Why isn’t that racist? Last year it was being called racist when they referred to it as the Wuhan or China virus.

I believe the correct term is “People of Color Strain.”

It’s also weird how travel bans now aren’t xenophobic.

quote:

JUST IN: The Trump administration has announced a ban on foreign national travel for those who have been in China within the last 14 days https://t.co/oBOXSrj8up — CNN (@CNN) January 31, 2020

We are in the midst of a crisis with the coronavirus. We need to lead the way with science — not Donald Trump’s record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering. He is the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health emergency. — Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) February 1, 2020

And now this from yesterday:
JUST IN: President Biden is expected to impose travel ban Monday for most non-US citizens traveling from South Africa, 2 White House officials say; Biden is also expected to reinstate restrictions affecting travel from the UK, Ireland, and parts of Europe. https://t.co/G41eqYBroH — NBC News (@NBCNews) January 24, 2021

It was only “xenophobic” when Trump or any Republican did it, obviously.
