You're just S***!': Samuel Eto'o and Didier Drogba lead crusade against 'racist' professors' plan to test coronavirus vaccine in Africa as Chelsea legend accuses them of treating people 'like guinea pigs'


Samuel Eto'o and Didier Drogba have criticised two medical professors who claimed that testing for a vaccine against coronavirus should be carried out in Africa.

The comments were made on French television about the potential BCG vaccine, which is usually used against tuberculosisProfessor Jean-Paul Mira, head of the intensive care unit at the Cochin Hospital in Paris, said: 'If I can be provocative, shouldn't we do this study in Africa where there are no masks, no treatment, no resuscitation?' The same as for some AIDS studies where prostitutes try things because we know they're unprotected'.

Professor Camille Locht, research director at Inserm, replied: 'You are right. We are currently thinking in parallel about a study in Africa to make this same type of approach with the BCG.

'There is a tender process that has gone out or is going to go out. We will seriously think about that.

'That doesn't prevent us from thinking in parallel about a study in Europe and Australia.'Former Barcelona and Cameroon striker Eto'o hit out at the comments.

He wrote on Instagram: 'You are just SH*T. Africa isn't yours to play with.'

Ex-Chelsea and Ivory Coast forward Drogba accused the doctors of treating people like guinea pigs and labelled the remarks as 'racist'.

He wrote on Twitter: 'It is inconceivable that we continue to accept this. I strongly denounce these serious, racist and contemptuous remarks!

'Help us save lives in Africa and stop the spread of this virus which is destabilising the whole world, instead of considering us as guinea pigs. It is absurd!

'African leaders have a responsibility to protect people from these heinous plotsAnother former Chelsea striker, Demba Ba, who played for Senegal, also criticised the comments.

He wrote on Twitter: 'Welcome to the West, where white people believe themselves to be so superior that racism and stupidity become commonplace. TIME TO RISE.'

Eto'o commented on Ba's post, saying: 'Sons of bitches'.
BCG is one of various vaccines being considered for potential use against coronavirus.

they are french,read very well

We can cry to high heavens, the professor's should just place an advert for volunteers from African and offer to pay some amount at the end of the test.
We are poor, and I think that's one of our greatest challenge as Africans presently.

And our so called leaders are quiet.who we offend abeg

They are just SH*T. we've not yet recover from the one Mr Trump prescribed
