COVID-19: 20 Nigerian Medical Doctors Died A Week Ago - NMA by jaybenugo: 10:52am On Dec 26, 2020
Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) has announced that 20 doctors died of Coronavirus complications within the past seven days, IgbereTV reports.

Enema Amodu, chairman of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) in the federal capital territory (FCT) said this during a press briefing on Friday December 25.

Amodu stated that medical personnel are in need of personal protective equipment (PPEs) as the second wave of infections in the country has been “catastrophic”.

He said;


“Everywhere around the world at this time, we are facing a second wave, and this second wave is so overwhelming and more catastrophic because a lot of people have gone back to the way of doing things thinking that the virus is over, and it is gone and they have let their guards down.
“For those of us in the health sector, we have lost quite a number of colleagues in the last one week alone. Across the nation, we have lost professors, consultants, residents (both senior and junior), very senior medical officers and nurses – some of them you may not hear of and some you may hear depending on the circumstances and whatever positions they are occupying. This goes to show that this virus is very much with us and they call it a second wave, but it is actually a continuum because it never really left us.
“I am here this afternoon on Christmas Day to solidarise first with the families of our members that have lost loved ones. I want to make it public that we are with you in this very trying and grieving moment of sadness over the loss of our colleagues who most likely are the breadwinners of their families. We also want to use this opportunity to talk to our patients; when you come to us in the hospitals and clinics, please oblige us and wear your mask. Tell us the truth about your past medical condition and don’t hold any information back.
“The figure of the number of our colleagues that have died is evolving everyday but as I am standing here, I got a call from a colleague who is in an isolation centre, and he is not sounding very good."

Very sad.
Health practitioners are our gods.

The government should do all it takes to get vaccine for them.

It Amazes me why a disease( Plandemic) with over 99% recovery rate is being advertised and Propagated this way.

Why is the World being Deceived?
It's More shocking that many are blind to these things.
Fear is being Pumped into the world in order to gain Control.

Folks, wake up! The agenda behind Covud19?or 20 is way bigger than what u know.
Do not allow yourself to be cajoled unto Fear!

All of a Sudden, no one dies of Cancer, Ebola, Cancer, etc. it's now all about a Plandemic.
Ebola which is far worse than this flu didn't have all these Panics!

Wake up Folks..
