Mumu talk! As long as necessary, and we all should know this will be with us for a while until there is a cure or vaccine.

We can pause humanity just because of a virus, we had a worse case before Spanish flue and black death each causing over 50m deaths.

We have worse diseases killing millions of people yearly like diabetes, Malaria,HiV,hepatitis and cancer etc , no country is shutting down since.

Corona virus fatality is less than 5%, that is if 100 people have corona virus, we will only have about 5 deaths. But poverty, hunger,economic breakdown, insecurity etc which are aftermath effects of the economic shut down will kill millions of people in a short while.

Best solution, rapid,free and cheap test conducted by clinics, pharmacies, hospitals located in all strata's of the society eg higher institutions, schools, communities etc.

Compulsory use of face mask and washing of hands, and for little kids at schools basic education about the virus can be taught.. Like washing hands, dont shake hands, and temperature check at the schools

We can also key in, cheap ventilators and testing kits from Senegal not to be waiting for China, at least 10billion naira can get us the testing kits of about 25million units $1 each from Senegal, that alone will be more than enough.
