This past week in northern Nigeria, ten polio vaccinators going house to house administering free polio drops in the worlds last polio hotbed, were gunned down because of lies perpetrated and perpetuated by fear mongering religious tactics of religious clerics perpetuating lies, that deceive people.
Muslim clerics in this region have been long teaching that the polio vaccination drops contain AIDS, and sterilizes baby Muslim girls, to reduce African, and more specifically, African Muslim population growth.
The day after first health worker killings, three Korean doctors were also brutally murdered in the region.
"KANO, 15 February 2013 (IRIN) - Unknown gunmen on mopeds shot dead 10 polio vaccinators last week in separate attacks on two polio clinics in the northern Nigerian city of Kano, capital of a polio-endemic region where concerted global efforts are being made to stamp out the virus by the end of 2013. .....
In the past, clerics have claimed polio vaccines contained the AIDS virus, ........ Kano State government suspended polio immunization between August 2003 and September 2004 due to allegations by Muslim clerics that the vaccine could render girls infertile as part of a US-led plot to depopulate Africa."
