I tend to agree, I find the OP to be in very poor taste - certainly not something to joke about in the current situation.I'm half Chinese and I work in health insurance for the Chinese in the US and the coronavirus is a very serious concern with a lot of people and even I am at risk of infection, so the local forum troll spreading lies about the Chinese during a crisis as troll bait is pretty disgusting to me. This troll has no shame and his racist lies DOES NOT BELONG ON THIS FORUM.




No one is making fun or spread false info about this deadly disease, chill.I'm half Chinese and I work in health insurance for the Chinese in the US and the coronavirus is a very serious concern with a lot of people and even I am at risk of infection, so the local forum troll spreading lies about the Chinese during a crisis as troll bait is pretty disgusting to me. This troll has no shame and his racist lies DOES NOT BELONG ON THIS FORUM.
OP is sarcastic of people making hilarious requests based on irl events.


Wrong again TitanMen!
"In 2019, China's population stands at 1.417 billion" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_China
1.417 billion is still billions. Any decimal number is plural.

This is the most low-effort troll campaign I have ever witnessed.


Human beings aren't decimal points, there are no decimals in the actual number 1,436,964,184 (2020). Therefore this is not a decimal number since there are no "fractional" people.1.417 billion is still billions. Any decimal number is plural.

About a third of the threads on this forum these days are 0 effort trolls.This is the most low-effort troll campaign I have ever witnessed.
They'll ban people for posting odders in a thread about odders, but not for spamming the boards into oblivion. Logic.
Billions is a plural quantifier of billion. It means "an un-specified amount of at least a billion".The grammar clearly states: "As of November 2019, China's population stands at 1.435 billion"
Grammatically, you use the plural quantifier when you want to express an amount in a general term, such as "thousands of intersections", "millions of troll threads on this board" or "billions of people"
