We don’t have freaking covid19 corona virus with a potentially lethal variant on the loose.

ensamy:
Only God knows the type of variant we have in Nigeria, South Africa with her better research facilities can easily sequence the viral nucleic acid molecule and know but Naija nothing nothing just dey do Positive and Negative PCR test .

IronGalaxy:
Are really sure of this? Coming from Nigeria?

jaxxy:
Nigerian May be anything bt we are not sloppy. We not have cases like u guys. We took extreme precautions.

descartes400:
As of this morning, Bryan Adams the Canadian musician, who is fully vaccinated has been diagnosed with covid 19 infection for the second time in a month oo! that's some one who's been fully a vaxxer ooh!

IronGalaxy:
As if we didnt

jaxxy:
Definitely not enough for ur level of exposure. Or else why do u keep having more cases and crazy variants on the loose??

IronGalaxy:
Do you think all 200+ million people of Nigeria are taking precautions than the 54mil of SA? I certainly think there's more to it than just taking precautions. I do see videos of how overcrowded Nigeria is and in those conditions this virus ought to thrive.

TMKsouth:
They hoarded vaccines despite warnings that if they didn't share covid mutations will appear all over the developing world. And now it's happening and they're banning us. True devils. South Africa should reevaluate it's trading relations sigh the UK for this second consecutive ban.

bjtinz:
Moderators please you need to take more decisive actions against peddlers like these. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and likes deletes and bans such posts immediately because they are dangerous.

As a result of their reckless actions and utterances, many have died and may still die.

8. Don't post false information on Nairaland.

Na craze dey worry you.

Starzo:
block them abeg...if possible totally ban other black Africans from ever stepping foot in your country.

That might just spare their lives in the future.

TMKsouth:
SA is good at tracking covid mutations (sequencing) and is transparent with the results. Unfortunately, the world is punishing the country for it and it's crippling the economy.

I seriously don't know why the country has been the most affected in Africa, but 19 million tests have been conducted so that could be the reason.

Total number of cases is now 2.95 million and they are on the rise again, having recorded 2400+ on Thursday - believed to be evidence the country is headed towards the 4th wave. The highest daily record was in July at over 24,000 cases.

Total deaths close to 90,000.

Richy4:
You are 100% correct.. South African is extremely honest and transparent in these COVID war.. more than any other countries in African ... It's unfortunate that the record they were making public comes back to bite the country and it's citizens in the A$$.

jaxxy:
It is not about testing or tracking variants bt by preventing the spread. Why are u guy having so many cases?? U are obviously not doing anything to prevent the spread now u having a variant.

South Africa should go on full lockdown for a month. U are creating problems for the whole world.

descartes400:
But those one or two vaccines as you put it were not injected into our bodies as experimental vaccines which the covid 19 vaccine is and was developed within the pace of one year as against the standard scientific process for vaccines development.

From my perspective, covid 19 vaccine tends to make those who have taken it twice more susceptible to convid19 infection and re-infection.

Awkabigboy:
Who asked south Africa to be sincere? Are the learners to how global economy work? Even China, USA and UK aren't sincere with this stuff bc they don't want limitations by other countries. South Africa should borrow sense abeg

Let's chew on this. SA has a population of 58 million...... the UK 68 million. SA highest daily infection figure was 24 000 in July. UK hit 47 000 on Thursday .... despite 80% of over 12 years old received two doses ..... and 29% of these received three doses. With this stats.... why isn't the UK the one that has a strain that is resistant to the vaccine?

Last year ... of alll the strains ... the Delta strain in hot poor India was singled out and hyped to be the deadly one. People start dropping dead in India as evidence of the claim. To date... that strain has not mutated. Now we turn to SA.... are we going to see people there dropping dead as evidence? ... and the strain infecting people worldwide? ... people being tested positive for the strain? ... like they did for Delta?... never mind the testing does not determine strain. How many booster shots in just one year?... and yet not effective? It is time to introduce a new "highly contagious and deadly strain" to justify and mandate a new round of "vaccines" to everyone.

On January 17, 1961.... in his farewell speech... US President Dwight Eisenhower warned about the Military Industrial Complex .... the government aligning with basically military contractors...... monies for building schools... hospitals... infrastructure would be diverted to the military and democracy will be undermined. Today.... his fears have come to pass ... not with the military... but with the Pharmaceutical Industrial Complex.

passion007:
So?

Which vaccine ever claimed to be 100% effective?

From the very beginning, it was established that the vaccine will prevent severe disease especially among those vulnerable.
No scientist ever said that once you're vaccinated, you'll never get covid. God knows where you read that from.

descartes400:
We are talking about the Covid 19 vaccine here which was hurriedly developed within the pace of 1 year as against the standard scientific process that takes several years to come up with an effective vaccine.

It was never established by any scientist that the covid 19 will prevent severe diseases...
The covid 19 vaccine is way abysmally less effective in preventing covid 19 and tends to acerbate underlying illness and instigate irreversible health issues! Young and older people who were rather healthy are developing heart related issues, some having heart attacks, some developing stroke and paralysis ...more so, it has been said by doctors that younger people who took the vaccine are more subject or susceptible to heart related issues in the future and you tell me the vaccine is handsomely safe?

BRATISLAVA:
You're right about the testing. Higher tests will prove a higher incidence, compared to a country like Nigeria that doesn't really do much testing and vaccinating.

I don't know why the UK is always on about the South African variant. It seems unwarranted, because there are other variants and so many countries crippled by it. Perhaps there's something political about it.

It's interesting to note from the statistics you've shown, that covid isn't that deadly. Thankfully. With the HIV/AIDS prevalence, one would've expected more casualties. But this has been more good news out of Africa. Dark continent winning this one.

Godszilla:
No vaccine is 100% we all agree but this thing is not really a vaccine. I believe they went with calling it a vaccine as that is what most are comfortable and relate with. The thing doesnt contain the covid pathogen that should stimulate your natural defense mechanism matter of fact its bypassing it and acting to reduce its severity. which i thought was bad before the advent of these "vaccine",the so called asymtomatic individuals where derided way back then but now that the vaccine basically makes you asymptomatic its ok. so you can carry the virus and spread as vaccinated and it ok. but its not ok anyway, thats why they are still asking you to mask up and social distance after taking the "vaccine". Why is natural immunity under attacked and never get a sniff?
This thing is not vaccine but gene editing therapy

TMKsouth:
Yeah, 96% recovery rate

Vaccination rate stands at 24% despite dumping AstraZeneca and having long delays waiting for J&J and Pfizer. Now there's an oversupply of vaccines in SA - we asked pharmaceuticals to halt exporting for a while.

Noticed Nigeria only sitting on 1,7% vaccination rate. If this new SA variant indeed is the most transmissible and worst yet much of Africa will be in big trouble with these dismal vaccination rates.

passion007:
I don't indulge in beer parlour gossip.
Just google the multitude of research publications on covid vaccine efficacy and cure yourself of your ignorance

DeMekus:
Nobody hoarded vaccines from you. Rather, it was your government that delayed their delivery. As a result, only a fraction of the population was covered from the little they got from Germany. Then next thing they started telling us that South Africa is capable of producing vaccines locally, and here we are.

TenQ:
Its all about both humidity and temperature.
This seem to favour the transmission of the virus.

Scientists know the solution but they want to reap profit from their investment in vaccine research.
The solution is simple, boost the immune system of the populace against viral infections for a few months and covid will be a thing of the past
