And? What does this tell us? How does this fit with any of the purposed narratives?

“The new virus was detected on four foreign nationals who had entered Botswana on the 7th November 2021, on a diplomatic mission,” said Botswana in a statement. The four diplomats tested positive for COVID-19 on November 11 as they were leaving, and genomic sequencing confirmed the variant on November 24."

If the "diplomats'" country wasn't named then you can bet your bottom dollar they were from China.

So they tested positive exiting Botswana? Were they only tested because they were leaving the country? It seems that it many developing countries, most of those tested are trailers (as they pay for testing), so they do little testing in general, they do very little testing of their own citizens.

If Botswana tests people entering the country (and they tested negative), or tested negative leaving their own country - it seems that they may have been infected in Botswana.
