HealthRe: If Madagascar Herbal Mixture Was Formulated In USA,UK Or Russia by plaetton: 2:32pm On May 10, 2020
generationz:
Chai, with thw way you are writing, one would think you are the secretary general of WHO.

WHO does this, WHO does that.

You do not know how many times WHO and so-called scientific experts have made and retracted statements based on what is safe and not safe to be consumed.

When dumb Trump the president of the USA told people to use chloroquine, people took it seriously. Even when he told people to use bleach many died from ingesting bleach because Trump said so.

You are so obsessed with systems and structures that you can't see that most of the people at the helm of affairs of these systems don't give a Bleep about your life or that of your loved once.

As I said, science is all about evidence. Evidence has proved that Madagascar hasn't recorded a single death since the outbreak meanwhile major countries in the world you put your trust in and fly to when sick can't even combat the surging death rates.

Nobody is saying they should adopt the cure immediately but looking into it BASED ON EVIDENCE that no one has died is a step in the right direction.

You are like the man who became a professor who went and boarded a boat and started bragging to the fishermen right in the middle of the river how more learned he was than the fisherman. The storm came and it turned out he couldn't swim and had the beg the "illiterate" fisherman to save his life.

There was a time no doctor would have believed that something as simple as the washing of hands saved life. The man who made this discovery Ignaz Semmelweis was disgraced, put in an asylum, and murdered because he dared to destroy years of medical practical knowledge by telling his fellow doctors to wash their hands first before delivering a baby. You can look him up on Wikipedia.

This virus has proved that all the super countries and WHO aren't omniscient. If they did, they wouldn't be overwhelmed by the surging death rates now. Smaller countries are battling the virus better than the bladder nations of the world.

It's okay if you want to wait for WHOs cure just stop putting your faith in systems. They are manned by politicians/humans who put their interests first.
Here we go again.
I will give a C for effort.
I found it hard to follow and understand your points.
But from all the anecdotes you tried to patch up, your summary is that I should not have too much faith in systems.
First and foremost , I'm not a person of Faith, and , scientific rationalism does not rely on faith. TRUST is a better word. Trust in scientific deductions and verifiable facts.

If you don't put your TRUST in systems that are based on scientific rationalism, systems that stand the test of time, systems whose pre-eminence have been proven time and time again, systems that have a built-in audit system and therefore are accountable, ..if you don't put your TRUST in systems, then I assume you will put your trust, your faith as you say it, in witch doctors, herbalists , pastors and prophets ?
That's your choice.

I will cast my lot with the scientific rationalism.

The question is why has WHO not considered the cure and gone on to test it contents to see if it is as safe as Madagascar claim?

Because they don't want a small African country to take the glory if it turns out to be really safe. The fact that nobody has died and a large percentage has recovered should have spurred WHO to look into what in that mixture seems to work.


If you don't think world leaders are playing politics with your health and that of millions around the world, think again.
Very funny the way Africans think. No wonder we are the most scientific and technological under-achievers in the planet.
If the rigors of the scientific method are too difficult for the African mind, then we should all just shut up and wait for scientifically derived medicine to be brought to us from India and China.
We don't have to be exposing our ignorance and stupidity online.

First of all, WHO does not subscribe to pre-science medicine .
It is not the job of WHO to investigate every silly claim by every crackpot in world.
WHO, and might I add, the entire civilized world, are interested in scientifically derived medicine, not voodoo medicine, or your great grandpa's herbal ' mixture' .

In fact, the words ' HERBAL MIXTURE ' is an oxymoron,
and should have no place in modern medicine.

I don't have issue with it, as far as it cures whatever went there for. stop trying to be too much of a white person, b/c no matter how hard you try, u will always be remain a black man. even the white men have their root and herb.
Sad.
So in your mind, being black means taking shortcuts, not thinking something through, not following the vigorous scientific method for the synthesis and manufacture of drugs or compounds for health ?

Well, I do have issues with socalled herbal mixtures. I , and I think everyone, especially doctors and health agencies deserve to know the exact contents, the exact ingredients, right to the minutest details, of what people injest in the name of cures.
It is really that simple.

You really need to have knowledge before you start typing.

Is your problem with the name herbal mixture or the contents of the herbal mixture?

Many lab drugs are made from synthesized chemicals most of which can naturally be gotten from natural leaves and trees.

And what's pre-science about herbal mixture?.

Please seek knowledge before typing.
You still failed to answer my questions.
What exactly is a HERBAL MIXTURE , and would you entrust your health and those of your family to a herbal mixture?
These are very simple questions.

sadwhat is going to happen is that ignorant people will keep pressuring the reps members until they abandon this noble cause, this nonsense conspiracy theories everywhere, if there is no vaccine for this virus, we are all in a terrible situation, and if the ncdc are not truly empowered with a legal framework that will enhance their performance, we are in serious problem, now someone who is knew had covid19 was trying to enter Enugu from delta state isolation center, to spread it further, don't we need a strong law that could empower NCDC to make sure such incidents don't repeat itself again.. For those demonizing bill gate, he is doing fantastic work for humanity, if u can offer solutions Atleast support those that are working hard to help humanity get rid of this pandemic, the micro chip bla bla bla will not help us, the vaccine is for human body but God salvation is through changing the mind of a person towards holiness, the body needs to be healthy first and foremost if not we die
My brother , I weep.
Ignorance is sooo pervasive in this land.
What a comical irony that the poorest and sickest people on Earth are waging a war against vaccines and vaccinations.
I have always said that conspiracy theories appeal mostly to low IQ people.
The Educational system has really failed this generation.
Science education must have really degenerated in this country since I last went to school.

Clowns.

The irony of dressing like clowns to go worship an omni omni invisible god who , at this particular time , appears totally impotent while hundreds of thousands of people are dying, eludes them.

While these clowns are doing their habitual clown show, the adults are busy looking for a scientific cure for the pandemic disease.

Trex4:
nice analysis but I don't believe your book link claim. Which book are you talking about? The Bible? Education was widely supported in the medieval times both writing and reading. There were theological guilds abundant during that time that produced scholars like shakespear. How do we then get our medieval tapestry to depict the events that happened that time like the hundred years war and the crusades? Even outside medieval Europe Arabic scholars were known to employ similar writings to our modern day news which Genghis khan manipulated during his Mongol conquest. Again nice analysis but flawed in that point.
I agree to some extent.
The North's problem is not about lack of education. That is too simplistic.
After all, the North Has produced a lot educated elites/leaders since the colonial era.

The North's problem is the Northern Elites, dominated by the Fulanis. They are the most parasitic class in the world. They leach on their people and on Nigeria. They behave like Arab potentates. They love absolute power and they loathe equality and egalitarianism . They deliberately keep their people uneducated and dependent on handouts, because they themselves depend on and feed fat on federal largesse .
