President tweeted, “The United States will be powerfully supporting those industries, like Airlines and others, that are particularly affected by the Chinese Virus. We will be stronger than ever before!”

 

While many institutions and people have criticized the tweet of Donald Trump, for instance, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that the phrase sounds racist, and it is inappropriate for the leader to associate such disease and China together. It may increase the distances between nations and hamper the harmony during such conditions. 

 

The tweet has also received massive counterblasts from the various social media activates, as Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted back that this is inaccurate blame and may put the many Asian Americans in the situation of danger.

This newest tweet from the President had come after when the Director of the CDC agreed for the House hearing as the statement was totally wrong and inapt to say for the labels “Chinese CoronavirusCoronavirus because the virus has now spread to other countries around the world. In the U.S., there were about 3500 positive COVID-19 infected cases on Monday night as per the media reports. 

 

De Blasio is going to hold the media roundtable meeting on Wednesday so that they can work against the rise of discrimination towards the Asian communities living in New York.
