Well personally I don't know anyone who has been infected or died of the novel covid-19 virus, with the hype and rate of increase as purported by our government and the secrecy sorrounding those they claim to have it, I have my doubts regarding the figures.

I have personally followed Ghana on worldometer.info and Ghana's covid cases has remained below 1300 and just 9 deaths over the past week(s). So what does Ghana know that we don't.

Also I read a report on yahoo news saying sunlight easily kills the virus and we all know that the sun in Nigeria can boil yam in the right circumstance.

Another thing I noticed is that as soon as the European union gave Nigeria a 27 billion grant, the cases started to rise uncontrollably. Anyway thats my observation.

So do you know anyone with the virus or has the NCDC Being to your area to pick any suspected case.

Let us know.

If someone makes the claim, you will believe him/her because they say so?
This means that common sense is actually foolishness
Foolishness is making up your mind you won't believe anyone that claims to know besides I don't have any reason not to believe

Nope. That's why I don't really believe that there is corona in Africa. Prove me wrong

Do you personally know of any one (acquaintance/relation) who has $1bn or more in Networth?
(I may be wrong but there's a high chance your answer is No.)

Can I now conclude that there are no dollar billionaires in existence since you & I don't know one personally.
(assuming your answer is no).

You don't have to go to the USA to believe it is a real place.

Do you have to suffer the loss of a loved one to know that the Virus is real— even though you know it killed the President's friend?

Is your loved one's life worth clearing your doubts?

God help us.

Poor masses you say, the disease never originated here; then how did the poor masses who never left the shores of the country get it

The same way the non travelling masses in other nations got infected: By interaction with already infected returnees.

Except you want to stake all you have that no imported case escaped detection and isolation... Can you??!

Covid19 is a huge scam by Bill Gates and his Satanic illuminati group.

It is not different from the common cold seasonal flu that people have been having.

They just twisted it, gave it a new name and a Plandemic is born.

He will now use the excuse to introduce any one of his numerous vaccine projects to depopulate the world.

Luckily for the world, their scam has been hugely exposed this time around.

To be honest I marvel at the level of Ignorance displayed by many Nigerians. And to worsen it, everyone has turned specialist statistician and medical juggernut with some funny theories that made me appreciate even more the number of years I have spent through med school and practice.

And my answer is simple! Visit any isolation centre of your choice, have someone cough into your face then go home to your aged parents and tells us the story from your first hand experience in 3wks.

He quoted Ghana without stating the stark difference in the number of tests between both nations and how it affects COVID-19 statistics between Nigeria and the rest of the world.

Well I have quit trying to convince people cos they will never understand until it gets to them.

The numbers displayed on worldometer is grossly underreported cos it doesn't include deaths in the communities and homes as well as cases in people who self isolated and the assymptomatic patients that never got tested.

Well they will never understand. And the worst is the fact many persons lack basic understanding of finance and economics when they quote how Govt is cashing out. Like why would they want to kill an Economy that will so benefit their looting for rudimentary crumbs from WHO, EU and private donors put together...

Na who go na him sabi..

can you stay on lockdown till the whole country is tested, I mean can they test over 190million nigerians

Have u wondered why NCDC stopped sending sms

What exactly are you driving at?

Why should the whole country get tested?
Testing is usually for those who are symptomatic and asymptomatic people who may have come in contact with symptomatic people.

Since you want to be sure so as to know that the figures are not scam, I pray for you that the next figures of infection will come from your household and it shall lead to subsequent death. Please say amen.

What rubbish. Do you all think it's easy, go to the household of those affected then you will know that Jesus is Lord.

If you are so inquisitive, just go to the isolation centres and expose yourself to the disease by then you can be absolutely sure.

Foolish.

In as much as I believe COVID-19 is real, but it has been politicized in Nigeria. Malaria is generally more deadly than COVID-19. But in Nigeria we know the effect of malaria is not widely felt compared to the whites.
malaria get drug, if you go to health centre they might even give u free, this disease does not. it relies on immune system to fight. one can never predict how it will go if one contracts it. even the healthy ones do die. Pls lets stay safe.

the truth is Corona virus is in Nigeria and they have started playing politics with it,if a governor recover using local solution and Chief medical of Uith also recovered using local solution,why not allow people to go that way but because of politics and the money they want to steal they will not allow them do the needful that is why they are cooking up figures,like the case of the the doctor that die in uyo.kano own is just a scam

If we go by this analogy, that means, millions of Nigerians would have been infected for atleast 2months back, so are they all now immune, why haven't they died or showed symptoms

Is it after testing they now treat what didnt kill them before testing, it doesnt take that long to get infected and survive the disease

You people should stop spreading misinformation and baseless speculations. The novel coronavirus is resistant to heat, nothing like "sun will kill it". The research has been done and it has shown it requires boiling temperatures sustained for 15mins to completely neutralise the virus so stop spreading false information.

Okay from the period of getting infected, for those with weak immune system, how long does it take to die of the disease if the country has been on lockdown since march and those returnees infected others earlier before we went on lockdown

why have they survived till now
