      On CNN, Chief White House Correspondent Jim Acosta says President @realDonaldTrump referring to the coronavirus as a "foreign virus" "smacks of xenophobia."pic.twitter.com/1aibFjZp5R

      That's because it is xenophobic to refer to a "foreign virus," as it's clearly designed to demonize the nation where the outbreak started. Viruses don't have race or nationality. They aren't "foreign," and #COVID19 has been in the US for several weeks.

          Blaming China looks to be where this is going. I actually watched that speech last night, and if I recall correctly, China was the only actual nation mentioned. Several times, so you got the point. That and 'Europe', which I'm pretty sure Trumpkins think is one country.

          Sorry, where was the inception of this virus again?, that’s right, China, therefore China is to blame for the dissemination of this virus.

          Yea they do. They have origins and those origins matter in the development of the virus. Check out the CDC page on Covid19 and compare it to the CDC Ebola page. Ebola page is all about the origin location. Is one page racist and the other not? Both on the CDC site.

          Why has the CDC named every other virus by the country of origin ? Simple question. Answer it.

          1, you have PhD in your name so anything you say I find questionable. 2, this is a foreign virus because, and this might be difficult for you to understand, mister PhD, but the genesis of the virus incepted in China, now that it is in America it has now become a foreign virus.

          and the virus being in the United States for several weeks doesn’t render it less foreign, mate. PhD. 😂
