The idea that the disease has been used to sterilize and reduce the population of Africa is called the

a

"Western Plot"

b

"European Plot"

c

"Northern"

d

"Eastern Plot"

The correct response is Option A: Western Plot.

Explanation:

The Western Plot is the idea that the vaccination schemes and schedules that are promoting by Western powers and the system of Western medicine are part of a plan to sterilize the population of world regions like Africa. For example, the activities of groups like Boko Haram have lead to the spread of diseases like polio again in regions of Nigeria because they believe that immunization is a "Western plot to sterilize Muslims." They have cut off areas of Nigeria to such interventions and thus have contributed to the resurgence of diseases that have effective vaccinations like measles where there was a recent outbreak in 2019.
