After Predicting Many Deaths In Africa, UN Hails Africa’s Response To COVID-19 by Neictraema(f): 12:12am On May 24, 2020
United Nations Secretary-General, António Guterres, has described Africa’s response to the Coronavirus outbreak as remarkable.

Guterres in a statement said most African countries have moved rapidly to deepen regional coordination, deploy health workers and enforce quarantines, lockdowns and border closures as measures to tackle the virus.

The statement said, “The African continent’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic has provided valuable lessons for the rest of the world in meeting this challenge. Most African countries have moved rapidly to deepen regional coordination, deploy health workers and enforce quarantines, lockdowns and border closures. Governments and health authorities are also drawing on the experience of HIV/AIDS and Ebola to debunk rumours and overcome mistrust of officials, security forces and health workers.
“Nonetheless, continued vigilance and preparedness are critical as the virus remains a threat to life, livelihoods and health across the continent.

“Many countries across the continent have enjoyed strong economic growth in recent years. Standards of living have risen; the digital revolution has taken hold; and the African Continental Free Trade Area is moving from vision to reality.

“This is now at risk, as COVID-19 aggravates long-standing inequalities and deepens hunger, malnutrition and vulnerability to disease. Millions could be pushed into extreme poverty. Tourism, remittances and demand for Africa’s commodities are already declining, and the opening of the trade zone has been delayed.

“The United Nations, and I personally, stand in total solidarity with the people and governments of Africa, and with the African Union, in tackling COVID-19. UN agencies, country teams, peacekeeping operations and humanitarian workers are providing training, expertise and other support. United Nations solidarity flights have delivered millions of test kits, respirators and other supplies.

“The policy brief just issued by the United Nations calls for urgent international action to strengthen Africa’s health systems, maintain food supplies, support education, protect jobs, keep households and businesses afloat, and cushion the continent against lost income and export earnings,” he said.

The UN Chief said since the start of the pandemic, he has called for a global response package amounting to at least 10 per cent of the world’s Gross Domestic Product.

“For Africa, that means more than $200 billion as additional support from the international community. I also continue to advocate a comprehensive debt framework -- starting with an across-the-board debt standstill for countries unable to service their debt, followed by targeted debt relief and a comprehensive approach to structural issues in the international debt architecture to prevent defaults.

“It will also be essential for African countries to sustain their efforts to silence the guns and address violent extremism – and I welcome African support for my call for a global ceasefire. Political processes and elections in the coming months offer potential milestones for stability and peace.

“And African countries, like all countries, must have quick, equal and affordable access to any eventual vaccine and treatment for COVID-19. These must be considered global public goods.

“Women will be central to every aspect of the response. Stimulus packages must prioritize putting cash in the hands of women, increasing social protection and targeting them for grants and loans. Creating jobs, training and educational opportunities for Africa’s young people must be another central goal.

“Many difficult decisions will need to be taken as the pandemic unfolds; it will be essential for governments and health authorities to build and retain the trust and participation of their citizens. The response to this pandemic must be based on respect for human rights, the rule of law and the dignity and equality of all.

“These are still early days for the pandemic in Africa, and disruption could escalate quickly and spread uncontrollably. Global solidarity with Africa is an imperative – now, and for recovering better.”

UN (& WHO) is owned and controlled by white racist globalists. When they plan evil, they first predict it , and then secretly make it happen. They first deceived the world into believing a hoax that a deadly virus is ravaging the world, when theres actually no virus. They used their total control of 99% of world media to do this by running scripted fake news on deaths and sufferers in their countries. Their evil plan is to exterminate the black population worldwide via systematic and targeted poisoning majorly using testing and vaccinations processes to do this. When we start dying enmass they will blame the hoax non existent virus. Stay alert.

Covid-19 is turning out to be a failed experiment.

They thought they could manufacture a deadly virus that would sweep out entire nations and then present thier toxic "vaccine" as the only solution to the so called ravenous infection.

However, it turns out the natural immune system could beat this virus effortlessly and the very few who died already had complications from other illnesses.

In a desperate bid to cover their tracks, they began the technique of censoring recovery rates whilst reporting 'deaths' on a daily basis (most of which are wrongfully attributed to Covid-19) in other to create the illusion that this virus is so 'contagious and deadly'.

Increasingly, people are waking up to this global fraud and the charade cannot continue any longer - hence why they are now backtracking lipsrsealed
