We have educated Africans on bushmeat dangers for years & still it goes on . West Africans believe that Western science is evil magic … So how do you educate that ?

So no nation would actually be sovereign then? If you give the UN that power, you understand where that leads right?
The scariest thing we face in this world is a future where we end up with a single-party world government. Far more risk than we face from "wet markets".
Education is the key. Education leads to better practices and fewer issues with the spreading of disease caused by illiteracy. Instead of proposing the UN have dictatorial powers, how about proposing the world spend more on educating the world?

Aids , Ebola , Marburg and yes Covid appear from unsanitary processing of diseased animals ,handling & eating of these animals.

No, it really isn’t. A common strategy of a losing argument- claim that science supports them (it doesn’t). Empirical truth shows your fears are unfounded and no, one person eating bushmeat will not kill millions. Provide a single example where it’s been documented 1 person eating 1 bushmeat meal caused millions of deaths that can be traced back to the source. (Hint covid isn’t it) You’ve cited nothing to prove your point. And, your fear and paranoia doesn’t give you the right to tell people what they can, and cannot eat.
You are projecting quite a bit of your mental issues into others. Forgetting to take those meds?

Science & empirical truth are on my side in this debate . You are free to reject reality & insert your own , but your reality does not give you a right to kill millions by eating bushmeat out of stupidity.

Lol are you the stupid fool in this scenario? Or the schizophrenic? Your rambling ignorance makes it a bit unclear, although I think I’ve got an idea at this point.
I think we can all safely say that no, there’s zero need for any global food police, and the views that you’ve put forward regarding control, diet, and the threat level any single person (and their testicle soups, portages, & bisques) pose are entirely unfounded and exist only as paranoia. What’s that a symptom of again? Schizofreenia? Come on little buddy, you got this!

Covid -19 is a bat bourne virus & wether it jumped to humans naturally or from gain of function does not matter , because handling bats is dangerous because of diseases . That is why labs world wide study gain of function, because in places like China & Africa they eat & handle bats .

It would take a UN inspection force to police these countries that insist on eating & handling unclean diseased animals . Near impossible task , but we need something created to police these fools ...
...How long can an interconnected world tolerate the ignorance of other people on basic fundamentals of civil life ?
What I find most interesting is your solution is to in effect turn the UN into a true dictatorial body with powers over the entire population of the Earth. Powers to force entire cultures, many of which are thousands of years old, to change because the world's self-described elitists wish it to be so.
I'm curious here, is your real point that you think it's time for a '1984' style government to be put in place with the UN at its helm?
Humans being what we are, I suspect your solution would lead to more war, more chaos, and in the end a breakdown of civilization akin to a postapocalyptic 'B' movie. Billions of people will not just roll over and say "yes master".
What history has taught us is that the solution to problems like this is education and modernization, not some self-inflated wanna-be dictators saying you will change and you will change now or we will...
"We will" - What? What form of punishment do you propose the "UN inspection force" use to force compliance? Where do the roads, supply lines, and modern food production equipment that must precede the other come from? How do you force China, India and the African countries you seem to loath to do as you wish? Would not the UN have to take complete control as a one-world government before complete culture changes would be possible?
Your argument is so schizophrenic in it’s proofs .
If you want to talk about wars , chaos and global recession… look no further than what Covid-19 did & is doing.
Covid-19 is a bat created virus & if the tribal Chinese were not snacking on bats like hotcakes , then there would be no concern for studying gain of function of a bat bourne virus ?
Ghana is having a Marburg outbreak as we speak & bushmeat is to blame .
One stupid fool can ruin an empire.
If the castaways would have drowned Gilligan , they could have escaped that island.
Im a hunter myself, but I don’t eat skunks , bats and armadillos.
Science has warned West Africa & China about these dangers for years .
Ebola has killed near 30000 people & the only reason it’s not millions is , because it has yet to mutate to a slower gestation period . It kills 7 out of 10 people in a very fast manner .
Aids has killed near 40 million people & aids is accepted by most all virologist world wide as coming from eating monkey meat & monkey blood is full of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus ( SIV ) .
I wont argue with you over science, because I am 100% correct in these examples. Bushmeat has killed millions & will kill even more .
Just wait until Marburg or Ebola mutates to a longer gestation period & the world is in serious trouble.
Your opinion is not science nor the truth .
Sorry, but you are dead wrong on this & thousands of experts , virologists & Doctors support these claims.
In regards to taking meds … lol there are not enough drugs on Earth to help in dealing with certain people.
Im sure you agree lol .
Research it yourself. The burden of proof is on you when you take such a stance against 10s of thousands of scientific proofs of my claims … and yes one drop of diseased blood can cause a pandemic of epic proportions.

So not a single citation to support your claims. Roger you’re talking out your ass when claiming a single person could kill millions by eating bushmeat. I’m glad you agree your opinion is not science and you cannot provide support for your claims 1 case of bushmeat eating will kill millions.
There’s no need for a governing body to take on the powers you are describing across nations, your paranoia and fears are unfounded. Rest easy little buddy!

Do you understand how blood borne pathogens work.
Ebola or Aids is not an accumulative effect of eating bushmeat , but rather a gamble . So by all logic , one bushmeat meal has potential to kill countless people.
Play stupid games & win stupid prizes .
If you are a science denier .. there is nothing left for me to argue.
The dark ages were called that for a reason.
I suggest you find some light . Cheers & nothing personal. I enjoy our talks . Have a great weekend & try some rare pork this weekend , because Trichinosis is just made up science & nothing of real concern.

Benin 42.4%

The majority of out-of-school populations are to be found in countries where there is conflict or very weak governance.
Im not advocating for the UN to take control of a sovereign country. Im advocating a UN watchdog just like their Nuclear watchdog group.

If you go back a few decades it's far worse than it is now, so progress is happening. It can be done, however. The real problem is not that people don't want or need an education, it's the governments.
The majority of out-of-school populations are to be found in countries where there is conflict or very weak governance.
The UN can't control that even if we foolishly gave the UN power over sovereign nations, which would be absurd. The UN's way would be to drag all countries down to the lowest level rather than elevate them to the highest level. A dictatorial socialist government is all about bringing everyone down to the same level other than the elite. The world learned that lesson watching the USSR collapse and Cuba which should be a wealthy country, live in poverty.
“After World War II, trust was placed in the United Nations. It is not my intention to offend anybody, I know there are very good people working there, but at this point, the UN has no power to assert,” he said.
