So why isn't covid ravaging Africa right now?

[DavidEaslea]

I don't see people from Cameroon wearing masks outside and social distancing.

[navid93]

The median age for African countries is much lower than other countries. Also they don’t have access to testing so less reported cases.

[DigDeeper1]

Africans gonna African

[nielk]

It is you phuckin idiot

[JT11RTR]

They are exposed to everything and actually have an immune system

[TomWanks]

Because they are already under the control of authoritarian dictatorships. Same with China and Russia. No need to condition them to The New Normal.

The only places where the coof is ravaging are the places where people have any semblance of individual freedom left.

BRB the entire world can't agree on literally anything, but they can all agree simultaneously to close down the borders and lock their citizens in their homes.

[mikebadg3]

Something something bioweapon, forced population control, financially motivated relationships between corporations and local/state/federal governments aka we wuz eugenicists and social engineers

[Azure84]

They're all dead already bro, that's why you don't hear anything about them

[CellyTech]

Because they're all negative and on their way to Europe on boats thats why

[LethalGunz34]

Because it doesn’t fit their political agenda.

[FoxMcCocks]

Super high rate of vaccinations

[yeshli2nuts]

I don't see people from Cameroon wearing masks outside and social distancing.

It is, you fuking idiot.

[lockdev]

They're too busy working for their Chinese slave masters to get covid.

[Soonerjohn]

The leading comorbidity is obesity and age.

They have nothing to eat and have a much lower average span of life.

[q0c0p]

They have to worry about way more hardcore chit over there like ebola, malaria, hippos

[Azure84]

It is, you fuking idiot.

lol.

Africans have much worse things to worry about than a common cold.

[WoofieNugget]

Because nobody cares about Africa. Therefore mainstream media isn't covering it, plus deaths from COVID are probably a small fraction of things like starvation and genocide.

[Muzzlrpress]

They're skinny as fuk and get good cardio.

[frankdtank20]

You can't report cases and deaths if you aren't testing.

[LukeLissen]

good question

the African continent has by far the LOWEST VACCINATION RATES of any heavily populated continent with many countries below 2% and all of them below 20%

however most countries in Africa have MASK MANDATES; the usage of masks is high in Africa

also the use of IVERMECTIN is high in many African countries

[mcm]

There's lots of ivermectin in Africa

yes, but the price has gone through the roof,

In Nairobi, Kenya where I live a 12mg tab goes for $ 11, it was $1 earlier on in the year, not too many can afford a 24mg per day 5 day dose, it has been speculated that mass BCG vaccination at early ages could be a factor in low infection rates.

Median age in Africa is 19.7 years, obesity is very rare, as several posters have said, we have bigger problems than covid, media has tried to instill fear and dread, worked well in early days, but most of us have decided to live our lives

[thadderbox]

There's lots of ivermectin in Africa

This.

It's being prescribed for nearly everything.

[BrosefMengele]

Because it doesn’t fit their political agenda.

Yeah Covid is weirdly selective about that

[Jkm94]

Just like Covid isn't ravaging millions of homeless people.

It's overblown as fuk!

[seanb1979]

If you get sun and are pretty fit, covid has very little effect on mortality.

[lolatpaniccels]

The median age for African countries is much lower than other countries. Also they don’t have access to testing so less reported cases.

a virus so deadly you need testing to know if there is a pandemic going on

L M F A O.

[HannoCometh]

They don't sell Corona beer in most of Africa, however you can sometimes get Corona beer in selected stores in southern South Africa.

[Workout4ever]

they take ivermectin for other diseases

they get alot of sun

they are not obese

[bernipes]

I always say that data without context misinforms more than it informs, and your statement is the perfect example of that.
Besides being under dictatorial rule (dig a little deeper into your example Cameroon), where information is not necessarily a strong suit, most African countries don't have enough testing.
Please understand that the world is much more complex and contextually diverse than the United States of America.

[Yoopwat]

It is, you fuking idiot.

Except that’s Angola you fuking idiot.
