DanseMacabre:Did they wake up and become members of the government? They were doctors first. This behaviour of lack of commitment to improving health services they exhibit started somewhere. A doctor who is not committed to his job and doesnt understand how important his job is will not fare any better if you make him a CMD or a minister for health. When from the beginning he joined the profession to become a millionaire now he is a minister what do you think he will do? Suddenly realise the importance of human lives? 2 Likes |

Jaqenhghar: Now we're broadening the scope too far. We're speaking of doctors refusing to attend to a patient exhibiting classic COVID 19 symptoms because they don't have PPE, supposed to be provided by the government. Mind you UNTH is a government-owned hospital. If we're broadening the scope then we should do it to include the doctors who have been infected because they treated patients (some of whom lied about their medical history) with the virus. 1 Like 1 Share |

Exactly my thoughts. The husband could have left those useless people immediately and rush her to any good private medical facility for urgent medical attention. She wispered to your ears not to allow her to die, you still kept arguing with those guys that no more see people's death as anything. My heart bleeds. avrex3k: 4 Likes |

Lack of PPE akin to sending soldiers to fight Boko Haram with sticks and stones. Some will br heroes and die trying. Others will walk away. The NMA I think sent out a circular warning doctors of the dire consequences of trashing their oaths and absconding from the frontlines but say nothing about the health and safety of their members. Quite contrary to their counterparts in Britain and America thay spare no effort in reminding their goverments of their obligations towards not just part but the entire health sector. Nigeria I repeat remains a very peculiar country in many things, now reflected in the covid pandemic. We are the only country I know that has completely segregated its health sector into pandemic and non pandemic parts. Pandemic led by the NCDC is getting billions in funds for kit, infrastructure, logistics and welfare. Non pandemic is getting absolutely nothing even at tertiary healthcare levels. I toured one today. It is just sad. I mean NOTHING by way of resources. To those doctors I saw it was like Covid was happening in another country while we all know it has breached NCDC containment and reached community levels where everyday individuals seeking normal healthcare services are infecting healthcare staff and sentencing them to death simply because they are often asymptomatic and attended to by folks who are not kitted to. I will not even speak about private hospitals some of which have unfortunately closed shop or been forced to at this time when ALL hands should be on deck. This is what all the various health unions should be doing, talking to goverment to find a solution to the critical lack of protective gear and not threatening their members. 1 Like 1 Share |

DanseMacabre:While calling on Enugu state governor, Chief Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi and the National Center for Disease Control (NCDC), to urgently intervened on the matter, Mr. Alagbu, asked If indeed the case was a COVID-19 case, “how come there were no efforts put in place for sample collection even after death, what measures did the hospital put in place to safeguard the mortuary staff?, Why did it take the hospital hours to wear their PPE and attend to the patient? What is the hope of ordinary men in our Nigeria hospital today? How come the whole fear of COVID-19 disappeared as soon as the patient died? I am heart-wrecked because my wife died leaving behind four children, the eldest is 11 year old. Be honest and straightforward in your thoght 2 Likes |

DanseMacabre:Someone mentioned here that it was after she died they brought out PPE. Bros this neglect did not start with COVID19. This is their attitude even with your money you are treated like shít. I used to try and reason like you till I witnessed their bullshit 1st hand. I dont pray you go through what some of us have had to go through. My experience is part of what made me relocate from that country. No way my wife or kids will go through that shít. 5 Likes |

This is evidence of the failed concoction we call a country. I am not interested in politics so no one accuse me of just being critical of one party. I honestly don't know what else we can do to make the simplest basic things right in this country. It's no use. The government is non-existent, all they do is make stupid laws they don't intend to see the light of day or care to nurture to implementation, and share money. And they think that's governance. The people have no proper discipline and commitment. We all just want to survive by whatever means. It's a disaster. My prayer is that we don't become victims of this travesty. May God help this family and may her soul rest in peace. |

The symptoms were too 'covid 19' to be treated with kid gloves. What would the man say of the woman with Covid 19 that travelled to ekiti to Lagos with a pregnancy only to infect medical workers. So the man was expecting the Drs to risk their lives? If the consultant that called was so sure and not trying to do eye service,he should have told the husband to bring his wife to his clinic or accompanied them to unth and identify himself. This man has no case any of the Drs. His wife is an unfortunate victim of circumstances beyond the Drs control. He also didn't blame the ESUTH hospital that cunningly told him they don't av wheel chair or bedspace, but those of unth just because she died there. 1 Like |

People should try as much as possible to stay away from hospital in this time of corona,.it's not just in Nigeria this is happening The whole world hospitals are concentrating on this bloody corona at this moment, that's why people are told to stay safe, avoid unnercerssary accidents and trip to hospitals. |
