Your assignment was to show us where the word ELIMINATED was uttered in the article.

Return to your assignment and show us where they said the eliminated CV threat in Lagos state.

Make sure your answer is not your worthless and irrelevant can't read and comprehend opinion.

Submit your assignment when you are done.

Ravon:
Lagos State Government has disclosed that it has been able to break the circle of person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 from the index case in the State.

The Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi, who disclosed this at a news briefing to give updates on the #COVID19Lagos said all other identified contacts of the index case, except the positive contact who has now tested negative to the virus and discharged, have exceeded the 14 days quarantine isolation period without symptoms.

He said, “The remaining contacts of the index case; those in Ogun and Lagos States remain symptom-free and they have exceeded their 14 days surveillance, which means that we do not expect that any of them will turn positive from direct contact with the index case”.

''
In simple words, that means in Lagos, we have been able to interrupt the transmission between the index case and anybody in this environment, we have broken the circle of transmission and have not given the virus the opportunity to spread beyond one person. So, the threats posed by the index case to Lagos and Nigeria has been eliminated
and we have not gotten an outbreak as a result of the interventions that took place in Lagos”, the Commissioner added.

Abayomi explained that the positive contact of the index case tested negative after two consecutive tests conducted on him, noting he has been certified to be virus-free and subsequently discharged.

“His tests initially showed that he was positive to Coronavirus twice and now, he has tested negative to the virus on two consecutive tests carried out on him”, he said.

However, on the index case, Abayomi stated that the Italian being managed at the Mainland General Hospital, Yaba remains on admission although perfectly well now, he is still secreting the virus, stressing that the patient is getting closer to being discharged as his immune system is gradually wiping out the virus.

“He is perfectly well now, we are only keeping him because he still has some secretion of the virus. The test shows that anytime from now, he may be negative. If he is negative, we will conduct another test within 48 hours after and if he is still negative, we will set him free. We are close to discharging the index case, we want to be sure he poses no danger to society anymore”, Abayomi stated.

The Commissioner, however, assured members of the public not to panic stating that government will continue to respond swiftly and take necessary actions to contain the spread of the disease, adding that the Lagos will continue to strengthen its surveillance and will be sending more medical personnel to the point of entry at the Airport.

A sachet of condom would ve prevented this...

We need to popularise use of IUDs in Nigeria. It is a long term solution to unwanted pregnancies in Nigeria. If we can arrange discrete installation for women who request it dumped babies will be a thing of the past

Clearly an abortion done halfway through the pregnancy. Some people really shouldn't be getting pregnant in the first place.

NGpatriot:
Sounds like you are cursed for magically seeing ELIMINATED even though it was never uttered. They said they broke the circle of person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 from the index case in the State, they were talking about this singular case and singular issue, the primary index in Lagos state, they are not talking about eliminating any threats against Lagosians.




Inside the same article, the state officials clearly stated that they are still monitoring and ready to respond to any outbreak, so why monitor and still ready to respond to any breakup If according to your misguided made up story they've eliminated the threat?

You can not make up your own interpretation and story just because you lack reading and comprehension skills because broken the circle of transmission regarding on single index doesn't automatically mean they have eliminated the threats posed to Lagosians in general.

Whatever rubbish you made up is strictly your own ignorant opinion, PERIOD.

Stop reasoning like a 2 year old baby.

Maybe you're just blind for insisting that the part of the article I quoted doesn't exist. It is in the third paragraph, stop deceiving yourself. You seem really determined to stick to this lie.

They are talking about monitoring the airport for new cases aside from the the current Italian man dummy. That is what they should have done before Mr Italian left Lagos, now because we know the virus survives in the air for about 30 minutes and on surfaces for up to 2 days, the claim that the virus has not been transmitted from this man to anyone else is uncertain.

NiCurious:
Point above is well made. Covid 19 is a novel virus, meaning that it is new and we are still learning about it. Nobody has all the information about it, so for all of us to get into heated arguments about it at this stage, would be like the fable of the six blind men and the elephant.

The Commissioner's statement only speaks about the index case in Lagos, but can be taken to mean, and has been by some, that Nigeria has taken triumphant measures to prevent its arrival and spread. Whereas a lady in this thread said she arrived back in Nigeria recently, to no screening in the airport at all.

In time, the hot climate may prove to kill the virus naturally (not all viruses are stopped by hot weather). If that is the case, then it might be more a case of good luck and nature, than good management, if Nigeria is spared--given the long incubation period where carriers are contagious before falling sick themselves, and crowded conditions. (Saying this is without disrespect to the medical staff containing the said case in Lagos, as they did not receive the patient immediately.)

Attached is a map of affected countries, updated today. It has changed since last version posted on this thread. The map does not indicate race or nationality of those affected, nor whether they carried or failed to carry anointing oil, or eat whichever supposed miracle food, etc.

I wish all of you good health, and to not forget to still take precautions when it comes to malaria, typhoid, HIV, food poisoning, etc., because of being distracted by Covid 19.

Thank you very much this encapsulates my thoughts on this subject. Just because we can't see a snake in the grass does not mean we are safe.

Good work has been done and we do not need to relax because of this one person. I just hope that COVID-19 is properly contained because if not others with serious diseases will be affected and our already strained health care system might not cope.

NGpatriot:
The LASG said they broke the circle of person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 from the index case in the State, but you miraculously and magically saw the word ELIMINATED and went on posting about irrelevant rubbish and links about people showing symptoms or not showing symptoms as if we are dumb or don't know anything about the virus and how it operates.

Go and lecture other people about the virus because I know more than you, but the topic is about the LASG breaking the chain of transmission from the primary index in LASG, you are not going to make up your own story to distract from what was said just because you have reading and comprehension issues or oversabi.

Btw, I still need you to show us where the LASG said anything about ELIMINATED, but I'm 100% sure you can not, it was your own lie and fabrication.

“In simple words, that means in Lagos, we have been able to interrupt the transmission between the index case and anybody in this environment, we have broken the circle of transmission and have not given the virus the opportunity to spread beyond one person. So, the threats posed by the index case to Lagos and Nigeria has been eliminated and we have not gotten an outbreak as a result of the interventions that took place in Lagos”, the Commissioner added.

Are you cursed?

Sorry, I can not read this irrelevant post, just highlight the spot where the LASG said they eliminated anything in the article.


Thanks in ADVANCE..

Of course you won't read it, just like you didn't read the previous posts I sent then went on to argue blindly.

I quoted the commissioner in the article and even made his declaration of threat elimination bold for your stubborn, ass licking self to see but no, you don't want to read. You blind government fanatics and APC media stooges make me sick.

Just carry yourself and go already if you won't read it.

It's not scientifically proven.. stop speaking like an illiterate.

Infact masturbation has no effect on the body and the myth that it leads to erectile dysfunction is also not proven.. if you have any erectile dysfunction, look for the root cause and don't cheaply blame it on masturbation.
DSoj

To the body there is no difference between sex and masturbation, people just come up with lies to make it look bad. That's like saying having frequent sex leads to low sperm counts but nobody says that because it isn't true.

Short answer no

Long answer Nooooooooooo

This is why we need sex education to be added to school curriculums.

NGpatriot:
See, your posts are clear reflections of your own inability to properly read, comprehend and digest what you read, you basically formulated your own interpretation and narratives and ran away with it.


Eliminated as your so called keyword is responsible for your lousy comprehension, the article did not say anything about eliminating the virus anywhere, the state official said they've been able to break the circle of person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 from the [color=#990000]index case in the State.,

The keyword you should have paid attention to is the #index case which they have successfully tackled unless you have your own proof that they have not successfully handled the index case in Lagos, but due to your own lousy comprehension skills, you made up your own word and narratives about Eliminated which was never uttered in the article or by the state official.

This is your number one error.



Before your next lack of reading and comprehension post, please make sure you have proof that the article said the LASG ELIMINATED COVID-19 in Lagos or anywhere in Nigeria

The state official narrowed his speech to the Index Patient in Lagos state and the fact that they broke the circle of person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 from the index case in the State.

How is talking about the index case that they successfully handled = ELIMINATED?

Where is the word ELIMINATED in the article.?

Stop blaming other people for your own inability to properly read and comprehend simple English words.


Btw, ipob mentality has nothing to do with a tribe or ethnic identity, it's a mentality and flawed sense of thinking.

“In simple words, that means in Lagos, we have been able to interrupt the transmission between the index case and anybody in this environment, we have broken the circle of transmission and have not given the virus the opportunity to spread beyond one person. So, the threats posed by the index case to Lagos and Nigeria has been eliminated and we have not gotten an outbreak as a result of the interventions that took place in Lagos”, the Commissioner added.

Must I quote the same thing to you again?

Must I also post these articles again because I'm sure you didn't read them?

Before judging someone else's reading comprehension you should work on your own.

The above statement by the commissioner is also an assumption, the people who met Mr Italian that he remembers are virus free, other individuals who interacted in passing or were just in the same area as him and travelled might not be. This is why I say it it still premature to call the operation a success and declare the threat to Nigeria eliminated, as the mode of transmission is not fully understood and proper quarantine measures were not taken before this incident.

Like I said I hate IPOB, maybe what other people call common sense is your idea of IPOB mentality. Not everyone who criticises the government led by your political party is a separatist.

NGpatriot:
Of course they can say that because they have dealt with the cases they were confronted with and they are basically telling you that they have done that and they don't have any case on the table to deal with so where is the bragging in that?

Do you have your own special cases of reported CV infection to counter their claim with?

The key word here is eliminated, based on how the virus spreads, and due to the fact that not everyone shows symptoms it it premature to say it is completely eliminated. If they made this statement in June with no new cases I would commend them but our dear Italian friend landed last month and went all round Lagos and Ogun for 2 days before being reported by his company for being sick. Just imagine the government didn't take the necessary precautions until the man's workplace reported him, this is why I don't trust their handling of the situation.

NGpatriot:
Evil wishing ipobs, Nigeria is greater than you and God is greater than you, your evil wishes won't manifest.

What are you even saying I hate IPOB and I'm not even igbo, don't let your political affiliation blind you to common sense.

Nairalandmonika:
Is it not the same north I traveled through last week, make una dey deceive una sef with all this pictures, all the pictures displayed here account for less than one percent of northern Nigeria

It's like snapping only Banana Island, Ikoyi and Lekki and claiming Lagos is the richest and cleanest city in the world.

xcabczyxabczzzz:
It is high time the government declare the entire country as an affected state. Because it is very likely that people might have the virus already but due to lack of information on identifying the symptoms, he would just be sharing it and before you know it.....

This is what a sensible individual would have done but I'm sure an APC ass licker is going to tell me how Nigeria has more sophisticated monitoring systems than China because the 100 people they checked since February don't have symptoms.

NGpatriot:
That quote explained the current status and realities on the ground and for you to think they are declaring victory for updating you that they have dealt with the cases of CV in Lagos and Nigeria because of the actions taken to eliminate the current threat, then you have serious comprehension issues.

Don't worry, I know people like you are very sad because y'd love to see massive outbreak, doom and gloom, but God is on our side.

The best you cowards can do is to commend the efforts of the Nigerian men and women on the front line fighting to keep this virus away from you, fighting to protect you and your family is to pray for them and their families.

So according to them they can say with a 100% certainty that there is not one individual in Lagos who is infected?

Rather than make a disclaimer that they are still monitoring this is a definitive statement, stop asslicking please.

You are also very foolish in that statement you made about health workers. We still have flights from countries with a high number of cases. There isn't a mass testing of health workers in the state, they haven't even given guidelines in the hospital I work at except for calling their toll free number if you show symptoms. Other countries are making huge steps to contain the spread but in Nigeria it's mostly business as usual.

When you end the unconstitutional sharia law I will take you seriously.

NGpatriot:
There's a difference between giving updates and declaring victory.

If you don't know the difference between the 2, that's your own problem, not the government.

'So, the threats posed by the index case to Lagos and Nigeria has been eliminated and we have not gotten an outbreak as a result of the interventions that took place in Lagos”, the Commissioner added.'

Compare it with this nugget of information and tell me this isn't premature.

The Nigerian government is not claiming victory; they are just saying things the way they are at the moment. What they have said is based on facts available to them, and that has not stopped the screenings being done at the airports and other entry points. We are not letting down our guard; stop being a pessimist please. The coronavirus is not a death sentence, some Nigerians may have it as we speak; but that is just an assumption.

It is also an assumption that the index case has not infected anyone else, given that the people contacted were just the individuals he knew he met,other passers-by that came across him could be infected and not screened.

You say it is not a death sentence, yes because it doesn't kill everyone but I can say that for any disease. With Covid-19 being a respiratory disease and the large amounts of air pollution happening daily in Nigeria we have a serious cause to be concerned. This is what I mean when I say 'don't loose guard', don't wait for 100k people to die before you do more that give someone a form to fill, check temperatures and ask 10 minutes of questions while still allowing people from infected countries troop in daily.


'So, the threats posed by the index case to Lagos and Nigeria has been eliminated and we have not gotten an outbreak as a result of the interventions that took place in Lagos”, the Commissioner added.'

Me looking through this thread and seeing people who actually believe this stuff.

olaric:
I understand your logic; but exactly what is wrong with calling the grace of God? I'm just being positive that's all.

Be positive but don't loose guard. This Covid-19 has not yet entered half time and Nigerian government is already claiming victory.

Chrisrare:
Nigerians and inferiority complex. why not go to another restaurant if they don't want you in theirs?

So they can carry their business to Africa, have Nigerian staff yet they will not serve someone food for no other reason than they are black. What are they looking for in Africa if they don't want to be around black people? Why are you acting like a lost Israelite accepting being treated like a stranger in your own land?

Wow actual good news from the government . They should take their racist asses elsewhere.

ogbonti:
it is not that we have super intelligence than the western world the truth is the west is being consumed by 2 factors especially in disease control

1. Citizens who are tone deaf and do not follow instructions. everyone wants to prove he or she is smart. imagine some people in America still complaining they want to go on a cruise at this critical time. no naija will think of that at this time

2. people in the western world lack proper hygiene. in naija, with all our water supply issues, people love to wash their hands before eating even if it’s rice, with spoon if you want to verify this go to any Mr Biggs or even road side mamma put you will see people washing their hands before they eat, in western world i have seen men leave toilets and just walk away when there is an abundant supply of water

spits

Your second point is a big lie. Have you not seen the dirty and flooded environment some people live in? Market women will be selling food on top of gutters, bus conductor will sneeze and hand change to someone while holding the rest of the money in his mouth. Even in the public toilets, which are rarely clean, people use their bare hand to wipe their anus with water there will often be no soap available. Even worse I've seen women rub their toto with just water and their bare hand in public and in their mind that is hygienic.

olaric:
The Coronavirus could be described as a humbling disease since it has so far brought the rich and the highly influencial to their knees. Even Donald Trump is forced to swallow his word and pride.

The poor and weak nations are only being spared maybe for now because of the grace of God. For Nigeria, it's not just about being clever alone, grace is also involved.

Good thing is that it started from a super power nation before moving to other places; so the world has learned from the experience of others.

Poor and weak nations also do not have the infrastructure to detect as many people with the disease as others. Before you start calling grace of God reason the thing first.

APCNig:
USA, Italy, China, Canada, UK, Germany should all swallow their non existing pride and come and beg Nigeria to teach them how to arrest and wipe out diseases. We wiped out Ebola and now Corona. This can't be a coincidence, this s result of proper planning and execution.

You are a fool if you think COVID-19 has been contained in Nigeria. If you don't test everyone then you can foolishly pat yourself on the back saying you did a good job while the disease continues to spread.

Tuberculosis Joshua has come again with another 'prediction', and people just swallow it like pounded yam.

What are eguns doing in ogun state?

They have lived there for the better part of 500 years. Since this is a 'Free' country they don't need an explanation, I might as well ask what Chukwudi is looking for in Taraba State.

Kokoebapluse:
I don't want to talk, but if egun don't be careful we will send them out of Nigeria. Egun re not Yoruba but yorubody they are from Benin Republic they settled down in Lagos, they are settle in Lagos they re not Nigerian let them be careful oo

Be careful how? What did they do that warrants their slaughter? This story isn't even about Lagos you are dragging Lagos into it. Some of the people you are calling foreigner their great grandfather has been living there before your dad came from Oyo State to settle in Lagos. You are really thinking like a violent herdsman right now.

Arrest soldier?
Soldier way be say him default mode na to break person head dey do am 247

To the person that will arrest a soldier in mufti on okada. If you're reading this, Rip in advance.

Too many mentions from all these internet jet lis
Let's settle this once and for all. Video yourself arresting a soldier and get a million. In fact video a policeman arresting a soldier and get the million. Ozuors. If soldier slap you you go know say police is your friend and SARS na your cousin

This is why Nigeria will continue to be backwards and other countries will continue to see us as a joke.

Only in a barbaric and backwards country will soldiers be expected to not only break the law but fight with the police and proudly get away with it.

We are so used to people, especially people in uniform, abusing power that it is just seen as normal.

When soldiers, who are supposed to be disciplined, can not obey simple instructions then the foundation of the institution is rotten.
