Outrage As Two French Doctors Say Coronavirus Treatment Should First Be Tested In Africa

Furious social media users have slammed two French doctors Jean Paul Mira and Camille Locht for stating that treatment for novel coronavirus should first be tested in Africa.

“If I can be provocative, shouldn’t we be doing this study in Africa, where there are no masks, no treatments, no resuscitation?” Dr Mira said on TV channel LCI.

“A bit like as it is done elsewhere for some studies on Aids. In prostitutes, we try things because we know that they are highly exposed and that they do not protect themselves.”

“You are right,” Dr Locht responded.

“We are in the process of thinking about a study in parallel in Africa.”
