I have seen many takes on the vaccine drama on the African continent. And truly honestly you gotta love Africans who willingly get naive just bcz somehow they think the west can be ingenious

But let me break it down for you . There are protocols but rarely followed for Africans
1. Vaccine trials have already started. And for the steps to try them on humans, I was asked of I am interested to participate as one of recovering patients. There are guidelines , and reasons why the recovered are being asked with options to willingly agree or not agree.
2. Africans countries have always been the free place of clinical trials especially with large pharmaceutical companies and zero accountability

History records unbelievable human rights abuses and forced medical procedures just like on animals

For some; africans are the animals
3. Just because two french went on live TV and gave you typical home basic racism on Africa where we have humans less valuable, that doesn't mean what they proposed was a random idea. It's a routine. They have always felt our lives are meaningless
4. The meningitis testing in Nigeria killed more than 30 children who were involved in Pfizer drug trojan trial. Others suffered blindness, deafness and brain damage .

This happened in Kano, Nigeria. And these lives matters
5. The AZT trials on HIV positive subjects. The trials were testing new methods for preventing the spread of HIV infection from pregnant women to their babies. I cannot go in the mess of these trials. It was a lot. These women were subjected to tremendous dehumanization
7. No one is denying if a vaccine is well developed for Covid 19, Africans can benefit on it.

We are saying that the french doctor who said trials should be done on Africans since anyways they don't protect themselves, is a common narrative on how african lives are disposable
8. History show us that developing countries populations mainly the africans are considered as the animals to try on the newest drugs. People died, continue die and will continue to die

Read a report of unethical clinical trials https://www.somo.nl/examples-of-unethical-trials/
9. And remember African lives being disposable and meaningless is rooted in whiteness as a constructed and the very core function of racism.

It's an ugly world beloveds!!
