Asia’s ‘murder hornet’ will arrive on East Coast and is ‘here to stay’

[Vlad_]

So CNN calls them “asian” hornets while hypocritically calling ***** a racist for the “chinese” virus (after of course using the same term themselves)

Also, unlike “chinese”, “asian” is actually a race...

I was stationed in Korea for 2 years, saw a lot of scary shyt while I was there. TKD injuries, violent brawls in the village, 6 bouts @147 (2 of which I got my azz stomped), but those bassturds were by far the scariest. Up by the DMZ near the rice patties & farms you see them on trees resting and the size of them alone just puts a fear in you. Stings are hella nasty too. The venom kills your skin & muscle like acid.

How do they deal with them over there?

Wrong.

Coronavirus is a generic term for this type of virus.

You had MERS (middle eastern respiratory syndrome) which was also a coronavirus.

Covid-19 is actually the disease the virus leads to, if you want to be a smart ass.

This virus itself is labelled SARS-CoV-2.

We're gonna have to start walking around with electric bug zappers soon. People will walking around with masks, gloves and small electric tennis racquets. Not what I had in mind for 2020. Next we'll have flying tarantulas, and then I'm getting the f*** out of here and living in an igloo.
