President Joe Biden signed the memo that condemns rising racism, xenophobia, and intolerance against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in the United States.
“The Federal Government must recognize that it has played a role in furthering these xenophobic sentiments through the actions of political leaders, including references to the COVID-19 pandemic by the geographic location of its origin,” the document states.
“Such statements have stoked unfounded fears and perpetuated stigma about Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and have contributed to increasing rates of bullying, harassment, and hate crimes against AAPI persons.”
So, there you have it. You can't call it the Wuhan Virus, the Chinese Virus, or the CCP Virus. It is just "COVID", or you may hurt somebody's feelings.
Waaaaaah.

Does this mean we have to change the names of MERS and the Spanish Flu?

NO, What it means is we are now under a dictatorship according to the man who now fills the oval office! Biden said we are a government of multiple voices not just one via the Executive order. That's nothing more than a dictatorship.
