Is the people there v hostile to tourist? Asian in general?

I'm based in London. So far, nobody seems to be outwardly bothered about coronavirus. Nobody is wearing masks, and sanitisers are readily available and well-stocked in the pharmacies. I haven't heard or seen hostile behaviour towards tourists. If there's hostile behaviour, it's more likely to be usual London behaviour (e.g. a tsk if you block other people on the escalators) rather than specific behaviour towards tourists.
It's business as usual. Chinatown continues to as vibrant as always. Perhaps things might change if the virus starts spreading throughout the community.
Since no one has mentioned, I’d like to recommend British Airways. It’s a non-stop flight to LHR and I really like the comfort of their economy class / premium economy class seats. If possible, choose the economy class seats on the A380 upper deck. Alternatively the economy class seats on the 777-300ER are the same and just as good. Depends on which aircraft type you like to fly. Both are spacious but the A380 is a lot quieter. Catering is decent but then again SQ isn’t that fantastic these days so not really a point for comparison.
Weak points: IFE isn’t as good as Krisworld on SQ. Toiletries are non-existent in the economy class cabin unlike SQ.
Then again, BA fares are often cheaper than SQ for the 11pm red eye flights to LHR.
