I'm surprised reading this thread:
I read about strains of many viruses from different places.
Heck, there is even a "Kent Strain" of CV19.
Time to go to Kent and start beating people up?

Seriouslly...

Viruses have had location based names for a very long time.
It is normal science.
Trying to not use a location based name is being anti-science.
Now what makes the Wuhan Virus special that so many take anti-science views about it?
A variant first seen in the United Kingdom
A variant first seen in South Africa
A variant first seen in Brazil

I suspect it is just several very ignorant total cowards that attack a old Asian, they are typically small stature and old. For some reason they don't go after Sumo Wrestlers or large muscular men. They are just stupid cowards that think a old small person is an easy target.
