Tanzania’s president expresses doubts about COVID vaccines​

“If the white man was able to come up with vaccinations, then vaccinations for AIDS would have been brought, tuberculosis would be a thing of the past, vaccines for malaria and cancer would have been found,” President John Magufuli said during an event in his hometown.

He also warned against Tanzanians being used as “guinea pigs” for the vaccines. Magufuli, who offered no evidence to support his doubts, has been widely criticized for declaring the coronavirus defeated in Tanzania. The country hasn’t updated its number of confirmed infections since the middle of last year: 509.

But now other authorities in the country, including the Catholic church, appear to be pushing back as parts of the African continent see a strong second surge in virus infections.

Magufuli also suggested that donated vaccines are part of a conspiracy to steal Africa’s wealth: “Don’t think you are loved so much. Tanzania is rich. Africa is rich. Everyone wants a piece of it.”

The president in the past has told Tanzanians not to implement social distancing while encouraging them to use untested herbal remedies to treat the disease. He also questioned the credibility of donated virus tests.

Some people who opposed the government’s stance that Tanzania was coronavirus-free were arrested and charged.
Magufuli won a second five-year term in office in an October election which opposition leaders blasted as a “butchering of democracy.”

Mbona faida yake hatuion huku mtaani

Afadhali uwe salama na usione faida mtaani, kuliko uone faida mitaani ukiwa mashakani. Wazungu wanataka kutumaliza na machanjo yao. Hawa watu ni hatari sana.

Hebu itafakari post # 185 ya Gama ndio utajua mtazamo wa wazangu juu ya Afrika.

Magufuri ni Comred anayeogopwa na mabeberu, anawafanya wanasayansi wajitume kutafuta chanjo za magonjwa mengine yaliyoua mamilioni ya watu.

Alichonacho cha kuogopa ni kipi? Wanamuogopa Kim ana nyuklia. Huyu wakuongea leo mabeberu kesho wadau aogopwe?

 

[double R]

DETRIMENTAL? Devastating? Disastrous? Careless? Bullying? Narcissistic? Sadistic? Which word exactly fits the description of the character and statements of Tanzania’s President John Magufuli in his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic?
No one really knows what has befallen President Magufuli, a PhD holder in Chemistry and a former science teacher, who does not seem to believe in science any more when it comes to protecting his people against the adverse effects of the Coronavirus infections

With a bunch of professors circulating his table daily.

A SCOURGE DEFEATED

Tanzania: Magufuli not keen on Covid shots, but without vaccines many would be dying of smallpox

Tanzania’s President John Magufuli does not, it seems, trust vaccinations.

Magufuli has told the health ministry not to rush to adopt Covid-19 vaccines, saying they may not be safe or effective. He says the country is free of Covid-19, and his government does not track infections or deaths.

There is no scientific reason why Tanzania would be able to avoid what all of its neighbours are going through, and Magufuli has been a Covid-19 sceptic since the early days out the outbreak.

“If the white man was able to come up with vaccinations, then vaccinations for AIDS would have been brought, tuberculosis would be a thing of the past, vaccines for malaria and cancer would have been found,” Magufuli said in a speech on 26 January.

The existence of an illness does not in itself create a vaccine, or mean that it is easy to make one. We are fortunate in that Covid-19 does not seem to present any particular difficulties in vaccine development: the global emergency means that vaccines have been developed in record time.

The example of smallpox

Less fortunate were millions of Africans who until the late 1960s were infected with smallpox without access to a vaccine.

Tanzania in the 1950s and early 1960s had about 1,000 cases of smallpox each year, climbing to 3,000 in 1966. The country suffered from a particularly severe strain of smallpox which had fatality rates of between 5% and 7%.

Then as now, political will was essential to fight the disease. The World Health Organisation (WHO) purposely refrained from proposing mass smallpox vaccine campaigns in East Africa.
Tanzania requested the programme itself and, according to the WHO, was the only East African country to view smallpox as a serious problem. In 1965 and 1966, six million vaccinations were carried out in Tanzania.

The plan in action

In 1968, Tanzania’s government and the WHO undertook to eliminate smallpox from the country within three years.

The plan was for the attack phase of systematic mass vaccination, where areas with more than five cases per 100,000 people were to be prioritised.

This was followed by the consolidation phase for areas with less than five cases per 100,000 people.

The maintenance phase was rolled out once the disease had been eliminated. The efficacy of the system rested on prompt and accurate reporting of all cases.

The WHO provided Tanzania and other African governments with vaccines, advisers and logistical support. In Tanzania, Rwanda and Kenya, it was possible to administer the smallpox vaccine in conjunction with anti-tuberculosis vaccines.

Slower smallpox transmission

Of course, not all the vaccinations that were given worked. Some doses were not strong enough and refrigeration was a problem, as it is today. The campaign kept going despite the obstacles. The result was that transmission of the disease had largely ended in East Africa by 1970.

The same approach was being carried out across Africa. In September 1968, surveillance of smallpox transmission was started in all areas of West Africa with known or suspected cases of smallpox. By May 1970, all 20 West African countries targeted were free of smallpox.

The world’s last known case of smallpox was reported in Somalia in November 1977. In 1979, the world officially became free of smallpox, estimated to have killed 300 million people in the twentieth century alone.
Medical authorities fighting smallpox had an advantage compared with today in that the disease spread with relative slowness. It was possible to identify the areas that were most at risk of infection and get there to give vaccinations even if it took days to get there.

Covid-19 is much more contagious, and we live in a world which is much more interconnected and urbanised than in the 1960s. The urgency for vaccination, therefore, is much greater.

Bottom line

Playing politics with Covid-19 will cost lives.

Tukatae vitu vyao Kama madawa, mavifaa yao Kama CT scan, na MRI tuwekeze kwenye mitishamba

Kuna daktari mmoja bingwa anasema Tanzania inaweza kutengeneza strai yake mpya.

Kama serikali na uongozi wa juu wa nchi, hatutaki kupima, hatutaki ku isolate, hatutaki dawa za kimataifa, hatutaki chanjo.

Daktari bingwa wa wapi?

Kama itadhihirika wazi kuwa vina madhara kiafya, tutavikataa tu!

 

[badison]

Kwa kweli. Me mwenyewe napata wasiwasi kwa hizi hotuba za hadhara za kuwa clash hao jamaa kwenye madawa yao na vifaa mbalimblai vya misaadkweru kuwa wanalengo la kutumaliza, ni bora baadhi ya maneno makali wangekuwa wanaongelea ofisini wakiwa viongozi wakubwa tu pasipo media. Waweke mikakati mf. Waziri wa afya n.k kutokuchukua hizo chanjo n.k. Kuliko kuongea na kuponda kila kitokacho kwa mzungu. Hao watu wanaweza kureact pia negative na wakaja kutupandikizia majanga makubwa sn kuonesha uwezo wao kuwa wakiamua kitu wanaweza. Kweli kuna haja ya kuchagua maneno na kupunguza ukali. Maana kwa hali ilivyo sasa kila tunachokiongea hata kwa lugha zetu wao wanaweza kukifahamu pia.

Binafsi nataka kiongozi anaejiamini kama Raisi Magufuli na pia ukitambua mamlaka yako kama Raisi huwezi kuwa muoga muoga acha uoga mkuu hii karne ya 21 hayo mawaza ni hofu ya hali ya juu

Ukweli ni kuwa tulifanikiwa kudhibiti, hata sasa sasa tukirudi kwenye mbinu tulizotumia kwa dhati, tunaweza kufanikiwa
