"Noisy Chinese virus"

Bus around 11 PM. On the bus, many people were speaking in normal voices. My classmate and I, both Asian, spoke quietly, yet a person in the front suddenly turned, raised his fist, and called me a "noisy Chinese virus," threatening to strangle me. Luckily, the bus was nearing a stop, and I quickly got off, ignoring his threats.
