PreetyAngel4U:
Read a nurse's statement on BBC about a 'triage' . She said something like its a situation whereby a patient that doesn't have a great life worth living for is allowed to die due to limited medical resources. Hmm...

I have stories like this where blacks are neglected when they demand to be tested. The same happened to one of the young Nigerian that died of Convid-19 in the US. A black chap I follow on the social media who had Convid-19 was virtually chased off the hospital bed even though he was not 100% fit and the white nurse was even threatening to call security to come get rid of him. I am a Nigerian that live in the US, I am under no illusion. Though I may live in a nice neighborhood, I will get treated same way any black (drug-addict) on the street get treated.

A lot of revelations will come out once the whole Convid-19 problem die down.

If many of you are saying America system is not fair , then I tell you no system is fair in the world.

Well said!!! They dont wanna think out of the box only want to have sex and give birth to children and pollute the society. I know of a girl who had 9 kids with different men she was pregnant for the 10th.

U see most blacks having security jobs cos that's where they can just breath, sit and wait for d day to be over and get a pay check then wait for tax return to file with their kids without a father and the cycle continues. Baby mama raising emotional men.

You know what they say, when you keep wallowing about your past and don't make amendments, you gonna bleed over your future and ruin it cause you refuse to heal..

I see all sort of wack s*itty comments people are dropping on here... About the black being sent back at the hospitala where they are supposed to be tested.. And it cracks me.. I mean what about the black doctors and nurses, they just gonna sit back and watch some white folks send their kind away without being tested and they gonna keep shut about it..

The thing is, Nigerians like to think they know more than they actually do..


What exactly has that Black American community contributed to the society apart from music that preaches hate and promotes crime...

[s]If being an antidote to the brainwashed ipob miscreants is considered tribalistic in your warped mind then so be it.
I'm not anti Igbo, in fact to the contrary, I support common sense Igbos not the delusional retarded and brainwashed ones who sees others as their only problem in life.
I have a great and respected Igbo as an in law and we get along beautifully. I patronize Igbo businesses on daily basis and they are mostly great people. I often wonder why does these online miscreants come from because in my dealings with Igbos in face to face situations, they couldn't be more different from these ipob miscreants all over the internet.
So if you are one of thr brainwashed miscreants, then mend your ways, stop seeing everything from tribal and religious prisms. If you continue to do that , then don't complain when you get the same treatment back in return. You can show hate then expect love in return, it doesn't work like that amigo.[/s]

and you felt the best way you can convince them is by being like them - what a demented old man.

True, and that is why Nigerians in America need to come off their high horse and stop thinking they won't be treated same way their AA brothers are treated or won't face the same problems. Your skin remains black, and it won't save you o.
Even Serena Williams despite her wealth and influence wasnt listened to when she had a lung embolism after having her baby. She had to practically insist on the tests they did before they discovered it. She would have probably died, if she hadn't insisted. They only listened to her because she had money, attitude and influence at the end of the day. Imagine if she was the regular poor or middle class black who doesn't have insurance or cannot afford the multiple tests?

gypsey:
but here in the UK it's killing mostly white people. one wonders what's going on in the US.

But in the US most black people are overweight, suffering from diabetes, heart diseases or drug addicts. hence their multiple deaths atleast that is what the news have claimed.

In the UK unlike the US, there is healthcare for all, so everyone have access to take care of their underlying conditions. Blacks in the US only have access to the emergency room and when that happens, it is rather too late.

Also, because income inequality, blacks tend to eat poor quality food; it make absolute sense to buy a bucket of fried chicken that will feed the whole family, than some pounds of broccoli which is more healthier. Years of accumulation of these decisions leads to underlying health condition and with no access to healthcare, they start nursing these condition until a disaster like this happens.

True and the reason is simple..

Blacks do all sorts of dirty jobs in America

Blacks work as cleaners and bartenders which make them susceptible to the virus

Blacks and other minorities work as toilet cleaners, hospital attendants and security guards who open and close doors for customers and these make them more vulnerable than their white counterparts

Blacks are more ravaged by illnesses such as diabetes, HBP, etc due to the ever increasing inequalities in America, caused by whites. More whites have access to healthcare than blacks...most of whom cannot afford the bill.

Blacks are also so backward because they mostly depend on government for everything. Only those who dare the challenge among them stand tall.

I was in Washington DC a few years ago for an event culminating in my meeting with Barack Obama at the daughters of the american revolution ( DAR) hall. I was the only one invited from Nigeria for that great event which drew more than 1000 people of like-minds from across the globe. The population of black to white in that hall was like 5/95. I looked everywhere, na soso white heads I dey see. I now looked odd amongst them.

Amazingly, all the cleaners, guards, security personnel, luggage carriers, drivers engaged in that event were blacks. I went to a lady to claim my tag who was also black. She didn't know why I was feeling moody. She asked if i was ok and I smiled and said yes, ma'am.

Blacks are seen everywhere doing the low cadre jobs. There's no how they would not touch mall railings, use toilets, carry infected garbage, open the doors to customers enter and leave the mall, etc. I hardly see white Americans doing these. People should check it...only a meagre number of educated Americans and celebrities are infected.

In Spain and italy, whites are mostly affected by the pandemic. The natives do those jobs earlier mentioned there mainly. That's why the reverse is the case in those countries.

Similar experience when I used to attend conferences. Occassionally the only blacks I ran into were Nigerian or someone from other west african countries. Maybe out of a crowd of 500 attendees you may have 3 blacks. And these 3 blacks may be non America or just one of them may be American. Reason why 77% of black doctors in America are Nigerian. My heart breaks in such situations. The fact that this is the only society they can claim make it look like an hopeless situation to be. People like us can carry our luggages and run back to Nigeria if we wish to go start afresh. But thank God, these days few of them are resettling in some African countries.

Why have I not gotten it? Why has p.diddy and all the people he is gonna co-host the revolt news with not gotten it? Mad people, black Americans are bunch of deluded alarmists. Over here an average black American will commit a crime and will expect a judge not to convict and send him to jail when found guilty. Over here they don't go to college, they all wanna be gangsters and they hate on the whites for no just reason. All they do is drugs and hoeing around and yet they wanna compete with the whites. Latinos have more morals now than my African American brothers and sisters. For p.diddy it's all about the money. Corona virus knows no race, the blacks dying from it are probably the chain smokers and drug addicts whose lungs are semi-damaged already.

You clearly lack the full picture. I was in your position once so I understand. I would point you in some directions and you can do further research.

Firstly, have you ever wondered why Nigerians and other Africans who emigrate to the US do so well? They are all blacks you know.

The American blacks have an oppressed mind set and it has cascaded down generations.

Have you heard of the 13th ammendment? That was the ammendment towards the freedom of slaves. Let me quote it here so you understand.

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

Take note of the part in bold. I know there was a crime at the time. I can't remember the name. After the abolishing of slavery, they needed workers on plantations. Think of half of Nigeria being farmlands with blocks picking cottons. All of a sudden, they are free. This farms would collapse. The crime simple arrested you if you were jobless or seen in a group doing nothing. Maybe playing cards. You would be arrested and returned back to the farm. Just imagine that paranoia and fear among blacks. Their self esteem and confidence would be completely eroded.

Let's fast forward. In the 1990s, Bill Clinton in collaboration with lobbyists built prisons all over America worth about $30b. The problem was, they did not have that many prisoners to fill it. They conjured a new law called the 3 strike rule. If you are arrested three times for a misdemeanor, you would get a long prison sentence.

It costs about $50k to manage a single prisoner in America. It's and out sourced service to the connected. No prisoner, no 50k.

I just gave a summary of the problem. Some of the crimes black commit are conjured to fill up the prisons. They have no confidence in themselves and according to the 13th ammendment, slavery was not abolished in totality.

Stop thinking they are lazy, commit crime etc out of choice. The system is built that way.

cococandy:


Nope. You telling me do my research makes me realize you don’t understand the research and reason behind why african American are disproportionately affected by this virus.

Maybe you really need to still take that advice once again.

It's apparent why the virus is killing Blacks in the US, even from this thread alone there's sufficient information to see reasons.

In case you missed it or it's hard for you. In short they're more affected because they're poorer than the whites. Their poverty is a multi-faceted problem. Also subtle racism has a hand in it too.

Summarily declaring it's killing more blacks than whites makes it seem like the virus is racist or it's selecting victims based on their skin colors.
It's just so unfortunate that African Americans find themselves in this situation, too too bad.

Anyone who goes through your profile and posts and knows you record will know all these gibberish you're spewing here is just for the dull ones.

The simple thing you need to know is that; Oga you're too old for the childishness you display on Nairaland.

urchcoded:
get ur facts from the US. Blacks do not have the same healthcare as the whites in the United States, they are denied testing even when they have symptoms of the virus, also footages are shown wia blacks are stigmatized and can't freely wear masks into a grocery store cos Dy feel Dy are criminals. They are hard hit because Dy receive less healthcare. Don't tell me about obesity

I have read various comments on this post and was reluctant to contribute because some people see it as an opportunity to talk down on a fellow Nairalander which is not nice. We may disagree on issues without being insulting.

The story of the blacks in America is one that is quite complex. I acknowledge the sufferings of the African Americans who were slaves long ago and will not in any way diminish what they went through, it was horrifying and no one on earth should ever have to go through that. Be that as it may, the black community has been on a downward trajectory ever since slavery was abolished. In fact, some studies showed that black marriages has reduced by more that 70% while incarceration has increased by similar percentage between 1960s and now. The problem of the black man is not the white man, it is the black man and their leaders. We can discuss these another time.

Back to the issue of health, Covid-19 does not discriminate; the Surgeon General said that much today. The health crisis of black America is not new, but using Covid-19 to politicise it is a low low on the part of politicians and leaders, including Sean Combs. The health crisis in the African American community was a disaster waiting to happen. A study conducted in 2013 found that African Americans in the southern states of the US live averagely less than other parts of the US after their 65th birthday. The study found that it was not due to geographic location but the major factor is health choices made by these people. https://www.thedailybeast.com/study-proves-southern-states-have-lowest-life-expectancy.

The premise that African Americans don't have as good healthcare as the white does not hold at all. No amount of health insurance or cover will make up for poor health choices. These choices are what has made them susceptible to the virus and therefore the death rate. It is not a case of race, it is a matter of poor choices. It would have been better if Sean Combs had addressed the matter and educate their people earlier on with their music rather than lament now.

The black leaders of the African American communities have sold us all out. Blacks have been voting Democrats since like forever but the story is always the same. Obama came and said YES WE CAN, but in the end it was NO WE DIDN'T. H1N1 (Swine Flu) killed way more blacks during Obama's era, that data is there with CDC but no one cried fowl. The establishment is scared because blacks are finally leaving the plantation hence they are crying wolf. Future always proves the past.

Exactly. Each time I see black suffering and living under the bridge in america(the homeless), I'd be asking myself, but why is this so? Even the so called black africans seem more educated and enlightened than them. People can truly live in the midst of plenty and still be hungry. I met a guy in west century(Inglewood area)in California one time, he was working in a laundry shop. Beside the shop was a chinese restaurant. This guy was able-bodied. He was seen begging for money...begging everyone, (including me) entering the restaurant for money.

Great point. Is it not like the same situation like south Africans that many of our good for nothing "brothers" that emigrated there started calling them lazy. To be oppressed for generations is no joke. It messed the mind up and your expectations out of life will be lower. I used to work in one of top energy companies in the US in very technical R& position. When my immediate white colleagues realized that I was a tough nut to crack because I simply did not give a "fvck" about them as someone from Africa, they started doing politics. When it got to them and knowing I was very good at my job and I couldn't be fired without solid reason, they started saying I needed to start speaking like an American. Imagine, I left their job for them. So, it's easy for some who are ready to kiss asses to come here to spew trash. Because that's what they know how to do best, to spew trash. They can't make a living without the whiteman.

how does the UK healthcare for all system works?

Because here in Nigeria we have nothing absolutely nothing.

Who pays for that in the UK? is it entirely free?

Because healthcare is expensive, really expensive.

There is universal healthcare for all in UK, just as in Canada that is funded by the government. But in the US healthcare is privately funded. Only kids below 18 and elderly is guaranteed healthcare by government. America practice extreme capitalism.

Wow this is insightful.
About the bold part, we can conclude that everyone in prison due to crimes committed is a slave right?

Also worsening it is the 3 strike rule, on paper it doesn't look racist but definitely has racist undertones. But it's a a very stupid rule to enact, especially for misdemeanors.

They have not contributed Jack, I was telling someone that american would have gone far ahead if the blacks contributed just 10% of their brain.

the Universal healthcare for all, does it cover every form of ailments and diseases? like whatever sickness you're suffering.

Personally I do not see much wrong with capitalism when you compare with the alternatives, I think something has to be done to lift blacks from poverty in the US and not these tiny handouts they keep handing them and stupid laws that make it seem like they're helping them whereas they're being given enough just to remain in poverty
