After all the whites knew they are very close to rhessus monkey while Africans are close to black breed of monkey.
We humans knew ourselves very well after all

Most of our people believe they are too dumb to question anything foreign...

It's like Boxer and Napoleon in George Orwell's Animal Farm!!!

Yes. I'm damn serious.
Since you say Coronavirus is a hoax, the vaccine should also be a hoax.

If they inject you, it shouldn't have any effect.

The reality is that if an African scientist develops a cure like Senegal and Madagascar has done so far in treating patients the western media will not give it much attention, they will rather focus on vaccines to make money for their big pharmaceuticals.

It was in the process of experimenting with African green monkeys that HIV came about and they claimed that AIDS originated from Africa.
I am also sure they resorted to monkeys because of the exposure of their initial plan to test the vaccine on Africans which made Africans to be on guard and at alert.

Nothing matters to these people except developing a vaccine and forcing it on everyone just like we are forced to take yellow fever vaccination before you can travel out with Nigeria passport.

Lead researcher Dr Vincent Munster said: "The rhesus macaque is pretty much the closest thing we have to humans."

This is not correct
Chimpanzees and Bonobos are the most closely related primates to humans.
Not only are they of the same genus (hominids) as us , they’re also of the same tribe (homininae) and sub tribe (hominini)
They were the last of the primates to separate from the homo species .

I’m not saying the learned professor is wrong . She might be referring to something else. Maybe the way the monkeys respond to treatment or something .

Based in BBC news yesterday, the Oxford vaccine will not be ready for human use until around 18months time.

i think u need to be tutored about epidemology, pharmacognosy and human anatomy. During vaccine trials, the animal with the closest anatomical orientation with human most especially mammals such as albino rat, apes and monkey are used as for studies. The outcome of their trials will determine if they could be tried on humans. The next stage is for them to look for volunteers. Once the desired result had been achieved in human/volunteers, then mass production of the vaccines begins.

Monkeys have similar anatomy and physiology to humans.

If you read the article properly, you will see where it was stated that there are over 100 ongoing projects aimed at getting a vaccine and I can bet that not all are in western institutions or organisations. Regarding if Senegal or Madagascar does same, no problem. Everyone desires a vaccine quickly and no one cares about the source provided it has been authenticated to work effectively. However, the issue is when these Senegalese or Madagascans claim to have the treatment/vaccine without organising clinical trials and publications. Those are important steps in developing a vaccine or drug and if unavailable, then the scientific community will not trust your solution. Or would you prefer to be injested a vaccine that wasn't authenticated? No clinical trials conducted? To your last statement, well, it's unsurprising. The west invests more into medical research than any other region largely because she's richer than others but also, they are interested in a vaccine because it affects them and their economies. How come there hasn't been any vaccine for Lassa Fever? Why are Senegalese or even Nigerians not offering a vaccine? Or are you waiting for Bill Gates? Is any western country or institution stopping any Nigerian from developing a vaccine for Lassa Fever? And yes, the west has the right to demand that every traveller gets vaccinated. It's their land and everyone must obey if you must visit there.
