We’re continuing to cover the coronavirus as it impacts every aspect of our lives, but you won’t hear us refer to it as a Chinese virus: this is why. Stay safe out there y’all ☮️
It will always be the Chinavirus.
Shutup
So how come it was historically acceptable to use terms such Legionnaires disease or the Spanish flu, but not the Chinese virus?
Of course Mr Chang has a problem with this….lol.
Chinese government virus cause it came from Chinese government’s failure to contain the virus! I don’t blame the common Chinese people but the government there
It’s the Chinese virus.
It came from CHY NA!
Member the Spanish flu? The one that killed 500 million people world wide? You think people cared about weather it hurt the Spanish?
IT IS THE CORRECT LABEL. SHUT UP. U DESERVVV ETTT
These people should be held accountable for their virus.
ITS A CHINESE VIRUS.
What’s most interesting about this piece is CNET didn’t pull it…well, not funny…sad.
Why is it wrong. Its fair, the scientists always make the names for the viruses based out of the location of their origin.
Nah. Just because its Chinese doesn’t mean it gets a pass. I bet you and everyone else preaching this still call other diseases the name given to it when it was originally given… we all know the Chinese government wouldn’t dare take responsibility over this. And since they clearly play a roll in American media and also on this very app, we will not be giving their corrupt and evil government a pass. No thanksssss
Spanish Flu, German Measles, Lyme Disease, Chinese Virus… there u go enough said.
It’s created by the Chinese, therefore it’s a virus with Chinese origin. This guy needs to go back to school if it’s so hard to understand.
Hes a few more words.…
“IN THIS COUNTRY, we have free speech.
And if you dont like it , LEAVE.”
☆ALERNATE VIDEO NAME☆
SENSITIVE ASIAN CRIES OVER NAME CALLING .….
Shut up
We are more aware of the significance of words today? You would be correct in a sense, which is why Chinese Virus works so well for everyone except the people who work so hard to cover up the origin. Why are you singling out the woman who yelled at you and your family? Many she had a reason to? You didn’t clarify yourself on that. Words are more significant today than they were in the past? I would say they are equally as significant today as they were in the past.
Ebola, Spanish, Zikka, Flu…
It’s not racist at all, it comes from CHI-NA
It’s the Chinese virus!! That’s where it’s point of origin is! Get over yourself!! Oh and 🖕 CNN
Then why people call the Spanish flu?
Lol Spanish flu isn’t even originate in Spain it started on america…
Aww my wittle kung flu feelings got hurt 😢
Because the CCP lied
Chinese virus
The wet market is way less racist. 😎👌
Spanish flu is fine? Lyme disease is fine? St Louis Encephalitis is fine? Marburg virus is fine? Ross river fever is fine? West Nile virus is fine? But can’t call it the Wuhan virus?
This video didn’t age well 😅
Chinease virus…now confirmed.
Chinese virus
Oof made in a lab tho

Fast forward to now… New York post wrote article saying Cov I’d did escape from chi nese la b .
West Nile Virus. Spanish Flu. MERS stands for..
It’s literally where it originated from… If you think race/politics is a problem educate your children why and if that’s not working learn why it’ now a problem and needs to be corrected.
THATS NOT CHINESE VIRUS!
