passion007:Exactly, the only prob is the rate of transmission which is about 70% faster than the previous strain. More so, the vaccine available can be tweaked to suit the new strain. The real cause for alarm is the rate of transmission 1 Like |

Why do the Nigerian Government like to fool people, a country with a population of over 170 million telling us on a daily basis that only less that 10 people died of convid19 on a daily basis. The whole health system is messed up and now they are talking of the new strain |

codemaniacs: I know your point of view, but sometimes, we need to bury some beliefs and let science and true research take its cause. Now, I'm not working with prof Happi or in his lab, but I'm working in a Genomics lab in another w/African state and trust me, no politics about this new variants. It might have been with us (Africa) for a longer time but was not easily detected cos all we do is detection, knowing weda a sample is negative or positive, sequencing a known positive sample is another step entirely and this is where you will get to know if there's a change in the previous sequence comparing it to the new one. Professor is a Cameroonian -Nigerian researcher based in Osun state, Redeemers university. His lab is one of the best molecular biology and Genomics lab in Africa, housing some latest sequencing machines...another lab that comes so close is 54gene in Lagos 1 Like |

I too know is seen on every line of your crappy note..Nigerian youths have bulldozers but will prefer to use hole to clear ignorance, why not visit ACEGID website to know how far instead of catching fun with gibberish? That Prof and that centre have rescued Nigeria from so many disasters..get knowledge thru simple researches! Esseite: |

Thank you for being a succour, I had feared I might not get anyone who can think thru these issues without populism and unnecessary rhetorics! At every given time, ACEGID prides itself in having at least 6 under30 PhD researchers and Nairaland has nothing less than 600,000 under40 PHD (Pull Him Down) commentators, its a pathetic narrative!

From what he's said, the data obtainable from Covid-19 in Nigeria are largely inconsistent and cannot be relied upon to draw accurate inference. While the new strain considered more deadly has reportedly being found in Nigeria since August, there was no spike in the number of Covid 19 cases then. So what then can we attribute to the recent increase? Definitely not the new strain as that has been ruled out. Let's wait and see what new script the government comes up with. It's plausible that the numbers are being padded to mimic what is happening in foreign countries, all for the purpose of cashing out. Wuruwuru federal government. |
