This morning a White House official referred to #Coronavirus as the “Kung-Flu” to my face. Makes me wonder what they’re calling it behind my back.

These people have no shame. I'm really sorry this happened to you. They don't speak for us.

Why do you care? There are bigger things going on right now ... maybe save the outrage for another day?

It’s the Chinese Flu. The Wuhan Flu. Facts are facts.

They’re not serious about this. And I’m sorry you were subjected to that.

*Not serious about handling #coronavirus. Racist in general.

I believe you. But shouldn't you tell us his or her name?

Well that official was wrong... It is more accurate to call it the WuFlu. #WuFlu #ChinaDidIt #CronaVirus #WuhanVirus #kungflu #COVID19
