Magufuli: "If the White man was able to come up with vaccinations, he'd have found a TB vaccine by now." #Tanzania has a policy of universal BCG vaccination (against TB) & WHO/UNICEF estimates >90% of all newborns in

Magufuli: "Vaccinations are dangerous" ( https://www.thecitizen.co.tz/tanzania/news/video-tanzania-s-magufuli-warns-against-foreign-covid-19-vaccinations--3270440). #Tanzania, as a matter of govt policy, provides almost everyone with a whole range of vaccines, including against tetanus, diphtheria, polio, measles & rotavirus. Many Tanzanians wouldn't be alive otherwise.
Magufuli: "In a certain country, its girls were vaccinated against cervical cancer, but it later emerged that the vaccination was meant to make them infertile." False! There's no association between HPV vaccination & infertility: https://www.who.int/publications/m/item/human-papilloma-virus-vaccines-and-infertility; https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7255493/
Magufuli: "Tanzanians have gone abroad to receive coronavirus vaccinations, which introduced a 'dangerous virus' into their bodies." None of the early #COVID19 vaccines (Moderna, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, JNJ) contain live virus. A COVID-19 vaccine cannot make you sick with COVID-19.
Magufuli: "We have lived for over one year without the virus because our God is able & Satan will always fail." Evidence suggests that #Tanzania is currently experiencing a new, more deadly #COVID19 wave. The govt not publishing numbers doesn't mean the virus doesn't exist.
Magufuli is spreading misinformation & wild conspiracy theories that put Tanzanian lives at risk. It's irresponsible of @TheCitizenTZ to publish this without fact-checking the "President": https://www.thecitizen.co.tz/tanzania/news/video-tanzania-s-magufuli-warns-against-foreign-covid-19-vaccinations--3270440 Leaders must be held accountable.
