Discussion Thread Comments About Covid-19 From YouTube Vlogs About African Americans Visiting South Africa (December 2021)

Edited by Azizi Powell

This pancocojams post provides a compilation of some comments about Covid-19 that I happened upon while reading the discussion threads for several YouTube vlogs about African Americans visiting South Africa in December 2021.

This post also includes a video of African American vlogger Mansa Mayne enjoying himself at a Johannesburg area nightclub name "Tanzania". Many of the comments that mention Covid-19 are from that vlog.

Four of these comments were previously added to the discussion thread for https://pancocojams.blogspot.com/2021/12/african-american-youtube-vlogger-mansa_16.html (African American YouTube Vlogger) Mansa Mayne Tours Lion & Safari Park In Johannesburg, South Africa (Dec. 16, 2021). I deleted those comments from that discussion thread and added them to this compilation.
