The coronavirus has affected a range of people who are from different countries, different backgrounds, and different races. That may be a surprise to Waka Flocka Flame, who made a duo of false remarks during a Mar. 13, 2020, interview on Real 92.3 LA that you shouldn’t take as valid guidance in any way. While the rapper wasn’t offering up any tips or ideas on how to deal with the circumstances, he may have been (erroneously) trying to help others stay informed about the situation when he said the coronavirus is “fake” and added that “minorities can’t catch it.” To set things straight right off of the bat: That’s not true at all.
Flame then asked the host to name one example and while he couldn’t, if the musician industry pro was specifically referring to people of color, not only have we already mentioned the fact NBA player Rudy Gobert has tested positive, but so has actor Idris Elba. It’s unclear if that would have swayed Flame’s opinion. “We all descended from the same persons. Now, did we catch it? … It hit the people passing through our airport [in Atlanta], it ain’t touch them soulful folks,” he continued with his unproven and, if believed, potentially dangerous points.
Instead, people should probably listen to the final piece of good advice on this list, which comes from one of Hollywood’s most beloved famous figures.
