Saying science has failed is extremely ridiculous cause you just making as if it is a Science vs God thing. Y'all in Africa just be scoring religious points with the pandemic. If this same science comes up with a vaccine tomorrow, y"all will start scavenging for it. What is science in this case? The fact that actions are taken based data from from past pandemics is science, the fact that masks were identified and prescribed as a means of reducing the spread is science, the fact that some people survived by receiving medical care is science, the sanitizer we use is science, the machine used to spread this disinfectant is science, people were able to keep working from home cause of science, etc. Science as a body of knowledge is not limited to vaccine production. So which science failed? Besides, science never claimed to be omnipotent, it only strives to push its limits everyday. And even with respect to vaccine production, science is still working in its normal pace. There's nothing special about this pandemic. Like those before it, it's causing havoc now but will either naturally lose its potency or a vaccine will be created to destroy it. That has been the trend. Science does not need to have failed before God can be praised, I believe he works with scientists too.

Why is Africa even sitting like a spectator waiting to accept the vaccine if it's found or score religious points if science can't resolve it? If we can't manufacture, we should stop demoralising those manufacturing with our words.

Among the World Leaders, President John Pombe Magufuli of Tanzania stood out! Despite not being as Righteous as others, president Magufuli decided to practice exactly what the Bible says!

He Proved GOD Almighty in the midst of Nations and leaders pressuring him .

He Personal went on a dry Fast to seek GOD'S intervention for his Country!

He came back and Admonished his people on why they should look up to GOD

He refused to Lockdown the worship center as he said, the solution will come from GOD so why Lockdown his house!

The Citizens were never on a lockdown for even 1 day!

All the Nations around Tanzanian that locked down, no one is as safe as Tanzanian is.

Right now ! The Students are back to school! Everywhere in the nation is calm and safe!

Even those that stood against him have bowed in Respect to GOD and the president!

Why Couldn't Science Save The World Most Scientifically Advanced Nations From Covid-19?

When I observed the extent to which nations, such as, the USA, China, the UK, Japan, Italy...struggled to contain the spread of the deadly virus, I said to some persons that it was only God that could save Africa from the virus, because Africa doesn't have anything, so if the deadly virus could render such world powers so helpless, how much more Africa?

The aforementioned are just about the most scientifically advanced and developed nations on Earth, and the two of them on that list, namely USA and UK were ranked as the top two nations most prepared to handle such a pandemic. However when Covid-19 struck their shores, they seemed the least prepared for it, as they both recorded the most deaths from the virus, with the US toping the dreaded list, and the UK next on the list before Brazil recently leapfrogged them into the second position.

"How are the mighty fallen" is perhaps the most suitable phrase to describe the unfolding events which must have come as a great shock to many, to see how a so-called "common" virus could bring all those world powers, with all their scientific prowess and technological advancements, to their knees, and consequently their nations to a complete standstill.

Some even called it, the "unseen enemy", however the gravity of its resultant devastation, destruction and disruption unleashed upon their respective nations, by far exceeded those of their visible enemies.

Something quite baffling yet, was the relatively low death rates recorded in Africa as a whole from Coronavirus compared to those of the developed world. I saw a stat some days ago that showed that about 6,000 people had lost their lives to the virus in Africa and I was quite astounded. Because Spain alone, with a population of just 47 million had registered over 25,000 deaths, so for Africa with over 1.2 billion just recording 6,000 deaths from the deadly virus despite that the coronavirus has been in Africa for several months now was quite unbelievable.

Although the figures are most likely to be far-less accurate compared to those provided by the developed nations, the situation on ground suggest it's not that far from the truth. For instance, a lot of people in Nigeria do not believe the figures of Covid-19 cases and deaths being published by the government were authentic. They think it's fabricated because the Covid-19 in Nigeria was not having the same kind of effect on Nigerians as the one they're seeing on TV. Some even believe it's a much milder strain of the virus, and a certain politician who contracted the virus and later recovered, even questioned the difference between "corona and malaria".

So it's obviously not having the same devastating impact in the underdeveloped continent compared to her developed counterparts. If it really was, it'd be really hard to conceal, for dead bodies would be clearly seen littering the place, especially in somewhere like Lagos, which has serious overpopulation and overcrowding issues.

So what could have been responsible for this very low death-rate from Covid-19 in Africa compared to those of the developed world?

I believe it's God helping Africa, because if not God, who else?

*It's obviously not science or technology because Africa is the least continent on Earth in that field.

*It's obviously not the "washing of hands" etc. and cleanliness, for Africa cannot possibly be cleaner than those developed nations in that aspect.

*It's obviously not because Africans were healthier than them, because if that were to be the case, Africans wouldn't have both a much lower life expectancy and higher mortality rate compared to those of the most developed nations.

So i believe it's the hand of God, coming to the rescue of the most vulnerable continent in the world, otherwise, considering what Coronavirus was able to do to the "almighty" USA, which is arguably the most scientifically and technologically advanced nation on this planet, also ranked as the most prepared nation for such a pandemic, Africa, which would be the least prepared for such, could hardly have survived it.

Covid-19 seemed to have reduced the most developed nations to the level of the underdeveloped ones according to Mr President, but I believe that's even a huge understatement, because Nigeria and Africa as whole have been able so far to grapple with the spread and impact of the virus better, but not by their scientific power or technological might, but by the hand of God.

It appears the world has seen the worst of coronavirus, as things are gradually returning the norm, as calm is slowly being restored, but even if this event fades into history, the scars it leaves behind would be indelible for ages to come, as the world would never be the same again even after it had long gone.

Covid-19 has surely exposed the truth about the limitations of science, especially for those who put their trust in science, that science and all of its best technology can still fail man.

But not God to those who put their trust in Him, because God can never fail.

Proverbs 3:5-8

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

God bless Nigeria.

Your God saves Africa while allowing the rest of the world to perish What does that make your God A sadist I guess!

The cellphone you used to type this question is a product of science.

Commonsense99:


Op just take a look at the weather condition of those countries, compare it to yours, then answer your question by yourself.. That's if you have any analytical mindset. to give you a tip, viruses survive better at colder environment, even here in Africa, temperate regions like South Africa is leading the scores, Do yourself a favour and do some little research.

You're making me laugh really hard @ the bolded... I should do some research because of the common excuses you're making for science? Com'on! The common man doesn't need to do research to understand that viruses survive better at colder environments. Why do you think people with cold or in a colder environment instinctively put on sweaters or light camp fires etc?

So although people may not be able to control the temperature of a region, they can control that of their immediate environment. Or is that not what enables the astronauts to get to the moon without getting frozen alive? That's a method that's proven very effective to me when it comes to dealing with respiratory infections. So, if that were to be the case with the coronavirus, that should have been a piece of cake for the most scientifically advanced nations, don't you think?

The outbreak of COVID-19 has "brought this nation to its knees," Dr Robert Redfield, director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, admitted on Tuesday.

According to Redfield, who spoke during a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing, America was likely going to spend about $7 trillion "because of one little virus."

"We've all done the best that we can do to tackle this virus," he stated, confessing coronavirus had humbled the entire nation.



Last month, the Director-General of the World Health Organisation (WHO) Dr Tedros Ghebreysus equally echoed TB Joshua’s prophecy, stating that the coronavirus outbreak pandemic is teaching the world humility.

“If this virus is teaching us anything, it’s humility. Time for humility.For all the economic, military and technological might of nations, we have been humbled by this very small microbe,” the former Ethiopian Minister of Health said, whilst addressing the World Health Assembly.

Similarly, USA Chief Justice John Roberts told graduating seniors at his son’s high school last month that the coronavirus has “pierced our illusion of certainty and control” and turned the world upside down.

“Humility. The pandemic should teach us at least that,” Roberts said in a seven-minute video message posted on the website of the Westminster School in Simsbury, Connecticut, where his son, Jack, is a senior.

The most ridiculous thread I've ever seen.

LordReed:
Because science didn't claim to be omnibenevolent, omnipotent and omniscient.

Omar09:


You have said it all. The reason I don't argue with those who call themselves atheist (which I do not like to refer to them as that) is because whether or not they believe in God, it doesn't stop Him from existing, and I do see those who believe in God who argue with them atheists as fools. This is not your fight. This is for God to fight and not you his followers. You are just his children and your job is to serve him and enjoy what comes out of it because He said, if you work in my vine yard, I will work in yours, and not to fight or to prove his existence because it has already been proven by you just breathing.

Stop making it God vs Science. Science is the extension of his presence.

Fucsheetup:
Why won’t you see them as fools?

Is there not a verse in bible, telling you to see them as fools?

Omar09:


I see those Christians arguing with atheists as fools. It's not their battle to prove the existence of God but God's battle to prove it. We are just the proof.

Fucsheetup:
Kudos. I also see those atheists arguing with Christians as fools too. I myself am a very foolish person for even trying to argue with the religious. In the end, everyone should respect the beliefs of their fellow man. One day the truth will come when you die and remain dead.
