This is not the first time that fear of the coronavirus has led to insensitive and xenophobic comments against the Asian community as some stated that the Academy gave best picture to the coronavirus after "Parasite" won the award at the Oscars, while a Singaporean student in the UK was reportedly beaten up in a racist attack and told "I don't want your coronavirus in my country" by the attacker.
