Thank you. My question wasnt a personal attack just helps me understand your rationale and give weight to the value of your arguements.

Edit: as a clinical pharmacist do you come into direct contact with persons who are infected or dispense medication for medical staff to administer?

I do wonder about how I would feel if my family member was infected. I would hope that they receive fair and equal treatment to the best of the medical staffs ability to be able to care for them.

I could see an adversity by health care staff in wanting to help those that are infected. They are human after all and their survival mechanisms are kicking in. I'm sure not everyone thought about treating people who were infected with a virus when they joined the medical profession.

I dont see a spread of panic or hate in this thread per se. Nothing really malicious just a sense of precaution mixed in with some racial bias.

Havent noticed any racism or hatred in the LMD targeting specific minorities. Just the odd facebook post that shows asians in make shift cbrne gear shopping costco.

Is there racism and hate going on in HK?
