Maybe this out of my topics but i wanted to reply to https://noise.cash/u/Cryptonator in his post https://noise.cash/post/1zj3677j and since the reply comment is more like a little research i wanted to put it here too.

I'm not here to spread hate or support "asian hate" (movement that didn't arrive here where i live), but if there is one thing that i'll always do, it is to defend the truth

In this case:

it is undeniable that "Covid-19" has spread all over the world, but is it really the "chinese virus"?

I always like to dig into the past, let's see a few events:

1918 - 1919:

The H1N1 (spanish influenza) exploded in Kansas, its source is unclear but an hypothesis is that it originated in China, then migrants going to the USA delivered the virus there where it started mutating

1957 - 1960:

The H1N2 (asian influenza) first case was reported in Guizhou, China. In June 1957 it reached the USA

1968 - 1969:

The H3N2 (hong kong influenza) was born in Hong Kong and spread in the USA

1977 - 1979:

The H1N1 (russian influenza), it originated in Liaoning, Jilin and Tianjin, China. Then it spread in Siberia and Russia

2002 - 2003:

The SARS was identified by the doctor Carlo Urbani in Italy (he died because of it)

Its source has been identified in Guangdong China

These are not all the pandemic events that occured since the beginning of the times.

I picked all the last and i skipped the swine flu because it originated multiple times in different years and i couldn't really put it in one single spot of the list so i kept it out
