One of the reasons for this may be the prophylaxis for malaria. Many people in Africa, from what I have read and heard, take hydroxychloroquine to prevent malaria. Early on in the pandemic it became clear that some people seemed resistant to the virus. Those with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and those on prophylactic malaria drugs did not get COVID. They were taking hydroxychloroquine. The the main stream media made it political because President Trump mentioned it as a potential treatment. How many people did the media and the CDC, FDA, NIH, and NIAID kill by politicizing treatments?

They also take ivermectin for river blindness. And there’s much less obesity in some areas

They went thru typical pandemic waves in the beginning but they are not experiencing anything like the west is now. I think another reason is so few are vaccinated. It’s obvious the VAX is increasing spread

Yes, the mRNA vaccines are increasing spread. This was brought up during Senator Ron Johnson's conference COVID 19: A Second Opinion

Dr. Parks gave the scientific explanation as to why and the other doctors discussed this.

Yes and limited vaccine update is limiting their populations vulnerability to Omicron which appears to be a mutation of something that was endemic previously by 2019 AND NOT A CoV2 variant.

Yes. It’s cheap and easy to get over there

Bring some back. Looks like another illness has escaped a lab in China and may be coming here. I have been reading reports of a hemorrhagic fever. Not sure if the hydroxychloroquine will work against it but Ivermectin should. At any rate hydroxychloroquine has a 60 year record track record of safety.
