame. That's it. That's all.

I don’t mind anything being called what it is.

Apparently we’ve all been xenophobes since 1957 then

Try to play nice for a change.

Now, that's sounds borrrrinngg! but sure, i'll "try"

 

[tvolsfan]

So Spanish Flu was ok but Chinese virus is just too much? It’s a stretch for me to buy this weird outrage that it’s racist to refer to a virus that originated in China as Chinese.

The Spanish have to be pissed, because the 1918 flu pandemic definitely did not originate in Spain.

When you get your shipment of masks in and somebody asks where they are from , are you going to say they are from China ?

 

[Orange_Crush]

It is not known as the Chinese virus, it is known as COVID-19. It has been named - use the name.
We understand Trump's objective.

Just like it's racist to say "Zika Virus" or "Spanish Flu".

This is a massive eyeroll. Your pearl clutching is ridiculous.

The German Measles and West Nile Virus say this is dumb as hell.

Lol.. I actually wondered about that.

What about the media who were calling it the Wuhan virus?

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

It’s been known as Wuhan , Chinese, Coronavirus and COVID-19 .... when talking to “Bob” next door which one do you think he calls it ? Outside of posts and articles , I’ve yet to hear a person call it COVID-19 . I might try it on “ Bob” just to make myself sound smarter though .

You can tell they all read Twitter. The snowflakes are melting down on there over this.

 

[luthervol]

You don't know squat here bud.

Don't know squat? Bud???
I guess you told me.
I do know this: the virus is known as COVID-19 and the virus is not known as the Chinese virus.

 

[OHvol40]

I liked a thought Knoxville Mayor Glenn Jacobs made today.....we know we're going to get thru this but what's on the other side once we do.

The lack of weighing the economic impacts is troubling.

There isn’t a lack of economic consideration, it’s called prioritization.

Good, because coronavirus was identified and named in the 60s.
