Didier Drogba, Samuel Eto’o & Demba Ba have criticized 2 doctors who said on French TV that a possible COVID-19 vaccine be tested in Africa, “where there are no masks, treatment or resuscitation.”

“Do not take Africans as human guinea pigs. Africa isn’t your testing lab”-Drogba.
The doctors were talking about the BCG vaccine, initially used to immunize against Tuberculosis, as a potential remedy for COVID-19.

They likened the idea of testing in Africa to testing vaccines on prostitutes "because we know they're unprotected."
