Good day Nairalanders. Since March this year, Covid-19 has been the major issue in Nigeria as it led to the shutingdown of the economy.

Many people don't believe the existence. My dear people, I was having a double opinion about the existence too. For the first time, I'm beginning to believe the pandemic does exist. My friend who was a Medical Laboratory Scientist with Kaduna State Ministry of Health and the head of the laboratory unit, Gwantu General Hospital was down with malaria like symptoms and treated himself for several days with no improvement.

Though he was a high blood pressure patient. The fever increased and symptoms of Covid-19 started manifesting. He was taken to Kafanchan Gen Hospital but no Doctor agreed to come close to him when they saw his critical condition. He was advised to check into the isolation centre but when they got there, there was nothing on ground as everywhere was dirty with no facility. The family was advised to take him to Kaduna isolation centre but he gave up the ghost as he was under distress all these while.

His samples were taken and it came out positive for Covid-19. His corpse is deposited at Kafanchan Gen Hospital at the moment. The people that were running up and down to save his life were helpless as they watched him dying. Their samples had been collected yesterday, taken to Kaduna today and are awaiting the outcome of the results.

The question they are asking is: why is government saying they have spent huge sum of money with nothing to show for it especially in other parts of the state/country? Should preparation for Covid-19 management be made only in the state capitals? What about towns that are very far from the isolation centres in the state capitals? Government should do something to accommodate the people by creating and equipping more centres in the hinter lands.

Corona virus (Covid-19) is real!
Do you know anybody anywhere in Nigeria who has died as a result of Covid-19?

Blood and fire

That is one valueable person lost to the unseriousness of many people. Another health worker down.

Alot of people will still come out to display their ignorance and call it a fake/ political tool. That's because we have not been opportune to be like US or Italy.

Most people still don't believe there's Covid-19. Everyday FG keeps putting out figures of carriers of the Virus but people don't get to see them.@CanadaorBust hope you're in Canada? It seems the Covid-19 was well dealt with in Canada and well managed.

Fake news.

I discovered that from time to time, the government or NCDC looks for a poster candidate to spread fear of COVID. They usually appear on twitter or other social media platforms either as a Nurse or a doctor or a random person with a scary tale to say that they know someone who has been a victim of covid so as to personalise the whole thing.

Of all the diseases he suffered from, why must covid take the blame?

Covid in Nigeria is nothing but malaria.
People like you voted for Buhari.
Don't worry your family member will call you soon
Re: Coronavirus Is Real. My Friend, A Med Lab Scientist Just Died by smithyemy: 7:56am On Jun 08, 2020
relunctantly, i want to just advise that Covid 19 is REAL. It is a devilish incanated disease. Over there in Nigeria my mother called me she lost one of our family that resides in Lagos state. Here in UK, where it has killed over 40, 000 people: we have many Nigerians among them. I personally knew some Nigerians that were killed here by Coronavirus. For instance, last week while we were driving around BELVEDERE, my wife pointed at the office one of her closed Nigerian friend that died recently of COVID 19. Please. Disregard Covid at your own risk. Am imploring all my fellow Nairalanders to please start keeping safe. Stop commonising these Devilish and devil incantated disease. Please, ve no regard for gender or colour. Please, i care for you all. Nigeria government might be exaggerating the exact number but, that doesnt stop the covid from killing people. About 400,000 people ve died all over the world and we ve about 200, 000 blacks and Africans among them. So, my people think twice before you leap. Also,a word is enough for the wise. I love you all my fellow Nigeria. I missed Nigeria. Off to work. Bye.

Juliusmomoh:

Then covic 19 does not exist , if 800 people can die a day and someone there knew nobody.

Your population is 200 million. 13,000 out of your people have tested ostive to Coivid and 350 have died.

1. What is the mathematical probability that you will now someone who has died from Covid-19?

2. What is the mathematical probability you will know someone who knows someone who has died from Covid-19?

The answer is that the probability is very low, quite lower than the probability of you getting infected.

So keep safe and stop asking those types of questions.

Nobody is arguing that it doesn't exist in Nigeria. All we're saying is our government is blowing it out of proportion for their own personal gains and also using the media as a tool for fear mongering.
Don't bother to quote me if you have issues decoding simple English please

exactly!!! There's no need saying "personal gain" they are using it to loot funds simple.

Corona virus (Covid-19) is real!
Do you know anybody anywhere in Nigeria who has died as a result of Covid-19?

So sorry about your loss. Many in Nigeria believes the disease isn't real even if the disease burden appears lighter than malaria that kills more in Nigerians and the African subcontinent.

With that unbelieving mindset, a lot of Nigerians have thrown caution to the wind by refusing to adhere to precautionary measures, endangering themselves and other innocent Nigerians in the process.

Amongst the elite and most especially the political class, they have taken their own folly an extra notch by turning the situation into a looting venture, lying brazenly to the public that billions of naira have been expended in palliatives and construction of either non-existent or non-equipped isolation centres.

As if that foolery isn't enough, some have taken it further by slashing 25% of their state's civil service salary teeming it a "mandatory donation" for palliatives towards less privileged in the states while some have barefaced my tagged it a lie and refused testing and protection for the health workers in their state domain. I'm writing about that imp in Kaduna state and that sadist in Kogi state.

Well, there's more. The FG has just reneged on her signed agreement of improved hazard allowance for frontline covid health workers and other health workers at large. I hope the citizens will not revel in calling health workers names when they start industrial action in 12 days time. The government was supposed to have fulfilled her promise about two weeks ago. When questioned, they grumbled that they are broke. How da heck d'you expect citizens to believe that gibberish when days ago you approved NASS 200 billion budget and 27 billion naira NASS complex renovation while in the same breath you slashed the education and health budgets?

Who does that?
