Will President John Magufuli save the world? (statistics, death, government)

[usernametaken]

Tanzania is a large country of 60 million people. It is home to Mt. Kilimanjaro, Serengeti, Zanzibar and many other renowned tourism hotspots.

The country never shut down in 2020. The president Mr. John Magufuli does not believe in Covid-19, vaccines, shutdowns, masks etc. He has said that the virus is even present in fruits, vegetables and meat.

This week, his message seems to have also resonated with the neighboring nation of Burundi.

Will these two African nations save the world?

And now South Africa suspends AstraZeneca. Can they afford the far more expensive mRNA vaccines and store them in cold temperatures?

uh..no...from the article you linked:


The president has resisted imposing strict lockdowns to contain the virus and his government has faced criticism over its secrecy regarding the outbreak in the East African nation, which has not published official COVID-19 statistics for more than six months.




If he posts real time data and it proves that no precautions or prevention results in no mass infections/ death, let's take a look. But not reporting any data? Suspicious.

To my astonishment I found one or two new graves per graveyard, with the newest one dated in June.

Maybe we can trade presidents with them.

Nah, but it'd be a good spot for an enterprising travel agency to offer tours to for those Americans who like Magufuli do not believe in Covid-19, vaccines, shutdowns, masks etc.. Of course we'd have to bar them from returning home should they test positive for Covid before boarding their return flights.
