The Management of St Joseph Hospital Adazi Nnukwu, Anaocha LGA in Anambra State, has come out to dissociate itself from rumours making waves that a patient suspected to show suspected symptoms of covid 19 absconded from the Hospital and whereabouts unknown.

According to the hospital's administrator, Rev Fr Jerome Okafor, the patient came in for some cardiovascular problem, but his persistent coughing out blood and high temperature aroused the curiosity of some nurses attending to him.

His blood sample was finally collected after some persistent appeals to NCDC who could not respond immediately, but through the direct intervention of the Chief Medical Director of Chukwu Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University Teaching Hospital whom some delegation from the hospital where sent after.

According to Fr Jerome, the patient was discharged against medical advice, paid his bills and left.

Below is the press release.

Your caption is wrong. The hospital is only trying to clearify that they do not have a COVID-19 case in their premesis as reported.

The case of corona virus in Anambra Is Real. The case here was that, it took the NCDC a lot of time to do their work by collectIng the patient sample.
And after NCDC took the samples of the patient from the said hospital, they didn't send the result back to the hospital management. Instead they went ahead to publish the same .

So St Joseph Hospital was not Officially Aware of the test result of their out patients.
Moreover note that this man has other known health underlying conditions before this issue of corona virus. So the hospital treated him and discharge him because his supposed test result is not forthcoming, and the man has connections.

Update: The said man is in Onitsha General Hospital Isolation Center.

Note: with this non-chalant and relutancy attitude of Nigeria Centre For Disease Control over this issue of bracing up to test suspected cases I fear that hundreds of Nigerians will even have the said virus without knowing. (That's not my prayer oooo. But its the fact...).
I pray that we come out of this sooner than later.
May God protect us all and heal our land.
