Equatoguineans are quite suspicious of the Chinese: I heard an anecdote--many months before the event in Wuhan--that there were reports of Chinese restaurants in Cameroon that had freezers full of babies in them; this person does not go to Chinese restaurants now. Again, this is just a rumor but this might speak to some cultural insensitivities? - Jul 2020
