Trump is wrong about a lot of things, but he was not wrong to not bend to political correctness over the term "Chinese Corona Virus." If the Ebola virus can be named after a river in Africa, and the Spanish flu can be called..well...Spanish, then it's not racist to call a virus that originated in China the Chinese Corona Virus. It could be called the Wuhan coronavirus as well. Calling it simply the "coronavirus" is deceptive as the common cold is caused by a coronavirus. Calling it the "COVID-19" virus is deceptive because COVID-19 is the name of the disease just like AIDS is the name of the disease caused by HIV. But more importantly, before any reported cases of the Chinese coronavirus anywhere, including China, the communist Chinese were already floating the idea that anything that shed light negatively on them was somehow "racist." It's a fact that their bungling is a large reason why this virus is a pandemic.
Anyway, here is the article.
