It's important to remind the world that indeed, that is a CHINESE virus and that they need to keep their viruses to themselves.

So we can call black people ‘African-Americans’ because that’s where they’re ‘originally from’ but we can’t call a virus ‘Chinese’. Ok. Got it.

The Chinese deserve it.

They covered it up, they perhaps caused it with their wet markets, or perhaps even more nefariously with their bio-weapons/infectious disease labs. They should consider themselves lucky that it's just being called "China Flu", "Wu Flu", etc....

There are 100's of diseases, etc.... named after the places they started, live with it.

Stupid huh. Well if there weren't assholes out there beating up Asians because of the coronavirus, it might be okay to call it the China or Chinese virus.

Yeah as if we are not capable of making a distinction between the Chinese government and Chinese Americans who came here to get away from that government.

Everyone, across all political parties was calling it some version of "Chinese Virus" before they realized they could use it as a political cudgel, example videos below -

Ironically the only assholes beating up Asian Americans are African Americans.

China is not a race, it's a country.

A China virus is a virus that originates from the country China.

Are you truly this ignorant? Well...Given your passion for googy-eyed nellies and buttsechs with "married" men, I suppose the answer is yeah. You are truly this ignorant.

Now then, I await your retarded rebuttal with great anticipation. You should be ashamed of yourself but then, you are you.
