TravelInter-state Travel: When Will The Ban Be Lifted? by Akunwafor(op): 6:41pm On May 17, 2020
I am currently stuck outside lagos and I really need to get back to attend to my business projects.

The way I'm burning through cash here is alarming.

I understand the need for the lockdown but since it has been eased down a bit(in lagos), it's only fair I get back to my primary residence to get my affairs in order. Palliatives won't pay the bills.

I heard people are traveling but I don't know how true.

Can anyone at head bridge confirm?

"Giving the drug to a bunch of willing people'? shocked

Lol.

There's what is called 'powering' of a study. In simple terms, this means ensuring the study has sufficient subjects, of the required inclusion/exclusion criteria, etc to be sure the observed effect is due to the drug and nothing else. Getting that number involves complex calculations involving biostatisticians.

And that is just getting the subjects. We've not even talked about the main study itself - a randomized control trials.

Clinical trials can take any where from 3 - 5 years and cost millions if not billions of dollars. The 200million in OP is a very conservative figure.

What Madagascar did is a laughable mockery of science.
Clinical trials are research investigations in which people volunteer to test new treatments, interventions or tests as a means to prevent, detect, treat or manage various diseases or medical conditions.

If you are NOT willing, you CANNOT partake in clinical trials.

Simple definition there for you. I don't know the long story you're saying.

Kobojunkie:
Clinical trials are scientific in nature because there is the need to gather, and analyse data at the end of the day, to reach some final conclusion, in this case of the viability of the drug as far as COVID-19 is concerned. So, no, that has not been done by Madagascar at all.

Kobojunkie:
Well, considering Madagascar failed to carry out any real "Clinical trials" of it's own touted drugs before declaring it a cure, every country that wants to use it will need to carry out it's own "clinical trials" to first ascertain if Madagascar's claims hold's water, before really exposing it's population to it. undecided
Clinical trials isbasically giving the drug to a bunch of willing people and then observing the effects of said drug.

As far as I can tell, they have been doing clinical trials since, only problem is how they're going to be gathering results.

fighal:
And who are those supporting Yahoo boys?

Are you minding the goat. Paypal mentioned "financial regulation", he's there saying rubbish.

My man, @op, I think it has to do with Nigeria's forex policy. I'm not too sure but I'll hazard a guess.

Asides that, I think you have to maintain an account in naira in Nigeria to be able to operate and paypal being dollar-ccentric will see that as a bad investment.

And then information sharing; Nigeria may not be so keen to release numerous information upon information of its citizens to paypal. If you are familiar with paypal US, they usually ask for information uponinformation just to verify you when you have an issue with them, they go as for as asking foryour tax info(lots of info that does not concern them).


But hey, I may be wrong but then, these may be some of the financial regulations they can't work with.

LibertyRep:
There's absolutely nothing wrong in the governor trying to enforce the lockdown order and apprehending defaulters in his state. He has the responsibility to protect the citizens of the state.

What is wrong is the governor trying them on the spot, finding them guilty or otherwise and executing the judgement on the spot!

Where's that done in modern democracy?
So then why are there mobile courts?

Abi you think sey na real judge dey inside mobile court?

Overrunning the whites in the US? How? Blacks are a minority group

Anyways, that is a discussion for a different thread abeg.
African americans made up a whopping 14% of the US population as at 2010. Which was an increase from the 12% of some previous years.

Now, factor in millenials who have decided not to get married and those who are gay and also migration of africans in droves to the US, the stats clearly show that black population will reach about 30% in a few decades.
HealthRe: "Black Patients Are Being Murdered With Gross Negligence" NYC Nurse Cries Out by Akunwafor(m): 3:18pm On May 11, 2020
Blacks have the opportunity of overrunning the whites in the US but sadly, blacks have this disgusting age old attitude of complacency.

The day they wake up and double down, they'll take over the world.

Look at black rappers, multitude of baby mamas, drugs , guns. Imagine if one rapper sponsors everyone on his block to get an education, imagine what will happen.

I can't wait for the day when blacks will lord over whites.
