If he were blaming the Chinese as a race instead of their horrible government or the wet market culture... sort of, I guess? But is anyone really stupid enough to think that this happened because of race? It happened because China's despotic government kept people poor and kept wet markets going, has encouraged a culture of shoddy attention to detail that reverberated through their medical research labs right next door to one of those wet markets, and then decided as they always do to cover up the truth to save face instead of standing up and being forthright.

I wish people who get hit with accusations of racial insensitivity by idiots who think everything is about race would have the balls to strike back and call out that stupidity for what it is. Although the people with those balls don't get invited to speak at climate change reform events in the first place.
