YASSSSS. 

I took great pleasure in yelling, “Barba!!!” anytime he was onscreen. Definitely a favorite (hot) character.

The point is that most of the world, including most of China has nothing to really fear. It’s a genuine concern for world governments to mobilize and contain, but the global hysteria is what leads people to fall back on dumb bigotries out of unreasonable fear. 

I feel like a lot of people who claim to have / had the flu AND THAT IT'S NOT SO BAD did not actually have the flu and that’s why they’re so nonchalant about it. When I had the flu, I felt like absolute fucking death for an entire week and thought I was Patient Zero of the new zombie apocalypse. And then I couldn’t…

Evidently you have never been to an Asian country or a big city in the US.

People wear them for both reasons, and for pollution in certain cities.

It is the logo for one of the largest fashion brands currently. Off-white.

I was wondering that too, otherwise sorry dude in stock photo - you’re now a racist!

I don’t know if it’s overreaction or racism, but yeah, you should examine your feelings about that store. You are just as likely to brush elbows with [a family member who came into contact with your local coronavirus case] at Dunkin Donuts or Kroger or Walgreens or whatever.

Usually people wearing masks aren’t sick themselves, but wearing them to AVOID getting sick.

My experience has been that of rolling racism. I cough. People look horrified. Someone asks if I’m Chinese. I tell them I’m not Chinese, I’m Korean. Then I get asked which Korea I’m from.

My son works 50+ hours a week in a salaried position. His employer does not offer health insurance coverage because it’s cheaper for them to just pay the penalties.

My mother is from Hong Kong and my grandmother still lives there. During the SARS outbreak, my grandmother had to cancel a visit to us in the US since her flight was scheduled during the height of the panic. I still have family in both HK and the mainland so this is all very real to me.

Global pandemics are abjectly terrifying, but especially so with coronavirus, a fast-spreading flu-like virus that originated in Wuhan, China.

She was the face of it for many years, she built her entire career off of it, and she was directly responsible for the contestants training. Which was horrible from a personal training perspective I’d add. She may not be “At the helm” but she sure as fuck is a lot of the reason the show has the reputation is has...…

I'm surprised no one has died on this show
