The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that Nigeria has expressed interest to be part of the global solidarity trial of the vaccines being developed to tackle COVID-19 pandemic and efforts are underway to start the process in the country. The Officer in charge, WHO Nigeria and member of the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19, Dr. Fiona Braka, said this on Friday in Abuja, at the 24th joint national briefing of the committee. She also said that 89 vaccines are being developed globally, including seven in clinical evaluation and several therapeutics in clinical trials to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic. She said, “Nigeria has also expressed interest to be part of this solidarity trial and efforts are underway to start the process in Nigeria too.”

But medical experts warn the drug, also known as Favipiravir, may cause birth defects. It cannot be administered to expecting mothers or those who may become pregnant, while careful consideration must be given to allowing men to take it as it is distributed into semen.

As Avigan can inhibit the replication of the virus in cells, experts say it may bring about improvements for those with mild symptoms or those who have recently been infected. It may, however, be much more ineffective for those in whom the virus has already multiplied widely and are experiencing severe symptoms.

They also said Avigan is just one of the options among other candidates as a treatment for the new coronavirus. Those include anti-viral drug Remdesivir, developed as a possible treatment for Ebola virus disease, Ciclesonide, a drug used to treat asthma, and Nafamostat, used to treat acute pancreatitis.

I disagree, Drugs will make the world go back to normal provided it can cure the virus

People are living with other deadly viruses like HIV, Hepatitis.... And the world was normal

There is no vaccine for malaria and co

If there is a drug that can cure this virus, it's a welcome development, death rate will reduce, no more lockdown, free movement, people going to work places, sports is back....

Then whenever or if ever the vaccine is produced, the world still goes on.
For now almost everyone globally is on hold.
God bless u my brother

I like the cooperation of many nations to tackle this pandemic. Japan, America and UK to have discovered vaccines for covid19 is quite impressive and it's a sign we are making progress. By God's grace, we shall triumph over this.
China get ready for the world total boycott. The world is bigger than China.

Golan007:


That's untrue.

The president of Tanzania claims the test kit brought into his country was very unreliable and tested positive when non-human samples for testing such as goats or pawpaw were included in a batch for testing.

Of course, he never mentioned which test kit or from where they were imported.

He also went on to say he would be ordering the publicized Madagascan 'cure' in the coming days.

When we say Nigeria is useless country people will keep telling us not to say that. Just google coronavirus in Japan and see the result. Even if they want to give us pin we should reject it.

Malaria is more dangerous killer than COVID-19 even with several curative options..... State lockdown isnt as effective as pressumed..... Take Cross Rivers State approach for example.... Not a single case..



Coborona:
Seems everyone is now developing a drug
The main question is; how effective are these drugs in the management of covid-19?
Because Covid-19 is still killing people in large numbers

Populist and attractive from a layman point of view - but totally wrong

Almost every infectious disease expert and epidemiologist will tell you without a vaccine (or natural immunity - whichever) we are going nowhere. A cure can only do so much.

Apples and oranges. Most Africans have some level of immunity to malaria hence the spread is lower. Most importantly, IT IS NOT SPREAD PERSON TO PERSON. All these don't apply to Covid-19.

Because of all these the control measures are very different.

No...death rate has dropped around the world. Drugs like Remsidivir which the US FDA just approved has about 30%+ success....also they use other retroviral drugs to treat it. Effectiveness can't be 100% now. Better treatment are still coming up....UK started plasma treatment that's using the blood of a recovered person to cure an infected person

No it has not.

Without the vaccine they will always be cases , this virus is not malaria or hiv . U can’t contact this 2 virus by touching or having close contact but u can contact this virus by breathing a droplet of an infected person when they sneeze or cough and it’s contagious it can stay in the air or iron for many minutes so drug is temporary.

Please how long can it last on a surface,any idea? thanks.

A simple internet search about this drug will help and save you time on arguments..
Note it countries like Egypt and China are already using it

Gerrard59:


China uses the drug, are they Guinea pigs?

We are all humans whether Chinese, Egyptian, or Nigerian, so the nationality of the recipient doesn't matter.

In fact, the more people that adopt the use of the drug, the better...it gives the Jap company a larger sample size/data.

Is Japan Santa? Why do you think they are giving the drug out for free?

it has not been scientifically proven. it just like those that used mixture of honey, lime or lemon,ginger,garlic and blackseed.to get better but doesn't work on others.

So, is there something wrong with collecting data from a drug used in the treatment of a disease it was not initially meant for?
