TIL Desk/World/Washington/ Americans have to “make this China virus go away’ and it is happening, President Donald Trump has said, as he thanked the frontline workers for their incredible efforts to combat the coronavirus pandemic.
Trump appeared in a taped Oval Office conversation with a group of frontline workers – doctors, nurses, firemen, policemen, postal workers. This was not the first time when Trump called the novel coronavirus as China’s virus.
In March, he had said that China is responsible for the spread of the novel coronavirus and called the Covid-19 as the “Chinese Virus”.
He, later, insisted the term was accurate because the virus originated in the central Chinese city of Wuhan. Calling the group his “friends’ and “the incredible workers’ who helped the US fight the coronavirus, Trump said “we can call it many different things – from China virus – I don’t want to go through all the names because some people may get insulted but that’s the way it is.
