[quote=flu]I think the only ones really paranoid about the Coronavirus here are other Asian people, specifically middle age and older Chinese and they are the worst ones in discriminating against themselves.
Ranch 99 is a ghost town these days. And much of there food is on buy one get one free. lol. And most of the cashiers now are no longer Chinese. They are either Latino or Vietnamese. And the parking lot is empty.
My kid had a cold and recovered from it and had a cough, and my kid’s private Chinese language tutor called me and asked if she could skip classes for two weeks. She didn’t want to risk geting the Coronavirus. I’m not kidding. My kid’s friend that attends Chinese school in the weekend mentioned parents are asking if they can do a video conference based class instead of attending in person.
And when my kid wants to hang out with other Chinese friends or had a school project, their parents call me and ask if I’ve been to China. None of her non-chinese friends’ parents have ever called me for the same reason. Go figure..[/quote]
Probably because the middle age and up crowd watching news from Chinese language media sources, which is currently on Coronavirus coverage 24/7.
