WHY #COVID19 did not spread in Africa like in the West

1. We've been taking anti-malaria drugs all our lives. It's on the counter & you can get it in mini chemists without authorization when people feel fever or high temperature..
2. the food menu contains vegetables and fibre that are sometimes used as herbs too. E.g scent leaf, bitter leaf etc.

Thirdly, the weather has been helpful this year too especially here in Nigeria. It rains and then the sun shines and no Coronavirus can survive that heat...
3. When people go out working, sweating and not under cold weather or AC, which is not even available for many families due to poverty, people can beat #COVID19 easily than those who are living in air conditioned homes and in countries with cold weather....
Lastly, we didn't do test like it is being done in the West. The more people are tested, the higher the number would have been. Its also not clear if Covid 19 test picks up fever, cold and malaria too. All in all, for a continent with less advanced health care, its a miracle.
