Text of excerpt, if available
Many Americans, including the President, have been referring to the virus as the Chinese virus, Wuhan virus, Asian virus, or even the Foreign virus, placing the blame on Asian people and fanning the flames of xenophobia and racism—leading to an outbreak of anti-Asian coronavirus rhetoric and hate crimes. The Anti-Defamation League has noted a surge in anti-Asian activities including racist messages or caricatures of Chinese people mocking their eating habits, accents, and hygiene.
