Karrueche Tran is not happy about the latest discriminatory attacks that have been happening to Asians amidst the Coronavirus.
The model would address the situation on her Instagram account in a post that read, “Xenophobia is not ok!! To target and discriminate Asians is wrong!! There are Asians afraid to leave their homes! There are people who have already been hurt (I know y’all seen the video of the older Asian man). The coronavirus is not “The Chinese Virus”! Let’s stop instilling more fear and hate. The world is struggling enough as it is. Please stop this!!”

Earlier this week during a press conference, Donald Trump called the pandemic the “Chinese virus”, and defended why he said it to a reporter who called him out about it. See the post below.
President Trump defends his use of “Chinese virus” to refer to COVID-19, telling @CeciliaVega it is “not racist at all.”
The use of the term has been under scrutiny amid reported incidents of bias against Asian Americans. https://t.co/piDsmnkG0y pic.twitter.com/NgRUtPiJro
