Something is wrong with the reporting, testing and treatment of Covid 19 in Nigeria

Lack of food may run her immunity down. The emotional stress from not see any medical expert to attend to her may be running down her immunity. They virus can thrive in her body now easily than before.

johnmartus:
Ah this man thought its ordinary malaria I guess. Both of you will just die together and infect other neighbors. Although I understand your pain but you just have to calm down.

You may not understand, that is why I said it is exaggerated and underrated the same time. The mortality and morbidity rate in Spain and Italy is high but look at African countries and the US mortality is low but morbidity is high. Do you think something unique about this virus? A Virologist who is a friend will teach you better. The virus is dangerous and real.

OrestesDante:
Exaggerated

How many people have died already? Do the maths.

He had it but I can tell you Covid19 is exaggerated and underated the same time. I can't explain more than this but a Virologist can.

OperaNewsHubNg:
He never had it in the first place

They were waiting for Americans to start it

Sweetchilli:
Why did it take them so long to order clinical trials

Mr Adivser have you run your own test? If no please shut up because you may have it.

demitola:
You must be very stupid with this assertion. It was on this platform we were shouting that Seyi Makinde was very wreckless in organising rallies, meeting with Davido who was set to perform shortly in a club and the likes. You guys bullied us to shut our crap, saying coronavirus is APC's disease. So how do you even start contact tracing on this governor now? His wife? Children? Deputy? Cabinet members? Party faithfuls?
The problem of Nigeria is NIGERIANS

The governor is asymptomatic yet he has it. You insulting a Governor have you run your own Covid19 test? You may be shock you have it already.

DontBullshitMe:
Incompetent leader/Populist governor.

He was busy organising rally and tongue lashing Ajimobi and APC rather than take proactive steps and measure at limiting the spread of Coronavirus in Oyo state.

Now, he's a victim.

Every man for himself. I have no words of prayer.

You are worse than Timi Frank

sweetsell:
In Nigeria fools are celebrated by Ipob igbo on how foolish their comment can resonate so this isn't surprising at all.

RIP Ma

BeLookingIDIOT:

Do agree it is a bomb explosion?

I am a geologist but I disagree with the prof on this.

The producers and makers of test kits, drugs or vaccine are the real MVPs

Mynd44:
A USA company, Abbott, has received authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the fastest available molecular point-of-care test for the detection of novel coronavirus (COVID-19), delivering positive results in as little as five minutes and negative results in 13 minutes.

What makes this test so different is where it can be used: outside the four walls of a traditional hospital such as in the physicians' office or urgent care clinics.

The test runs on a lightweight box (6.6 pounds and the size of a small toaster) that can sit in a variety of locations.

Because of its small size, it can be used in more non-traditional places where people can have their results in a matter of minutes.

They are ramping up production to deliver 50,000 ID NOW COVID-19 tests per day, beginning next week, to the U.S. healthcare system.

"Through the incredible work of teams across Abbott, we expect to deliver 50,000 COVID-19 tests per day to healthcare professionals on the front lines, where testing capabilities are needed most," said Chris Scoggins, senior vice president, Rapid Diagnostics, Abbott.

An you think the CBN governor is not aware of this ? Borrow US idea may not work for Nigeria because US is not Nigeria. Printing Naira can not help Naira.

BabaO2:
No, your understanding of Tinubu's advice is too elementary. Zimbabwe you are referencing has absolutely nothing to support their economy after the white farmers have been chased away, infact they were alienated by the west. Tinubu is only borrowing America's idea before it is too late when we will start saying had we known bla bla very soon. If America is doing it, why can't Nigeria do it? Who is Yinka odumakin to be discussing parameters of economics and world economy?

You need a new brain. Tribalism has taken the best of you. You too low, hence no further mention from me after this.

Oshigun:
Mumu, who started the thread and who are the most hateful commentators against Tinubu here. Olodo. As if we don't know the antics of you lot. Forment mischief to then turn around to be playing victim.

When you haters learn to speak objectively about Yorubas and their leaders then you may get same in return. Otherwise some of us will always put you in your place because we know the saying "if you can't say something nice don't say anything at all".

Nigeria will become the next Zimbabwe if Tinubu advice is followed

BabaO2:
Yinka odumakin doesn't have the capacity to respond to Tinubu's view and advice to the federal government. This is not elementary economics of mere demand and supply.

Accountant still make mistakes

APCNig:
Bola Ahmed Tinubu is a US trained Certified Chartered Accountant, please what is Yinka Odumakin's profession?

I can't believe I took time to read rubbish. Are members of Afenefere Ibos? Will CBN print notes to dash you at home? SMH

Oshigun:
Bruv leave those hateful charlatans. Most of them are abroad where Oyingbo is providing palliative their own worthless leaders refuse to provide.

Why won't they then not indulge their hateful souls to be talking senselessly against Tinubu who is the one voice today championing the need to provide ordinary Nigerians with palliative before hunger precipitates total break down of law and order.

Another two weeks of lockdown, with no cash coming in for anyone, and we will see if hungry area boys, with no cash to buy food, will not besiege and storm the mansion of their relatives all across Ala Igbo.

Very myopic people who always hate first and think later.

I don't understand, how is IPOB related to Afenefere? Please fix your brain properly before you continue blaming other for your problems.

Oshigun:
Indeed. And for jobless and hateful IPOBians too. At this critical time of lockdown when everyone is facing their direct household, local government and State it is sad to see that it is only IPOBians who continue to obsess about Tinubu and the SW without a care about the Corona status of their respective SE states.

This is why their Governors get away with murder to now be acclaimed worst in Nigeria.

I don't believe this. I repeat I don't believe this. Security agencies should focus on murder. Why not resign? Investigate murder

Not all hospital has the capacity to fight infectious diseases

Olodo24:
Are they not health workers? They're supposed to be brave. If every other health workers act like them, we are finished.

People in Mowe must be honest people

Ok, thanks

Try some other threads.. you can check this one to see how some guys are mocking and 'chest-beating':

https://www.nairaland.com/5760288/explosion-rocks-akure-houses-school

I like to see evidence of those jubilating, so I can report to the appropriate authorities

lx3as:
However, some Southerners already jubilating about theorists' bombing S/west..as if they don't have people over there. Now, they'll be disappointed.

Doctors are just full of themselves. What makes you think people are envy of doctors? Footballers enjoy themselves and earn way more higher that they can even pay you and the lecturer that taught you. Many IT experts still earn better than you. Ventilators is needed in the country now, can doctors create one? A vaccine is needed, can doctors create one? This is 2020, stay woke.

backnbeta:
Funny how you people are always envious of doctors! Only in Nigeria!!!

Is it not better to decentralize the testing so the country don't lose other probable cases to the communities? How many people can NCDC test? Are they not only testing polithiefcians and their families and a few celebrities? Is that what ya all want? Besides, how will doctors cash in on this when they are not saying let doctors test? They just want the tests decentralized so other accredited centers can help speed it up and reach more people

This is a very wrong suggestion. Only covid19 accredited labs should run the test. NMA should only regulate theirs and bastardize others. NMA has only interest of Doctors at heart not Nigerian s.

What have you done or can even do now?

leatherman:
Long overdue, campaign after election

Did you even understand the write up? They have spare treatment space and obviously are in control of the pandemic in their country.

The German president must have the Buhari mentality .
