If you want something more comparable, how about this: as far as we can tell, pretty much the entirety of Africa completely failed to manage Covid-19. Infection rates there as measured by antibody testing were massive, the population was more than than enough to produce mutations, and it has already resulted in a mutation that's been confirmed to evade at least one crucial vaccine. Yet we haven't seen this kind of narrative about Africa.

- nec4b 6y agoYou consider this an equivalent to bashing of Brazil in MSM for months now?
- icebraining 6y agoHas that been happening? I don't follow US-based media.
- nec4b 6y agoYes and not only in the USA but also at least in some European countries.
- icebraining 6y agoIf you say so. Here Brazil has always been of particular interest due to our close historical relationship, so nothing has changed (e.g. "Lava Jato" was also covered much more closely than corruption cases in other countries, left or right-wing).
