Clearly not. S America and Asia share latitude with Africa yet have much higher Covid rates. Therefore any study claiming Covid rates are based on latitude is contradicted by real life facts. Is that not clear to all?
And you are basing that on which studies, that incorporate confounding factors ?

Based on data. Are you unaware that African Covid rates are far less than those in other continents that share the same latitude? Of maybe you deny this is the case? You are a confounding factor

So lack of access to health care = low Covid deaths.
Want to flesh that one out?
Read the quote, the answer is there.

And what is that answer?

If lack of access to healthcare means lower death rates, then I guess we ought to get rid of all doctors

There's a difference between death rates and recorded death rates.

So you know the "real" numbers, not the recorded ones?

re: fisky

"genetics" is the LAST thing anyone wants to hear, even if it's true. So no matter how solid the research may come out that 100% is due to genetics, it will be 100% ignored.

genetics doesn't allow for some politicians to promise to cure this, or take control of it- so that would never see the light of day.

Can you believe it? The anti-science crowd was wrong about another aspect of Covid. Just a few days ago they were a high-fives over Africa’s not suffering from Covid.

Of course the usual dips will say that the WTO or WHO unleashed omicron in Africa to make them look bad.

But this is just another reminder that they’ve been wrong about nearly every aspect of this pandemic

re: vaxxed&waxxed

Oh, so covid hopped on a plane and headed to Africa?

Too much talking.

As for the person who said Australia is the least densely populated continent.

Yeah it probably is.

But 95% + of the population lives in about 6 locales.

All that desert in the middle.? No covid of course. No water either.

Africans aren't arrogant and follow advice

of authorities on preventive measures.

Africans don't feel wearing masks and social

distancing infringe on their rights and limit

their white skin privilege.
