  1. I haven’t heard “Chinesevirus” as much as “China Virus”, which denotes it’s origin, much like previous pandemics. Those who consider it racist to label something what it is are easily offended by truth, eh?

    • Perhaps we should call it the communist virus. Also I don’t understand with all the problems right now the pc police are all concerned what it’s called.

  2. Everyone be well and be safe. Only watch about an hour of the news. dont overdose on the bad news… Call a friend….text a friend… talk to your neighbors.. We will come through this crisis.. Just think about 6 months from now we’ll will look back at the crisis and be happy/proud that we came thru this crisis and kicked its butt.

  3. May God bless you soulcasserole you hit it on the nail we need to trust inGod and let this all flow over us then we will be graceful for all our blessings I’m 68 yrs old and so blessed I pray for you all sick and well and rember me in your prayers Love to all Carolyn

  4. It seems that anything a conservative says is racist according to liberals. If not for President Trump shutting our borders to flights from China we would be in greater harm. The Chinese did not give it a second thought to shipping this virus all over the world. I wonder if sleepy Joe and other domestic enemies=liberals still think it was racist of Trump to restrict Chinese from enter this country. So tired of white liberals hating on white conservatives for being Americans. The greatest existential threat this country faces is not global warming or even china, it’s liberals, domestic enemies of the constitution.
