Turner creates a detailed account of the African-American life, their
existence, and the threat brought to its continued existence by the
coronavirus pandemic. This account as exclusively stated in his book
titled Covid-19: The Extinction of the Black Race
described the different conspiracies behind the evolution of the
coronavirus infection vis-à-vis the threat it poses to the existence of
the black race. Relying on the different books, reports, and conspiracy
theories regarding the creation and evolution of the virus, Turner
furthered to describe the Covid-19 pandemic as nothing short of the
beginning of a new world economic, political, and social order. With
this inevitable change in the existing world order also comes the
greatest threat to the continued existence of the black race.
A
history of the black race will be incomplete without proper references
to the African continent. The author however asserts that the creation
of the coronavirus was a calculated effort towards the eradication of
blacks from the surface of the earth. While the actual cause of
coronavirus remains a subject of controversy among different scholars of
medicine with most conspiracy theorists linking it to biological
warfare launched by China against the rest of the world, it remains a
fact that the black race will be at the receiving end of its devastating
effect. Aside African-American communities being home to poverty,
displacement, poor healthcare facilities, poverty and uncontrolled birth
which had led most black persons into seeking greener pastures in
foreign lands, most black citizens in Europe, Asia and America also
engage in menial jobs that can hardly be done remotely and live in
crowded environments and homes. These living standards among several
other factors make it difficult for most blacks to adhere strictly to
the basic social distancing, proper hygiene, quality healthcare
delivery, and proper sanitation requirements; all which is required
towards curtailing the spread of the coronavirus, thereby making the
world blacks the most vulnerable race to the contraction and spread of
coronavirus worldwide. The inadequacy of Covid-19 testing kits in most
black communities, the stressed rural healthcare system, the raging
poverty that makes it difficult to observe a complete stay at home also
accounts for the many unrecorded coronavirus deaths in most black
communities as well as the recorded cases of the blacks in the US as
being the most vulnerable to contraction and Covid-19 related deaths.
The coronavirus had no doubt redefined how most businesses are now
conducted. The use of technology and seamless means of interaction has
surged in recent times thereby making the need for human efforts less
required. Most African-American communities are still faced with
displacement and further economic crisis while the coronavirus continues
to spread among its populations. It is only a matter of time before the
black race becomes overwhelmed and subsequently exterminated by the
coronavirus disease.
