According to (less than reliable) official stats, the Tanzanian economy grew almost 7% in 2019. It looks as if Magafuli did not want to crimp that growth - and so accepted higher COVID cases to avoid shut down. https://t.co/KHdMwh4Zcr — PolitiTweet.org

Tanzania leadership refuses to count COVID cases, derides masking, rejects vaccine. President Magufuli presents this as "anti-imperialism." But it sure looks like he's really deciding that a country with warm climate and median age 18 can "take the punch." https://t.co/14wIEvZry7 — PolitiTweet.org

Tanzanian growth slowed in 2020, but the economy continued to expand, unlike others in Africa that took COVID more seriously. Since Tanzania refuses to count cases, world cannot know the human cost of Magafuli's decisions. END — PolitiTweet.org
