Anti-Asian hate crime has risen as a result of the pandemic and associations between Covid and the site of its first outbreak in Wuhan, China. With US anti-extremist groups saying that the rise in hate crimes was partly due to former president Donald Trump who referred to Covid-19 as the China virus. US anti-extremist groups said a rise in attacks on Asian-Americans was partly down to Donald Trump, who referred to Covid-19 as the China virus.Trumps successor as president, Joe Biden, signed a hate crimes law this month to protect those who have suffered a surge in attacks during the pandemic. As for the desire to avoid hurt feelings, some may consider it oversensitivity. Similarly, the influenza pandemic of 1968 was widely known at the time as Hong Kong flu, even though it almost certainly originated not in that then-British colony, but in mainland China.
Less than 1000 people died from the Hong Kong flu of 1968.
