That does look interesting. Doesn't surprise me though. Universities in the USA are hotbeds of communist ideology. Seems natural for them to team up with our Chicom friends.

They have confirmed cases where the patient does not show symptoms...Asymptomatic.
Really dangerous. Spreading the stuff, with maybe a scratchy throat.

That is a scary video if you buy into that stuff. I prefer not to myself.

I've been watching the Ebola outbreak in Africa since 2018, specifically the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) where it borders Uganda. The WHO has said the same thing there about not limiting international travel or trade. Uganda imposed restrictions anyway and has been mostly free of the ravages of the disease. When a case does show up, they are quick to contain it and all the associated people. It turns out that in those cases the person crossed the border in a place the government didn't know about. (As in illegal alien status). In that disease outbreak, WHO was slow to do anything and claimed that it needed more money. Several nations ignored WHO and provided the help they could which did far more to control Ebola than anything WHO did. I don't know if there is any corruption, but it does seem that the organization is not doing what it was originally chartered to do.
And as for China buying into Ethopia, yes, they're doing it and setting themselves up for a permanent presence in Africa. Even Namibia on the opposite side of Africa from Ethopia is trying to contend with the Chinese and has sent several high ranking officials home. Keep in mind that Africa has a lot of natural resources and China is poised to be the primary controller of these resources.

China with its long recorded history thinks in terms of long term strategies. There's no doubt they are re-colonizing Africa to their own advantage duplicating what Europeans did ~300 years ago.
Namibia? That is really the back end of nowhere. I think diamonds are the only resource presently developed. Other efforts were tried and then shut down, due cost of operation in a place so remote that it wasn't profitable. Scarce water, scarce educated labor, a small government running the place like a family secret for their own benefit alone, mostly empty desert. I thought the more resource-rich African nations would see Chinese involvement long before Namibia.
Off-topic - after my daughter's semester-abroad in South Africa she and 3 other women did a road trip including the neighboring countries before flying home. When they reached Namibia's northern border, Angolan border guards frantically waved them away. They didn't realize the border was planted with land mines. Things are just different in remote areas of Africa.
