Much of the population has been routinely taking Ivermectin for years. Also hydroxychloroquine.

Which invalidates the Emergency Use Authorization for Pfizer and the others and exposes them to liability for their Jim Jones Jab.

Yes the psychopaths are extremely frustrated.

Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates and all of the euthanasia crowd at Big Pharm have been found out. In Canada people are mounting Fuck Trudeau bumper stickers as thyey try to weater out the storm of truth they now control via social platfporms and te MSM that they own.

Anyone taking an mRNA innoculation now has to be completely ignorant or a trusting Darwin award fool.

Rand Paul may very well beome a world hero. The word needs to get out through all of the crap maintained on Facebook and the MSM whichi still lies about IVM.

We are giaining. The NWO is in retreat......they have once again gone incognito after floating their trial balloons. Trudeau in Canada thinks he can take all of our firearms......but what he proposes will be unenforceable. People will not lay down for it.

We need to whack these psychopaths really hard.

Could it be that the ignorant, backward, uneducated citizens of Africa know more about the disease than the world’s greatest woke ‘scientists’?

True that.

I love how when something new happens and experts weight in, like what happened with Convid, they are full of BS. Nobody can be an “expert” about something that never happened before.

HCQ
Sun (vit D)
IVM
Natural immunity

Actually, no, it is not. HCQ stopped being effective against malaria in Africa decades ago. It is not widely taken there. In fact, it hasn’t been used in so long that a couple of strains that are not chloroquine-resistant have recently been discovered in Uganda.

See: https://www.science.org/do/10.1126/science.aaf9947/full/four.jpeg

Ivermectin is also not widely taken. In very specific areas where river blindness or elephantiasis is endemic, it is taken once or twice per year. For intestinal worms, it’s a one-and-done deal.

There is likely a combination of reasons for the lower rate of Covid in Africa. Younger population, fewer people living in buildings with HVAC, lower rate of obesity, fewer comorbidities, more sunshine, etc.

Almost everyone over the age of five living in areas where malaria is endemic have natural immunity and take no antimalarial medications. The development of natural immunity to malaria is an interesting process. Malaria parasites are tricky little devils and switch up the proteins expressed on their surfaces to evade our immune systems. This might be why there is higher resistance to Covid in Africa.

It’s a known fact that for airborne viruses, natural herd immunity is the ONLY sure path to relegating it to the dustbins of hysteria...😎

No one in our house is vaxxed, and no one had ever had covid. Taking HCQ, zinc, and the various vitamins.

In my immediate family, one daughter took the first shot, The rest skipped it. We all got Covid at one point or another, got over it and moved on to enjoy our pureboood lives.

Almost 80% of the population in sub-saharan Africa have anti-bodies to COVID while fewer than 6% have been vaccinated which means COVID is widely prevalent.
In Zambia, 87% of the bodies in one hospital’s morgue were infected with COVID.
There have been between 1 million and 2.9 Million excess deaths.
South African, a country with a robust health care system unlike the rest of Africa, reported over 250,000 excess deaths between may 2020 and Sep 2021.

Bottom line: COVID is rampant in Africa, killing hundreds of thousands if not millions but there is little testing for COVID therefore there are few reports of COVID.

Ref your second link with the map constructed by an idiot Twitter user. It’s all hokum. See:

https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4015279/posts?page=30#30

https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4015279/posts?page=34#34

https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4015279/posts?page=52#52

https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4015279/posts?page=57#57

The idiot Twitter user went by an unpublished “study” by a couple of Japanese radiologists(!) who got the bright idea to compare Covid deaths in APOC countries (a program that no longer existed), and wrongly assumed that everyone in the whole country was taking ivermectin, when in fact, both under the old APOC program and the new ESPEN program, it was only given in specific villages. And it was only one dose, once per year, sometimes twice per year and in some areas, a 5-day course was used.

“JOHNS HOPKINS was not the source of the entire graphic posted at #19. The source was the NOQ Report, which got it from The Unz Report which republished it from Paul Craig Roberts who got it from “Kbirb” on Twitter who created that graphic based on a Japanese study here: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.03.26.21254377v1.full-text

This study divided up Africa into “ivermectin countries” vs “non-ivermectin countries” based on the old APOC program (as you can see from footnote #7 (now a dead link because APOC is defunct). Footnote #6: https://www.afro.who.int/health-topics/onchocerciasis Here, you can see an see an interesting map from 2015: https://gamapserver.who.int/mapLibrary/Files/Maps/Onchocerciasis_2015.png

It appears the graphic tweeted by Kbirb was created by or for her (see her Twitter handle @birb_k in upper right corner) or at least she is claiming credit. It appears she (or whoever created it) went to the Johns Hopkins site and plugged in the “ivermectin countries” vs the “non ivermectin countries” in the interactive section for Covid deaths to generate the graphs, then superimposed them on an old APOC map and voila.

So, yes, perhaps the graphs were generated on the Johns Hopkins site, but they were based on faulty assumptions (garbage in, garbage out). There is also another problem with her graphs: they show raw numbers of deaths (which does not take into account the differing populations of these countries), not deaths per million (which does).”

Also:

“Just as an example, because Mozambique is nearly all purple on that map, while neighboring Tanzania is purple-free, let’s look at Covid rates in those countries. Cumulative cases per million in Mozambique are much higher (5,000) than in Tanzania (500). The opposite of what one would expect if ivermectin worked. Or how about Guinea, nearly all purple, with around 2,300 cases per million (cumulative) vs about 1,200 in neighbouring purple-free Liberia. Again the opposite of what one would expect if ivermectin worked.”

On top of that as few as 10% of all deaths (all cause) are reported in some sub-Saharan countries. Anyone familiar familiar with the situation in countries such as Mali, the train wreck known as CAR, the DRC, etc., can see why.

how did a virus, so close to the original lab leak strain, get to Africa without being anywhere else first

I'll take a wild guess it has something to do with the increasing Chinese presence in Africa.

It would appear that the magical path to zero-covid is to stop testing and reporting for COVID.
This is just like all the reporting of the successes of ivermectin in Uttar Pradesh pass out a lot of snake oil, don’t test, don’t report...
