Is It Racist To Call Chinese Checkers Chinese Checkers? | Eastern North Carolina Now

COVID-19 started in Wuhan, China but we are told it is racist to refer to it as the Wuhan Virus or the Chinese Virus.

I confused again. We can’t call it the Wuhan Virus or the Chinese Virus but we can call the Variants to COVID-19...

  • U.K. Variant
  • Brazilian Variant
  • South African Variant

Yea, that makes sense...Or does it?

Would I kid u?
