so Trump received the same index like South Korea at the same time?
From WHO?

Seriously, what you on about?

Both USA and S/Korea had their index case on Jan 20th 2020.

However, as of March 13th S/Korea had close over 200,000 tested, while a whole USA was battling with just about 11,000. A monumental failure on their part which even Dr Fauci conceded. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/13/coronavirus-testing-us

And today, we all know the difference in outcomes between the two countries.

Almost all the measures out in place by previous admins to check spread of infectious diseases were revoked by Trump.
AS the former director of CDC almost prophetically said about two years ago: "We can either help other countries stop disease outbreaks abroad or fight them here at home," said Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the CDC from 2009 to 2017. "If funding for global health security isn't found, CDC will have to retreat from the front lines of fighting not terrorism but terrible organisms in 30 countries
https://edition.cnn.com/2018/02/03/health/cdc-slashes-global-epidemic-programs-outrage/index.html

And here we are. Who knows, perhaps this could have been avoided. And now he has stopped funding WHO, and you guys are haling him. Hehehehe. I laff in evil laugh. . . undecided undecided

Anyway. I know there's nothing I will say that will change your idolization of Trump, So feeel free to continue.

Trump fell into their WHO trap. And Trump opens their Pandora's box, turning the heat on their a$$. And Bill Gates comes out of the woodwork to lead his cohorts, as other previously fronts men run into hiding. Trump is too much for them.
Game on.

I doubt if things would have been any worst if Aso Rock is devoid of an occupant.....Decisions that Trump makes affect ordinary Nigerians positively or negatively than anything PMB will ever do, therefore in that sense he is our President.
WHO is currently in CCP pocket...so China should pay more. ...

with respect to Buhari and Nigeria, could it get any worse?

The US pays over 14%, + Bill Gates nearly 10%, + other US-based NGOs, altogether no less than 35% . And if Trump wins in November, which what all this is about, he'll shake up a lot of things.

So the MANIPULATORS in the woodworks, taking more than their pro rata, are in overdrive to ensure Trump doesn't win. But they have the American voters to contend with, & Trump is communicating with the voters, effectively.

Don't expect Nairalanders to understand, that by America First, & MAGA, Trump is reversing the monumental sabotage America has suffered, from the consistent OUTSOURCING of the economy by the Wall Street in New York, to China, in order to CRIPPLE America.

Nairalanders may not understand, that the Wall Street built, owns, & sustains both Communist Russia & China. They can't understand that Technology & Capital, OWNED by Wall Street, being transferred to Shanghai for decades, is why Communist China opened up other regions to the Wall Street.

And suddenly, Trump is REVERSING things, with the backing of, not the powerful Wall Street moguls, but the American voters, who were being PAUPERIZED intalmetally by unemployment, loan defaults, mortgage troubles, etc.
Then steps in the Orange head New Yorker, DONALD J TRUMP.

what do alot of nairalanders know. Sometimes I don't respond to quotes on a faceless forum because the man on the other end might just be a chronic simpleton. Trump is the most patrotic president to lead America. He's winning a second, not even the brain dead running candidate can stop him, his base is too strong, relief check is being delivered as we speak, that was the icing on the cake. The corona virus was not entirely his fault at all, shutting down an economy is not as easy as many think, the case would have be either worse or better but to put the entire blame on him isn't worth it. I always admire his street smart, he immediately offloaded the blame to who by cutting off funding, thats clever of him coz America will need that fund anyway.

What do WHO use the money for. Flying first class and booking luxury hotels. They have been compromised by China and why don't China pick up shortfall. USA is indebted to mostly China of about USD20T. WHO refused to give out vital info about COVID 19 that would have saved life. There are other better health organizations that will make better use of the money. I don't want to write much. U know the truth. Meanwhile Trump is the best thing that happened to this world.

Trump supporters are usually so dumb that it is a miracle that they can get by.
I am not supposed to reply to you based on your inherent cognitive disability but I will try.
I know the only language you understand is the short incoherent sentence tha Trump strings together.
I will try to mimic him for your sake.

The US has never trusted China, the CIA's job is to reveal the true situation.
Trump was warned in November, December, and January but he ignored the warning.


When the first case was discovered in the US on January 20, Trump did nothing.

Wuhan was locked down on January 23, Trump did nothing and label it a hoax.

When 15 cases were discovered, Trump said it will disappear quickly.

Till date, Trump is against lockdown, the governors are in charge.
Trump even wanted to force open the lockdown in some states.

Trump is in charge of claiming victory or blaming others.

The most useless and irresponsible president America has ever had.
I understand if any of his policies have affected you. But Trump is the gratest president they ever had. Every country should pray for such a leader. Job, No wars, Diplomacy & Negotiations with other countries etc. Imagine if every country was like the USA before the pandemic ( which Trump can easily bring back), the world will be a better place. I'm not saying he is perfect but China f*cked everybody when it comes to COVID 19. America is a very difficult place to govern cos of bill of rights and stuff unlike these Asian countries. Also remember the heavy criticisms from Democrats and WHO when Trump stopped flight from China to US to stop the spread of the disease.

This is simply because wicked people like you and negligence of the useless leaders on the African continent. Sorry if I was being too plain but that’s the truth.

ANALYSIS:

WHO strongly knew about this CORONAVIRUS first but they seems like they hide it from the world

While

POTUS means (the President of the United States), I don't think that knew about this CORONAVIRUS.

Note: Information is power.

So, WHO MESSED UP.

You don't understand how powerful America is. The US is privy to EVERY Intel and has eyes and ears in all the nook and crannies of this world.

Trump had issues with the CIA, hence he down played intelligence offered him since last year.

I've always marveled at the near obsessive compulsive need of some empty minions here to defend the action of the hero in chief. Its a mental issue and many of you guys should seek help.

Like I maintained, even if their may be legitimate grievances, you dont defund RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BLEEPING CRISIS!!!

Why not wait till the crisis is over, at least?

Much of the response here in Nigeria, part of why we are to contain this extent, is due to technical support from WHO.

Yet, many of the empty, useless, worthless, Trumptard worshipers are clutching their tecno y2 phones with borrowed 5MB data and typing rubbish.

WHO has done a great job. But, as is the case in most instances, there is room for improvement.
God Bless u my Bro,
Only if they know the extent of damage that clown is doing to America and WORLD PEACE.. Most of his surporters are RASCIST whites AND IMMIGRANTS LIKE OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS who could barely get jobs or were underpaid/underemployed before Mr Trump came in and closed borders to immigrants and all sorts of nonsense..Now they get more jobs and double pay, all at the expense of America's Humanitarianism and hospitality dats responsible for their own particular presence in America..
So You don't blame them for surporting such an irrational and erratic man who has drawn battle lines with virtually every country of the world even its Allies, cancelling one treaty or the other, disengaging bilateral and Multilateral relations..
NOTE : B4 they come for me, MY FIRST visit to the US was well over a decade ago, so its not a dream haven for me.. I'M ALSO NOT A CHINESE APOLOGETIC, but the TRUTH is dat AMERICA WILL NOT BE THE WORLD POWER FOREVER..BEFORE AMERICA, THERE WERE WORLD POWERS, AFTER AMERICA THERE WOULD BE WORLD POWERS.. whether democratic or COMMUNISTS, Good or bad.. Its Life.. .. Trump is only facilitating the process and teaching other countries of the world not to be over reliant on America after this whole saga..
LOL.. SOME here, even think they are in safe haven already because they have greencards or in view thereby Taunting their fellow Nigerians here on Nairaland.. WAIT FOR TRUMP and his COHORTS PART 2..even Obama heard "Wien" as a siting president with birth conspiracies..

Are u a dumb teenager or just averse to knowledge?



You really shouldnt mind these nigerians. Like the one I quoted above. I worked with an NGO in Abuja for a while called APIN (Aids prevention in Nigeria). They have clinics in hospitals and teaching hospitals all over the country. Once u are HIV positive in Nigeria, u are directed to their clinics & u get free antiretrovirals and vitamins from this agency. FREE!!! And they are doing this in many African countries with high HIV rates.
This organization is heavily funded by the bill gates foundation & USAID and follow WHO guidelines. Do people think its the FG giving these HIV positive people free drugs? Men, women & little children. Do they know the death rates dt would have occured from our high HIV rates without these drugs? Do they think normal africans can afford these drugs? All the vaccines in our hospitals are also free or highly subsidized by NGO's (funded by these organizations: who, bill gates foundation, usaid, dfid), not the FG.
Thank you bro for your point, this over people don,t know what bill gate has been contributing on global health issues
