WASHINGTON, March 10 (Xinhua) -- Several legal groups have demanded an Ohio judge apologize after he used the term "China Virus" in a column published in a local bar association's newsletter, local media reports said.
Lake County Common Pleas Court Judge John P. O'Donnell used the term "China Virus" three times in his article in the Lake Legal Views while addressing how he handled his duties during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Lake County Bar Association distributed the edition to its members last Wednesday, which quickly ignited a firestorm in the legal community.
