Back in March, there were calls from some leaders in the global north to cancel Africa's debt, to help them during Covid. But instead, the global north helped screw Africa even more, with lockdowns disrupting the extremely delicate and unequal global economy, which has massively fueled poverty and hunger in these countries that remain virtually enslaved to the north.
And what are we doing now? Are we going ahead with debt cancellations, given that things are even more awful for them now than they were in March? It doesn't look like it.
Instead we're going to encourage them all to get vaccinated with experimental vaccines that lack long term trials, and that the vast majority of people - particularly in much of Africa, where Covid has had little impact - do not need!!!
Isn't this all extremely disturbing?
