1) Corona could not have been here for 100 days (that's early Jan) without choking our hospitals or at least having most of us infected by now. We are not a different species.
2) On clinical trials for the vaccines - it's not going to be conducted here. It's actually sad that antivaxxers have won the psychological anti-science game on this one with their conspiracy theories. On the flipside - what have africans done for the world? a few of us being part of a GLOBAL test would be the only contribution you will have made for this disease and if you wonder if I would submit myself to clinical trials - sure! I would.
3) the huge epidemic will come if you don't take care of yourselves. This is AFRICA!!
@Masukuma,I strongly believe it landed in January or even Dec 2019.My conviction is based on 3 cases of people close to me who were sick around that time and other cases I have had from those dates.Cases with similar symptoms and healing pattern.Thank God for ignorance coz if the same had occurred today in the COVID season they would have died of panic than from the disease.
They took drugs and concoctions believing it's a normal cold/flu and fought it off.
The bottom line being yes we are getting infected but not getting severe hence no mass cases in hospital.
Jan 2020? are Africans a different species altogether?
We all agree that the disease is infectious as f*ck!! Let's assume that the disease manifests differently for Kenyans (not Africans - since we can see cases increasing all over the place). does it not infect us that much? no social distancing for 100 days, kissing, hugging, coughing, shaking hands... 100 days and there is no trace other than anecdotal stories of "a bad flu"? We are testing people now and each person who is tested seems to have spread it to others - this "normal" behaviour of Covid is manifesting now but not 100 days ago?
the only way for the people with "a bad flu" to determine whether they had covid is to get both and tell us IF THEY WERE THE SAME.
Why arent our hospitals full? this disease is very infectious and when it gets people with immunocompromised systems. People with HIV and poor diets - it f***s them up. I personally know 2 people who had it and the fever is UNBELIEVABLE. It leaves them very very weak. One is a Kenyan living abroad and he was f*cked up - no voice for a few days. chest like a truck resting on it. He is better now. you want to tell me that we would have an infectious disease that travels that fast and we wouldn't notice it?
Are Kenyans a different species?
