Dear Western World, Africans Are Not Lab Rats, Do It On Your People

Who are Africans to most of these “developed” nations? How do they view the African continent? They see Africans as fools, poor, corrupt and rats. That is how they look at Africa.

The deadly Coronavirus has killed and infected more people in their countries than in the whole of Africa combined. Instead of worrying for their countries, they stand and ask,”Why are Africans not dying?”

The fools from the West are so much focused on finding out why Africans aren’t dying as much as they should from Coronavirus to the point of forgetting about their own countries where the pandemic is sweeping across like bushfire.

If a vaccine was to be discovered, where do you think the trials should take place? China? Italy? Spain? The United Kingdom? The United States of America? Practically, yes. That is what should happen because those countries are the epicenter of the pandemic. But no. It has to be done in Africa on Africans.

Two French doctors, who I will refer as fools in this piece, think that the new vaccine must be tested on Africans first before the rest of the world can be allowed to use. In other words, these two fools think that we are lab rats who should be used as collateral damage for Covid19.

“If I can be provocative, shouldn’t we carry out this study in Africa, where there are no masks, no treatment, no resuscitation, a bit like it has been done in some studies in AIDs, where among prostitutes, we try things that because they are exposed,” said one fool in the name of Dr. Jean-Paul Mira.

Why didn’t the fool suggest the vaccine to be tried in Paris where the death toll as a result of Coronavirus is mounting? Why didn’t he talk of the United States of America, where now 1,000 people are dying daily? Why didn’t he talk of the United Kingdom where deaths are now 1200 per day? Is it because Africa carries children of a lesser god?

Dear Western world, know this; Africans are not lab rats. Do it on your children.
