A Gambian living in Germany has said an old German woman confided in his cousin doctors in Germany are planning to test their Coronavirus vaccine on African migrants, as fear over the deadly infections grows.
Coronavirus continues to tear through the world putting almost every country including The Gambia on the edge. The infection has claimed the lives of thousands since it first emerged in China in December last year.
A Gambian living in Germany has now told The Fatu Network a German woman told his cousin doctors there are planning to proceed with a test of their vaccine against the virus.
He said: “One old woman told my cousin that the doctors of Germany want to test their vaccine on African migrants.
“According to the woman, they (doctors) said our skin is very strong and they think it cannot affect black people.
“People (African migrants) should be very careful and should not do any vaccine when called by a doctor or receive a letter for medical check…”
The Fatu Network could not immediately get a German government official to comment on the issue.
