Are Africa’s Low Covid Death Rates Really A Mystery?

Despite low vaccination rates, countries across the African sub-continent reported few cases and Covid-related deaths

Covid-19 was expected to ravage the unvaccinated populations of Central and West African countries as the pandemic began to rip through the continent. But something curious happened – or did not happen – which has left scientists baffled.

Counties such as Sierra Leone, with eight million people and where malaria, Ebola, TB, and HIV have caused such devastation, have registered very few cases and barely any covid deaths; 123 in total, with Kamakwie district having reported just 11 cases and no deaths since the pandemic began.

I know a guy who visits Sierra Leone regularly for work

He nearly drowned when a car he was in rolled-over into a giant, rain-filled pot-hole, typical on the country’s dirt highways, as they swerved to avoid a truck speeding right at them. Its Africa, after all.

They don’t have Covid deaths because they do no testing, can’t afford it, and wouldn’t do anything about it even if they did.

Covid is a first-world problem.

A couple of likely factors. First, the African population is generally younger. And it’s not normal in Africa to sit around on welfare, or work at sedentary paper pusher jobs, so they’re more likely to be in better physical condition. Add to that, that actual beer flu symptoms tend to be nothingburgers compared to the diseases that regularly circulate around Africa and the tropics, they probably don’t care about or test for COVID that much.

nope

no mrna white people killing death shots there

those were reserved for america, canada, europe and australia

on purpose to wipe out the white populations.

the future deagle population predictions - before thwy were scrubbed off the internet - for the future all have the white countries populations down huge percentages, over half, by 2025, while asia, africa, south america, mideast, and russia are at stable levels or growing.

It was not bad anywhere. It was all exaggeration, lies, and corruption.

RE: Counties such as Sierra Leone, with eight million people and where malaria, Ebola, TB, and HIV have caused such devastation, have registered very few cases and barely any covid deaths;

The standard explanation is that we cannot trust African data because of their very poor and unreliable data gathering/collection abilities. Not saying that I believe this explanation, but that’s always been western explanation.

--- "Supposedly it was bad in India...."

As of 7 April 2022, JHU reports 521,530 Covid deaths in India across twenty-seven months.

So....

( 521,530 Covid deaths in India / 1,403,717,340 population ) x 100 = 0.037 % mortality rate over more than two years. The yearly number would be less than half that.

Trust the data? Not trust the data? Then why no asterisks in the reporting by all the "official" data reporters?
