I don't think the Novel virus has anything to do with weather. Best bet is humidity and humid areas favour its survival (still not proven)

Quite the opposite. Why do people delight in saying what they don’t know??

Effect Of Temperature On COVID-19: An Unscientific Investigation.

In the early days of the Coronavirus scourge, many Nigerians believed that we wouldn't be affected because of our hot weather. Now that we're testing

But I wrote on this way back in mid March.
It is SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN that coronavirus is adversely affected by: a) heat b) humidity c) light.
In other words a TROPICAL climate.
Add to that our immune-boosting vitamin D from hot sun and immunity built up over the years fighting malaria and other diseases!

Are you Chinese ambassador or their advocate?
I pray the scale in your eyes should be cleared ASAP....... All I can see in these your post is trying to force Nigerians to be empathetic with your sympathy for them..... it's just as if you are telling a guy to marry a Lady, just cos the lady has been there for him all thru...... undermining other critical issues their union will result....
Be proactive please
You're just busy flooding every thread with this your sympathetic write up ..... I am pretty sure that a Chinese man composed this write up for u

Guy has a big problem! Keeps writing same crap everywhere.
Glorifying what he doesn’t know. Comparing secretive totalitarianism where citizens are under tight control and everything they do monitored to an open democratic society. Plus the Chinese as a people are very racist towards black people and also very sneaky and dishonest.

China will secretly lend an African country money they know fully well they can’t pay back. But they won’t actually give them any money instead they will build infrastructure at exorbitant price and interest - because it is really just a way to sell Chinese goods and labor. Then when they inevitable default, China owns the country! It is called predatory lending. Other countries find it hard to determine what amount to lend African countries because it is very hard to find out how much they already owe China!

BTW, because a virus started from a place does not mean
that place spread it. Only one region in China was infected
and that region is now backup but foreigners went there to
carry, then distribute to other parts of the world. When
China
raised the alarm of the virus, all the western leaders
(major)
claimed it was a lie(hoax), people like Trump and Johnson
were mocking China with the virus. Now you want to turn
around to wail at the same China that raised the alarm,
then
went to work to help their own citizens. Name one country
a
Chinese national infected! I'm not supporting anybody tho

Guy what is your problem really? U keep writing the same ignorant nonsense after even after you’ve been shown u r wrong.

See total ignorance. China covered up the virus and even directly lied to heads of states, and arrested doctors who tried to blow the whistle (see below).
COVID-19 WOULD HAVE BEEN LIMITED BY 95% BUT FOR CHINESE COVER-UP!
Also China directly exported corona to major hotspots like Italy:

On 31 January, the first two cases of COVID-19 were confirmed in Rome. A Chinese couple, originally from Wuhan, who had arrived in Italy on January 23 via Milan Malpensa Airport travelled from the airport to Verona, then to Parma, arriving in Rome on 28 January. The next afternoon, they developed a cough, and by evening the man had a fever; the couple were taken to Lazzaro Spallanzani National Institute for Infectious Diseases where they tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 and were hospitalised.[19][3] On 31 January, the Italian government suspended all flights to and from China and declared a state of emergency. Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte said Italy was the first EU country to take this kind of precautionary measure.[20] The government also introduced thermal scanners and temperature checks on international passengers arriving at Italian airports.[18]

Seun:
It looks as if the reign of the dreaded Coronavirus is nearing its end as countries are beginning to realize that the WHO’s guidance against wearing face-masks is comically, tragically, obviously, and totally wrong.

For example:
https://www.latimes.com/science/story/2020-04-03/cdc-recommends-wearing-face-masks-during-coronavirus-pandemic

Here in Nigeria, Cross River and Abia states have decided to allow people to come out of their homes if they have face-masks on. The Government of Abia State even charged tailors to sew 3 million face-masks because imported face-masks are scarce right now.

We are waiting for the federal government to implement this policy nationally so that we can shut down the Coronavirus instead of shutting down our economy.

PLEASE CREATE ANOTHER THREAD EMPHASIZING THAT FACE-MASKS ARE NO SUBSTITUTE FOR SOCIAL DISTANCING (staying 6ft from people)!!!!!

This is EXTREMELY important as fask-mask will tend to give a FALSE sense of security!! Face-masks are mainly to prevent u giving it to others.
IT DOES NOT PROTECT U ALL THAT MUCH!!!

People shoutd do more research about the convid-19, The fear of convid-19 weakens your immune system.the installation of 5G is going on around the world... do your research the few that control the world are to be blame... things will not the the same again

The 5G radiation causes people to have convid-19 Symptoms

But a pandemic hits roughly every 100yrs. How did 5G radiation cause the others. Maybe it’s just that the world is overdue for a pandemic. U think?

There s no cure or special treatment. The body cures itself and expels the virus, but it takes time. Meanwhile u need to keep the patient alive while the body is doing it’s work. U keep the patient alive by treating the symptoms and by putting them on ventilator when they can barely breathe on their own.
I’ll send u bill for this

WHY DID NAIRALAND RUSH UNVERIFIED NEWS CONCERNING SUCH A SENSITIVE TOPIC TO FRONT PAGE??!!!!!!!!!!!
Lalasticlala, Seun

sammyj:
This man lacks deep thinking or does this implies that all Oyo state residents are already infected or sick Because from a professional point of views and recommendations from WHO and CDC only medical personnel and sick people should be wearing face masks!!

WHY?? WHO has been wrong so many times, the director should resign. First they said there was no human to human transmission, then they advised no travel ban.
Asymptotic people can spread the virus so EVERYBODY should wear mask!! Personally I think it should be a law

MrBrownJay1:
the lockdown happened but sadly it didnt stop the infection rate, nor death rate...

Thanks.
Stay well

MrBrownJay1:
any ignoramus (major minister or yaba left patient) who says this is an act of god or other nonsense claims about 5G or whatever, is indeed highly stupid.

as for the deluded bastard who said said that HIV came from Africans fukcing monkeys, he is just another one of these deluded people.

Can u explain this graph about France. What happened in mid March

MrBrownJay1:
some idiots will say its sign from god, others the sign of the devil...some would even say its sign of the end of the world, and lastly, some will say the coronavirus is a hoax that doesnt exist... now instead of using your brain and making intelligent comment, you want to use the dumb illogical nonsense spread by these donkeys?!?!? i guess you must be out of argument.

U r calling FFK dumb and illogical donkey?! He was a major minister, a heartbeat from the president, and u call him that?? If he catch u eh. Lol

Bros, call it chimera call it camorra, as long as u accept it is something that has been happening forever and will keep happening, that there is no gigantic world conspiracy behind it.

Meanwhile here is the real source:

COVID-19 and the Mark of the Beast, By Femi Fani-Kayode

They are trying to destroy us all and establish a New World Order in the name of Lucifer and place us under the rulership of Beelzebub and the Prince of Darkness.

Coronavirus or “Covid 19” is part and parcel of that unholy and evil agenda. It is a ravenous beast and an unrelenting, evil plague. It is a demonic spirit that they cultivated and manufactured through the introduction and usage of 5G and that they invoked from the pit of hell.

Of course

MrBrownJay1:
thats old news bro...
AGAIN. YOU CAN STAY BLINDED OR RECEIVE THE INFO, THE CHOICE IS YOURS:
it is WELL KNOWN by now that COVID-19 is a chimera between two other pre-existing viruses. For this to have happened NATURALLY, both viruses need to infect the same organism (immune to these viruses) at the same time, to thereafter recombine within that organism to form this chimera virus and start infecting other organism that aint immune to it.... this is the grey area that nobody can answer.

EDUCATE YOURSELF ON THIS ISSUE SO I DONT HAVE TO DO IT FOR YOU
its now well known that the 1st confirmed case of coronavirus had NO CONTACT/LINK whatsoever with the Wuhan market. it has been confirmed that a 55yr old man from Hubei provence who died of the virus on the 17th of November ONE FULL MONTH before the 1st case from the market in Wuhan was reported), is the earliest known covid-19 infected person. DUH!!!

EDUCATE YOURSELF ON THIS ISSUE SO I DONT HAVE TO DO IT FOR YOU

@bolded, WRONG! It was a 61 year old man from that wet market (see NY Times below).

This is not the first coronavirus to originate in a wet market. The virus gets more adapted to, and more problematic for, humans with time. The very first person to get it from the animal could have been asymptotic or at most had a mild fever and quickly recovere.

Your chimera talk holds no water. U r no scientist. There is no debate among scientists that the virus came from an animal and that it is not from some lab.

HERE’S THE ARTICLE (see the man’s pic below it)

I have found the cure for coronavirus – Enugu based professor

I have found the cure for coronavirus – Enugu based professor

A Nigerian alternative medicine practitioner, Prof. Joseph Akpa, says he has found cure for the current coronavirus pandemic through energy health curative means.

Professor Akpa, who is the Provost of Luminar International College of Alternative Medicine, Enugu, made the claim to newsmen in a press conference held in Enugu on Wednesday.

According to him, he had already made energy health medicines superficially meant to boost the human immune system and others meant to directly attack the virus to ensure 100 per cent successful cure.

“I will challenge any health institution or agency to bring any known case of coronavirus to me and see how it will disappear within few days.

“If the Permanent Secretary of Enugu State Ministry of Health or the State Government approaches me to cure any of the known cases of coronavirus in the state I will voluntarily do so without attaching any condition to it.

“I thank God for using me to find the cure to a disease that is already threatening to wipe out the whole earth,” he said. Prof Akpa blamed the outbreak on the quest to be supreme super human species among the Chinese and others.

“These people during their meditation engage in what is known as Astral Travelling in which the spirit leaves the body and travel to these planets to probe what is there and at times steal certain substances which they bring back to the earth.

“So be that some of these unworthy activities of the human beings affected the planet Mercury and in reaction now sends the deadly radiations of the coronavirus to the earth,” he said.

Akpa advised that humans should restrict themselves in knowing more about the earth; while abiding by the laws of God and ensuring that human beings stop racing to manufacture equipment of destruction.

“Finally, however, I will teach you, journalists, some self-protective habits and also give each of you a bottle of Immunity Enhancement. “Before ending this briefing I like to inform you that all the planets have also their positive effects on the human beings here on earth, you can find this in many of my works,” Akpa said.

So much for social distancing!

Listen and learn. The absolute patient(s) zero will never be known. Like 80% they probably had minor symptoms and quickly recovered
OR like 95% they had moderate symptoms that never required any special care.

What we do know is that it came from animals and that the first death and cluster of patients were from the largest wet market in the world. Gives u a pretty good idea where it came from. See below

Seun:
Staying at home is not the answer for a country with so much poverty. There is no point in saving ppl from the Coronavirus only for them to die of hunger and malnutrition and increased crime. The lockdown policy is simply unsustainable. It is at best a temporary measure to enable the government to get it’s act together. It is not a long-term strategy.

Your post should have ended right there - concise yet says it all.

Japan is actually doing what u r suggesting and it seems to be working just fine despite their being close to Wuhan and not having advantages of our tropical climate. Same with Seol, South Korea (see below)
India, on the other hand, is having very serious problems, not from the virus, but from the lockdown.

Below is an argument I presented to a guy quite some time ago:
—————————

Ok, it is established fact that AT MOST we’d lose less than 2% of those who get this virus (though currently it is 0% for Nigerians permanently living in Nigeria!). 80% of those who get the virus either never have symptoms or have very mild symptoms.
How many people do u think will die if there is mass starvation plus all the social ills that’d come with closing down everything? Plus the irreversible damage to the economy?
If u calm down and look at it UNEMOTIONALLY you’d see the sense in what I’m saying. (Also remember that both our birth rate and population density are quite high).

Also, SINCE THE DEATH RATE IS SO LOW, we can go the herd immunity route - gradually as more and more people recover and therefore develop immunity to the virus, we’d eventually develop herd immunity, at which point the virus is defeated.

Here’s the rest of my argument to the guy (which is totally original by the way):

First of all we’d be doing everything other countries are doing except TOTALLY shut down our society. People will be sentisized to not crowd together, to social distance, to wash hands, to use face masks, etc, PLUS we’d also be treating those we can treat, which will save some. So there’d be no “everyone is allowed to be infected at the same time, with no one taking care of anybody“.

Secondly, it is established that 95% of the infected, get well without needing any special medical care (so for them it is just like, say, malaria)

Thirdly we’d have more people who have survived the virus and therefore whose blood have immunity and can be used to treat the sick (this has been shown to work)

Fourthly, ok I know this is not a diplomatic thing to say but it is the truth: we should remember we are overpopulated.
It is better that we fight a war and win and come out stronger (though losing some people), than to close everything and hide like cowards because of an enemy we know we can defeat (though we’d lose some people while doing it). Countries have gone to war instead of surrendering, knowing fully well they’d lose half their people!

otokx:
You cannot compare Ghana with Nigeria, their population is much smaller. It is like comparing UK and US

The sample is those who test positive so overall population doesn’t matter.

I’m fairly sure it is because Ghana has more false positives - people who mistakenly test positive
