So here's Eleanor Wu (My version of Rarity)wearing those face masks that you see a lot of Chinese people wearing which leads me to my point I want to get out. So in case you have been living under a rock, the new hip sickness called the "coronavirus" has swept the world by storm, with the source being from China. Many theorize that the pandemic started from the Chinese wildlife trade, where someone ate bat soup in the city of Wuhan and thus the disease spreading as currently the death toll has reached 1,300. Well that's from official records though knowing the Chinese government it's probably higher. That being said because the disease originated from China, many East Asians living abroad have faced severe racist attitudes. Saying that the Chinese are dirty, diseased and not normal. That they should not be able to move around for risk of spreading the virus. The idea that the Chinese will eat anything. Even a few cases of attacks against Asians such as the case of a woman who was attacked on a New York City Subway. Even NonChinese Asians such as Koreans, Vietnamese and even Japanese have also faced these racist insults as well (Because ya know they all look the same). So let's get something out of the way do I believe China's wildlife trade is dangerous should be stopped and banned? Of course because half of the species there are endangered and it is a health hazard in general,But you know how much crap we eat here in the US?! (Only referring to America because I don't know much other countries food works out health wise) People accuse the Chinese of eating things such as Dogs, cats, bugs, snakes and bats, but here in America, there are people that'll eat Squirrels, rats, deer, and even alligators! Not to mention the sheer amount of food that gets called back due to health concerns but by then millions of people already got it. Many people's drinking water is contaminated, 14,000 people die from the flu every year and to top it all off, we got these crazy anti vaxxers letting their kids run around without getting their shots thus letting age old diseases make a comeback all because they don't want their kid to get autism. (As someone with Asperger's Syndrome that alone pisses me off) You want proof of this? Last year during my last semester of university we had a mumps outbreak. You heard me a mumps outbreak! Now am I saying we shouldn't be concerned about the coronavirus? No it is a serious matter, but keep in mind it's just like how AIDS, bird flu, swine flu,and Ebola was portrayed. A disease from a foreign land, that won't effect many people in the West, but it's exploited by the media to give off racists and xenophobic fears. Anyway rant over. Still Eleanor still knows how to look fabulous in that face mask.
