Yes. Can I ask why the renown conspiracy theorist on the bored is trying to parrot the same rhetoric that Donald Trump is using to deflect from his administrations atrocious response?
To be fair, even the most liberal among us must be thinking we're due a mighty big apology from China. Imagine if the situation had originated in the UK?
I don't personally give a shit about getting an apology from China. I'd rather they permanently prohibit the importing of exotic animals that are classed as endangered (like pangolins) and ban the sale of meat from wet markets like they said they would after the SARS crisis to make sure the risk of something like this happening again is significantly reduced.

China. We don't call every other disease a name based on where it comes from. What's the motivation for doing so now?
(Except for Spanish Flu, which bizarrely most likely came from the US. Thinking about it, there's also the 'English disease' which is either syphilis or gout depending on which nationality the small minded ignorant twat comes from.)
Rickets isn't it?
Nah. Football hooliganism
Rickets, as well. Also football hooliganism and strikes. All, I'm sure, labelled with innocent meaning - just a gentle ribbing, coming with the love of England in their soul. Much like when someone calls this the china disease.
Everytime I've heard it, usually given with a patronising smile, I've always smiled back and thought what an ignorant dickhead.
