Vanessa Hudgens has been slammed for making what some considered to be insensitive comments about the coronavirus outbreak.

Vanessa Hudgens slammed for remarks about coronavirus, here's what she said

A Queensland senator has shared a controversial message about coronavirus, and some MPs are not impressed.

Larissa Waters, a Green senator, shared a post on her Instagram that claimed coronavirus is “Scomo’s revenge.”

“This coronavirus is actually Scomo’s revenge,” her post read, which Senator Waters credited to the ‘LibLOL’ Facebook page.

“We didn’t shake his hand. Now nobody can shake hands.

“We didn’t like him having an overseas holiday. Now nobody can have an overseas holiday.

“We called him an arsehole. Now nobody can wipe their arseholes.”

I honestly thought this was fake when I first saw it. Incredibly poor taste @larissawaters. Seven Australians have already died and sadly we know many more are likely to. pic.twitter.com/DRQs549ACl — James Paterson (@SenPaterson) March 21, 2020

The post has since been removed, but not before she was slammed by her fellow senators.

Liberal Senator James Paterson from Victoria tweeted: “I honestly thought this was fake when I first saw it.”

He called her post “incredibly poor taste”.

Senator Paterson also added: “Seven Australians have already died and sadly we know many more are likely to” in his tweet.

It comes as the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in Australia has reached more than 1000.

There are 1073 confirmed cases across the country, with 436 in NSW, 229 in Victoria, 221 in Queensland, 90 in Western Australia, 67 in South Australia, 16 in Tasmania, nine in the ACT and five in the Northern Territory.

Seven people have died, six of them in NSW.
