China Virus Hashtags Linked to Anti-Asian Speech (VIDEO)

April 12, 2021 A recent study found former President Trump s first use of #chinesevirus on Twitter corresponded with a rise in anti-Asian rhetoric. SHOW TRANSCRIPT A year into the pandemic, anti-Asian discrimination on social media is still shaping real world speech. A recent study of Twitter data found a dramatic increase in the use of the hashtag #chinesevirus, along with anti-Asian rhetoric, in the days after then-President Trump first tweeted it. Before March 16, the dominant term was COVID-19. And once he used the term Chinese virus in his tweet, the dominant term became Chinese virus, said Dr. Yulin Hswen, researcher and assistant professor of epidemiology and biostatistics at University of California, San Francisco.
