Hopefully people are starting to listen to public health experts albeit a little late but better than never and believing what is being reported on NBC, CBS, and ABC.

Wuhan Virus is the accepted nomenclature when identifying the original vector point for a serious virus. It is not "racist". Ebola, Zika, Hong Kong Flu, etc. all follow this protocol.
Covid 19 is the DISEASE you can get from the Wuhan Virus. The two terms are not synonymous. As to whether or not Mr. Cain caught the virus at the Tulsa rally, all we have is conjecture. There is no proof and he could have easily caught it anywhere else.
Wuhan Virus is not a hoax, but Hydroxychloroquine has been shown to be effective in reducing Covid severity IF administered within 48 hours of symptoms appearing. It is not a cure but rather a prophylactic.
When the MSM start to actually report the science without slanted opinion, I'l start believing them. In the meantime, I prefer to take my direction from unadulterated science. Keep social distancing, wear a mask, wash your hands. All solid advice.
