Denver Ncube an Anatomist and a PhD Neuroscience candidate at the University of Oregon Institute of Neuroscience has said that individuals resident in Zimbabwe are more exposed to the novel coronavirus due to increased environmental exposures in the country. We post Ncube’s full Twitter thread below.

Environmental exposures that can exacerbate COVID-19 effects include pollution. With the frequent power outages and people resorting to using firewood and generators daily are our people safe? Has anyone cared to check on general lung health? Can our people afford to get checked?

The failure of Gvt to guarantee the most basic things for citizens puts many in mortal danger. This is the cost of power retention as a sole objective without leadership. Gangsters whose only mission is to brandish power without concern or sense of stewardship towards citizens.

We are truly alone, leaderless, abandoned by those who daily squeeze the life out of us. There is no proposition that makes such a callous, perfidious, insensitive, psychopathic and cruel bunch of individuals fit for purpose. We can’t change their hearts, they have to go.
