As an Asian American... no, I don’t think racism played into this at all. Would have been exactly the same if it started in London.

I don't know if it's racism but I also am sure that if it had started in London we wouldn't be hearing about "the British virus" and so on.

Spanish Flu disagrees with you

As an Asian American, let's not try to speak on behalf of a minority of 18+ million.

Especially to downplay a possibly valid concern of an individual of your supposed group

It’s a stupid concern. The reason the government is incompetent is that the government is incompetent. That’s not uniquely American, and there’s no evidence that race has played into any of this. We didn’t exactly change our tune when Italy freaked out. Does that mean we’re racist against Italians?
