5. All of our lives changed in 2020 with the emergence of the CoronavirusCountless have tragically diedJobs have been lostPeople have been isolatedMental health has been damagedSchools have been closedAll of this causes sadness, frustration, and sometimes unfortunately for some a desire for revenge, and a need to blame.This has in the past 18 months led to an unprecedented increase in hate crimes against people of Asian decent in the UK
6. Some world leaders have helped to spread this hateThe former President Trump has throughout the pandemic called the Coronavirus ‘the China Virus’ or ‘Kung Flu.’
7. The impact of anti Chinese rhetoricThere has been a major spike in anti-Chinese sentiment in the US. And in a country where many struggle to differentiate between Chinese people and other Asian ethnic groups, this resulted in a rising number of hate crimes against all East and Southeast Asians.Similarly in the UK, police data suggests a rise of 300 percent in hate crimes towards Chinese, East and Southeast Asians in the first quarter of 2020 compared with the same period in 2018 and 2019. According to ‘End the Virus of Racism’, a UK-based advocacy group, this trend continues to this day.
8. Is it fair to blame China because the Coronavirus did start there?No it is not fair to blame China. Pandemics are a reality of life and our history. Covid 19 was not the first and it won’t unfortunately it won’t be the last.The Spanish flu, which caused 50 million deaths worldwide in 1918 originated in the USThe Cholera Pandemic which caused 20 million deaths originated in RussiaPandemics emerge historically from different locations for different reasons. The response should be to work together to overcome, not to blame innocent people.Image of people who are critically ill being treated for the Spanish Flu in 1918
