There are plenty of reasons that mortality should be higher there: non-existent or bad medical care, iffy nutrition, grinding poverty, HIV rates, endemic malaria.
Oh, right malaria. What's that stuff that people take to ward off malaria? Hydroxy something?
It could be that they’re not testing many people in third world dumps, and the Beer Flu is in the noise compared to things like Malaria.
My guess is that almost all of Africa is ruled by failed corrupt regimes that exploit their people, keep them uneducated and living in abject poverty, corrupt or destroy any civil system including healthcare, and will tell whatever lie to the west to gobble up any money they possibly can from charities and foreign governments to continue the vicious cycle.
I think it’s a potent combo of Hydroxy Something, herd immunity, lack of screaming media, and lack of a political party that thinks it has to keep fear going strong at least until an election.
I'm not sure what at sea has to do with their loss of words and explanations. Once they get back on land, it won't be much better.
And, maybe Africa is actually reporting deaths of real Covit19 cases and not saying that people that died of say, cancer, head on car crashes, drownings, getting trampled by Hippos, lion maulings, etc., and not calling all those dying of the virus instead!! Truth sometimes hurt. Here, massive numbers help keep the country shut down, claiming more deaths, etc. to use against Trump. Africa doesn’t have a Trump to trash and blame. Commies here in what is left of the Republic have Trump, Christians, conservatives, gun owners, military members, NRA, football fans, etc. to blame it all on.
It would be very interesting to see what percentage of the population takes that medication. Especially broken down by age. Older people are much more susceptible to c o v i d. Much more susceptible to anything so perhaps they are on this medication more for malaria than the younger folks.
India is a mystery too
excellent...hydroxy and lots of sunshine!
A friend who is in Africa is sending me some HCQ. It is sold over the counter in country she is in.
There are plenty of reasons that mortality should be higher there: non-existent or bad medical care...
There you have it. My theory is that medical care, not medical error but standard, approved medical care accounts for most of the deaths credited to Covid. My wife was given up for dead at a major hospital but, not wanting to have her tortured in her last hours on earth, the family refused to permit intubation. Annoyed that we wouldn't allow her to be placed in a ventilator, the hospital bundled her up without stabilizing her and shipped her back to hospice care where she completely recovered and is still alive months later.
Yes. Countries in the malaria belt have broad use of HCQ and minimal death rates due to china flu. No mystery at all, and these liars know it full well.
Average age is 17 in Africa. Average in the US is 37 or so—and older in Europe.
LOL. Maybe the Africans are phsically superior. A different bell curve with Whitey at the bottom. Ironic.
Could it be...gee...I don’t know....that many are already taking a certain drug for malaria? And could the same thing be happening in....gee...i don’t know..India?
Several doctors have recently said they have been treating the Chinese Virus successfully with several different medicines, even ICU stage. I notice the common feature is the different medicines are all anti-parasite meds, like Hydroxylchloroquine is.
Not too many old, fat, diabetic Kenyans would be my guess.
The average life expectancy across the whole continent was 61 years for males and 65 years for females. Not many 80 and 90 year olds. The folks with diabetes and heart disease die early. Not that much obesity.
I read somewhere it’s because they are on HCQ for malaria.
Maybe a simple reality. People with type O blood seem to be protected against getting Covid 19 and surviving better.
Type O!
If anyone remembers gen 1 hiv antibody testing, they would understand. 1 in 20 lol. Seriously, the writer should take a stat class.hiv was going to kill all too. The glove industry was and has been happy with your taxpayer dollars. Now its the beautiful union of complete and utter submission.
The masks feel like a hijab.
