2. The cost of testing a patient ranges between N40,000 and N50,000. It is free for patients and Government bears the cost. Efforts are on to get the cost subsidised through Insurance or donations by aid partners. How? |

The best for the world at large is to make a very cheap test kit that everyone can buy in pharmacy and do the test on their own. Anyone that is +ve will know how to protect others from contracting it by practicing self Isolation and use of nose mask. 1 Like |

ajimotoke: These guys need to explain why it cost so much. From reports, most of the lab equipments were donated by private individuals. Is it collecting the swab with kits still donated? I don't get it. |

Slawormir: Don't mind them. It has jumped from N10,000 to N50,000. When most of the lab equipments and kits were donated by private sector organisations. So where is the cost coming from. No wonder the NCDC monopolised testing. Even when private organisations donate equipments, NCDC takes over ownership and charge N50,000 for the tests. Crooks. |

Don’t frget that there was no structure before the pandemic hit. Nigerian government have under funded the health sector for years, that’s why you see even basic things take eternity to put together. Hopefully they would change after this experience TheGoodJoe: |

It is good to hear that the virus is not a death sentence. There is no need to disseminate fear any more. |

joeluv: Underfunding has nothing to do with securing PCR Machines and test kits. If Private organisations can get it, nothing stops the Lagos Government after receiving billions from medical grant from FG, Allocations and donations to source and carry out aggressive testing. They are just not serious and interested in Stealing money. |

If you calculate it with 45k for each text, that will give you 720,000,000 just for 16,000 text. So if they text 100,000 people, that should be like 4billion plus. Our politicians are worst than devil. |

Abeg where does the money they paid for testing goes? Is it to WHO or ?? Please someone help me with the answer 1 Like |

pompo47: You're not so smart. A patient doesn't need to be positive before they take the 50k per head. They can just print some names and claim they test negative and there will be no one to question them. So when they say a case is positive, it's likely to be really positive. Generally, your comment portrays an ignorant person with a smartphone. 2 Likes |

cheerishMe: As in eh. NCDC did not buy test kits. NCDC did not buy PCR machines. Yet they are telling us the tests cost N50,000. Is it the putting of the swabs in the machine that increased the cost? |
