InvertedHammer: Some years ago, the VC of one of Nigeria's larger universities made a speech , in which he made two comments 1. He commented that his overhead (for the university) was N600million ...and government gave him N150Million 2.He then made the comment that if you wanted Cambridge level degrees, then pay Cambridge level fees. Nigerian professors can do research on covid treatments. The problem is, these cost money. A lot of money. And our universities and research institutes do not have the money to fund such research. Our pharma companies are not large enough to fund such research. Our universities do not have the money to pay for the kind of facilities that can enable such research to be done. Our budget for education isn't even up to $5billion...and that is for education as a whole , not just universities. That is why ASUU keeps on going on strike, and yet, you guys think it is all about the salary. And that is why our scientists can only do high grade research abroad...like the Nigerian who co-discovered a novel treatment for sickle cell disease...because we don't have the funds and resources to do the kind of research we should do HERE in this country. Like now, one of our teaching hospitals in 2019 got $10million as its overall budget. A similar teaching hosptial in the states spent $750million dollars same year on research. Just part of their budget. So why won't the US be doing research in COVID, and Nigeria can't.? Let's not even get started on fees. The big universities can raise funds because they charge very high fees of $20000-50000, or tax rates of 50% of one's salary, or tax to gdp ratios of 30-50%. Here in Nigeria, the average fees in our state and federal universities is not up to $1000 a session. Our tax rate is 0-24% and our tax to gdp ratio is 6.1% (and even then, our gdp is very low compared to some other countries) What you are doing amounts to mocking the child of poor parents who has not eaten in two days for not doing well enough in his exams, compared to his relatively rich classmate who has the money for food and scholastic materials. And a lot of religious people do scientific research...what's your own mocking them? |

It may be thrown out the window as it doesn't fit into Bill Gates narrative that everyone must be vaccinated. |

Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine are cheaper. However, it is okay for an additional drug to be available. Treatment/prevention with drugs is preferable to the covid-19 "vaccine". |
