I hope they would have done the same for an African in Italy if the outbreak started in Africa, but I doubt it. These are the same people always making monkey noise and throwing bananas at black football players.
Don't generalize because I have Italian friends who are very lovely and non-racists. Kind acts like this will put the minority racists to shame.

Call the Italian and confirm. Still douting. Okay oooo. The virus can withstand our weather. Once sun is around 26 to 28 degree Celsius, the virus will die.

Coronavirus may linger in the body for weeks after people recover[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]

A small study out of China suggests that the new coronavirus can persist in the body for at least two weeks after symptoms of the disease clear up.

This sort of persistence isn't unheard of among viruses, experts told Live Science, and thankfully, the patients are most likely not very contagious in the post-symptom period. The findings may even be good news, said Krys Johnson, an epidemiologist at Temple University's College of Public Health. The viruses that tend to hang around in people's systems also tend to be the viruses that the body develops a strong immune response against.

"If the virus is staying in people's systems, then they may not be able to be reinfected," Johnson told Live Science.

After coronavirus
The new study, published in the journal JAMA on Thursday (Feb. 27), followed four medical professionals ages 30 to 36 years old who developed COVID-19 (the disease caused by the new coronavirus) and were treated at Wuhan University's Zhongnan Hospital in China between Jan. 1 and Feb. 15. All of the individuals recovered, and only one was hospitalized during the illness. The patients were treated with oseltamivir, better known under the brand name of Tamiflu, an antiviral drug.

The patients were considered recovered after their symptoms resolved and after they tested negative for COVID-19 twice (on two consecutive days). After recovery, the patients were asked to quarantine themselves at home for five days. They continued to undergo throat swabs for the coronavirus after five days for up to 13 days post-recovery.

The results showed that every test between Day 5 and Day 13 was positive for the virus.

"These findings suggest that at least a proportion of recovered patients still may be virus carriers," the researchers wrote.

The findings come as Japan reported its first case of an individual who recovered from coronavirus and then became ill with the disease for a second time, according to Reuters. Given the new results on post-coronavirus persistence from China, it's not clear what happened with the Japanese patient, Johnson said. One possibility is that she caught a new version of the virus from another person; another possibility is that her own system did not fight off the virus completely and as it began to replicate inside her lungs again, she experienced a resurgence of symptoms.

Don't dull bro, Nigerians aren't dumb. They are only posing for pictures after the man has be confirmed Negative.
One of those women isn't really comfortable with the work but gat to chop.
She looks dejected and not to convinced about the work she is doing.
All in all, they are brave and courageous women...the real slay mamas.

Are we looking for this virus by all means ?


Diz virus is not in our country abi una dey find something else .... UAE reduce the price of petrol to 75% .. that mean they sell it at 2 dirham per litre but now is 50 ct .... Is like when Nigeria price of petrol is 100 naira per litre and now 25 naira .... Those are d issue will shud address

UAE cost of producing crude is less than $9 per barrel. Even at a price of $20 they are still making money on the huge daily production they have. Nigeria cost of production is almost double that and part of the problem is the location of many of the oil wells, the monthly payments made for repair of damage to the infrastructure, payment to ex militants, community leaders not to talk of the implied surcharge of oil bunkering.

When Dangotes refinery takes off, we should see an improvement

At what point did Israel close it borders? Was it immediately after the first case?? How many people are infected Isreal as we speak..
Closing the borders also have very destructive impact just like the Corona virus itself

First accept you’ve been caught in a lie. Here’s what u wrote verbatim: ..Isreal boader are still opened..
Destructive impact? So now we’ve closed the border has the world ended?? Closing schools, churches, sports, gatherings is not destructive?!
Re: Nigeria's Coronavirus Index Patient Discharged After Testing Negative by TourismMan(m): 7:34am On Mar 21, 2020
So na so them discharge this man without telling us his name, show us his face or anything identity? Why is Nigeria handling issues of COVID19 in obscurity as against what is practiced in other countries of the world? When Canadian prime minister's wife was tested public, the whole world was let to know. When Mikel Arteta tested positive, it wasn't a hideous issue. Why is Nigerian government concealing the identity of the victims here in country?

First nation to cure corona keh? Do you guys even think these things through before you type them? Just like most viral infections, treatments can only help with Covid-19 symptoms while you wait for your immune system to fight off the virus. There is no 'cure'. This has been the case with the recovered ex-carriers all over the world. The Italian guy isn't any different. So there is nothing like 'first nation to cure Corona'.

*Edited*
OP, glad you took the correction. Nice one.



Nigeria was still the first nation to find cure to ebola virus so what are you saying, I guess you've lost faith and trust for your country

He tested negative. Scientists, who study these things, have determined that when you've tested negative, you no longer secrete the virus and so are no more infectious, with determined timelines. The woman is following the science. So if someone close to you had it but has tested negative and been discharged, please feel free to visit him or her. Stop stigmatizing people.

Oga scientist, so what is the cure? Someone told you something reasonable and you're discrediting him because you want to be sentimental. There isn't any cure for Covid-19. Patients are supported with drugs to boost immunity and help relieve symptoms, then the person's own immune system fights off the virus. Kindly check the number of people all around the world that have recovered from the virus; more than half actually
What do called " CURE" ? I think the scientist at times like to give bogus theories..Onece you survive any diseases, illness of any kind and your immune did the needful,with every test shown negative symptoms..you have been cured..the clinical analysis can go back and begin be their sweet packages..
