Still just amazes me how fast articles about COVID in Africa began to appear a couple of months ago almost instantly after a major news article appeared pondering why Africa had comparatively few COVID cases.

Can I get a *Yawn* people!

When you live in a continent where nobody is fat and life expectacy is 63, a disease that kills people only fat people and those over 65, you got bigger things to worry about... like diseases where worms or blood comes out your eyes.

Africas population is going to triple by 2100 while the white population is crashing.

Western Europe will be all black and no one will be able to stop the migration

A positive test result doesn’t necessarily mean a positive case of covod.

Third world tests likely result in third world results.

They skipped over the sub-Sahara belt (e.g., Congo, Uganda, Nigeria, etc) countries that take Ivermectin and HCQ with their breakfast Wheaties (due to malaria and parasites). Those countries have very low CoVid rates. Granted, you could argue that is due to the younger population, and lack of obesity, in those countries -- but it is also true that the use of ivermectin and HCQ is widespread, and their CoVid rates are very low.

And Ivermectin. Last study I saw showed that the Central African countries with the highest long term ivermectin use had the lowest wuflu infection rates...

“When you live in a continent where nobody is fat and life expectacy is 63, a disease that kills people only fat people and those over 65...”

Now, you are one smart very character! Want a novel idea? Instead of vax passports, let’s have BMI passports. Anyone above 23 BMI has their jaw wired shut. All the fat people who are causing the hospital beds to fill up with diabetes and who develop covid will just go away. Like magic.

And then we can have a pill that is forced on everyone (mandate) that makes you die when you hit 65. Oh, wait. We already have that. It’s called the covid vax.

Oh, well.

---- "Continent Nears 10.5 Million Confirmed Cases of Covid-19"

Oh no! Headlines! Whatever shall we do?

As of 20 January 2022, according to this posted news item,

( 234,891 "official" Covid deaths in Africa / 1,390,035,633 Africans ) x 100 = ~ 0.017 %

Less than two one-hunredths of one percent in TWO YEARS.

Give it a break Nick, it is 2+ years of this fake bullshit and nobody but idiots still buy the lies.

None of this horror was necessary.
