Funny enough, in Nigeria testing positive is a death sentence. Those under self-isolation should observe the duration out.

Why do you say such an insane thing?

yanabasee:
Which is why I argued with a friend earlier, that the virus is more than what is reported. The outbreak will be massive when people start dropping dead on the street...

The Nigerian government isn't doing enough to see to the well-being of its citizens..

The issue is naija is just following western nation protocols instead of looking into local solutions. See how nafdac just approved malaria drug meanwhile FDA is still testing. All ontop trump talk. Naijas rushed go buy meds. Those meds can kill you easily. Even in ohio doctors are stockpiling every drug in trial for their family and friends that the pharmaceutical board had to step in and require a diagnosing before filling.
Humans are fucking selfish
They will hoard while another starves
Don't take it as a bad sign. America is that rich friend who doesnt like us but we wsnt to please so bad.
It is possible they found out while snooping that african doctors were diagnosings COVID as malaria and prescribing thr drug and people were getting better but will never ever give us credit as to why the lower regions have a lower rate than places they used to call the middle east until this virus happenef. Now egypt and Morocco are all of q sudden Africa.

You people keep shouting "Close the airports and the borders".

I hope you know that your useless shithole country does not manufacture anything!

Im disappointed. User name does not check out. Weak ass flacid response

Yenefer:
Ridiculous! Why you shouldn’t trust the WHO and their advice, same with the NCDC. The same officials from the NCDC serve with the WHO, it’s a revolving door of bureaucratic incompetence. Typical: how do we know anyone is telling the truth? Keep in mind that Hitler and every other dictator arose to power on the coat tails of chaos and crisis. Who is to say one side or another will not use a severe epidemic to these ends down to individual governors and government officials? "Never let a good crisis go to waste" something is up.
This is the kind of thing that inspired Charles Darwin to embrace the theory of Natural Selection. If you want to weed out your garden, just put your hands in your pockets and watch.

The press has blown this out of proportion to create panic! When this is over and done with, Mark my words, the flu season of 2019 -2020 will look much worse!

Just like every other flu we have known throughout the history of mankind. Should you not shake hands? Of course, Should you wash your hands regularly? Always. Should you stay home if you are sick? Certainly.

Should we destroy the economy, shutter businesses, put a match to the world's wealth? Months of quarantine will do this and I don't think so.

Some People are easily manipulated! Once you give up your Rights and Civil Liberties for safety sake , you have given up all your freedom! The Government owns you. This is not what our ancestors fought and died for.

You are are definitely a russian troll or fbi. Put a match to the world's wealth. Where is thw wealth going to? Capitalism fry your brain. We choose to stay alive.

are you a Muslim?

Doesn't matter what i am honestly. No i am not a muslim.

West2019:

Okay. No vex. Thanks for clarifying. No need to preach to me. Keep that one to yourself.

babyfaceafrica:
it may not be covid that killed him?

Maybe you are right. But this covid come be like aids. Anything that kills the person after infection/full blown is refered to as x related to Aids..

West2019:
76 yrs on earth u stil dey complain abi pray let ur fada mk heaven pls

You talk without sense. See below. I pray neither you or your loved ones experience such.

“I’m feeling about as sick as I’ve been,” the Utah Democrat said during a CNN interview on Friday. “I got really labored breathing. I feel like I have a belt around my chest, really tight. When I cough, my muscles are so sore so I just feel pain every time I cough, which is frequently. I feel short of breath, and I have a fever of about 102. So, it’s pretty bad.”

helinues:
Even without contacting the virus, @ 76 ?

Media sensational news about the Coronavirus is worsening the situations.

I stopped paying for cables since last weekend. I can't come and be paying for panics most especially when there are no sporting activities

So die at 76 or before if you want. Coro is not a good wsy to go. Struggling yo breathe and having liquid in your lungs is not a good way to go. Have some compassion.

Zooposki:
You are correct. It will be difficult to spread in Nigeria and that is because the conditions to get it are simply not in Sub Saharan Africa.

It is not because of the temperature or immune system or whatever everyone is saying. Don’t ask me for the reason. No one will believe me if I say. I believe a few other people might know why. Press like if you know.

I am listening. Tell me

JaruJaru890:
what's the correlation btw a stone and God?

Ekiti ppl call it wonderful stone. (Not a demonic yoruba name)

Weird ekiti people had an English name for this stone "wonderful stone" that predates europeqn arrival. And later some people will say there is no God.

Simplyleo:
It's just yesterday I was made to understand this virus didn't occur naturally, but a failure of laboratory activity in China.

If that is the case, I still dont understand why the global economic migrants remained quiet about the failure of an almighty China, rather, their energies are directed to Buhari for several reasons on same virus.

Why some people so hit by complex that they can even insult the hell outta their parents because of oyibo?


Fixed

I honestly do not see china has being the one to create this virus.
China has accusdd thr u.s milittary of releasing the virus in october 2019 at an exercise in china.
We will never know the truth only propaganda.
Xhina also accusdd the u.s of making the virus as they are coming up with a vaccine too soon.
Whoever createf the virus( assuming it was bio egineered) dif a good job to hide amongst the victims.

chloedogie:
Which head of states or president have you heard died of coronavirus? And do you know how many citizens have died globally? Buhari that didnt die of poisoning. If he is hit with coronavirus he will be treated with your tax money if you pay tax but if you are hit with coronavirus you will be borrowing money to treat yourself. You better take care if yourself and leave Buhari out of this. The whole federal govt has failed and you need to protect yourself and be strong in this trying time.

Which tax money? 90 prrcent of rev comes from oil. Stop speakinh like a westerner abeg.

What good is world class service witthoutv a respisrator he will most likely die. You think bubu no get preexisting condition? Or thwy will pump thr liquid out od his lungs 2 times a day. It will have tp be in nigeria. I dont know how many respirators we have but u.s has less than 100k. You think people are dying in all these countries for lack of good service? Na equipment no de. An older womqn died on a floor of a hospital not a few days ago in the u.s. the issue is no one knows wjo will go. Even if you survive lung capacity seems to diminish to about 60%. It is with time to see if it is temporary. Some people with cancer have survived while seemingly health folk die. The data for each region is looking a little different

QuickStandard:

At a time when all countries are shorting their borders, The judiciary has refused to short theirs.
When it's about laws that will favor the people they won't act.
But when it's against the masses, they will suddenly remember their stupid laws.

However, I doubt that this decision is made by the judiciary, probably it's oga from above that authorized them to do so

SMH.
Spits

Shut.
Short is people who are not tall.

ivolt:
I am not sure if you are trying to deceive people or you are just ignorant about drug and diseases.

NAFDAC does not do trials.
Trump is wrong, this is a matter of life and death and not a liberal/conservative/christian group think.

Trump is not your savior!
The same Trump who is saving you wanted to buy a German developed vaccine strictly for Americans.
He didn't remember to send one your way.

Capitalists are already making money from chloroquine from the gullible.

Tell them o. The way nigerians think americans are gods ehn. This same chloroquine that kills even in small dosages. They just read headlines and start shoutinh america. They have no clue what life is like for most. Not even 2 weeks they lost their job and thry will be kickef out if thry cant pay rent come april. Only folk who havr access yo monry can buy. Plrnty people livr paychrck to paychrck. America you can go into negativr so quickly and lose evrrything. See that 1k usd thry promised? To collect ehn, you go prove wire. Until you have been there and seen money doesnt grow on trees..

fairfora:
I never liked this guy's style before but I think my opinion is changing the way he's been up and doingn on the Coronavirus issue. People should come first in every thing government does because they're not governing animals.

My concern still goes to the way president Buhari is handling the matter. He didn't even come to the media except once. He keeps speaking through garba shehu and oshiomohle. Who knows if garba shehu was the one who sent himself and baba didn't seem to be aware if it. World presidents allay fears by coming on air to address their people on a regular basis . This isn't good enough as a leader.

You can agree with him on this issue and still noy like him. Especially if he called his state a city

Lol. Nokia small phone don get internet? Lagos civil servant sef is not ewuipped. Or hsve the knowhow to work from home.

Dadaboy:
Man I cannot believe you still have to write long essays and not understand what i mean or how you still arrived at saying shortage of test kits as if it is different from what i wrote earlier. I am telling you many people have not been tested and they are currently carrying this virus. What is so difficult to understand there

Did you miss where she says exactly that she does not believe people are out there with COVID?. You just want to be right abd beat me over the head with it. Pls have a good rest of your day kind sir.

Dadaboy:
Alot of people have contacted this virus already but have not started showing symptoms.. in few weeks you will understand

Clearly you know more than WHO.. i am not clairvoyant like you and cant predict the future. But those cases just did not exist in the past. Evwn tje way nigeria is handling it seems suspicious and like a money grab. But they do not understand how to monetize it. But it is a disease that can easily get out of hand. I wait to see what you stand to gain by being right, other than dying that is. Enjoy.



“About 10 days ago we had about five countries with the virus,” said the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) Africa chief, Dr Matshidiso Moeti.

Now, 35 of Africa’s 54 countries have cases, with the total close to 650. It is an “extremely rapid evolution”, she said.


In fact, the first sub-Saharan Africa case was announced on February 28.

She said she did not believe that large numbers of infected people are going undetected in Africa. However, she did acknowledge a challenge in the shortage of testing kits.

Dadaboy:
I hope you can see your ignorance now.. when i mentioned this virus might be more than have accounted for, you were writing nonsense.

How so? Pls elaborate. The katsina person tested negative. The american purported to have died in ekiti tested negative. All the cases are brought by plane. And 1 reportedly via land border. So pls explain my ignorance.

Just pay for nairaland ad. No need to come de fo product placement here

flamingREED:
Countries that are neighbours to Italy are not that much affected.
Why should I be afraid in Sub-Saharan Africa where it's not killed anyone yet?
I'm not that unintelligent, dear boy.

Which neighboring country has it not affected? Go look map well please o.. for every 1 person known postive there are maybe hundreds unrecorded.
It has killed people. We just do not track and report well.
A prominent person just died in Burkina Faso. If it were you or I it would be unremarkable and unrecorded.

A305:
This pandemic virus just exposes the fact that;

God is a p ussy, He isn't in control or he doesn't exist! I'm not insinuating he(God or other religion god) heal the world, NO! but at least, it would be fair to let their followers NOT be magically infected.

This pandemic also shows that health care is the weakness of the Almighty America, they divert more funds to military rather than health care so if any country wants to falter America as a country, Inflict her citizens.

You are not helping. Aside from the rudeness of your comment. There are people who do believe they are favored by God and csnt be infected. Yiur comment does nothing but stir up theur desire to prove you wrong and will ignore all safety protocols. Just remember you live in the same vicinity with these peoplr. Now is not the time to start fight. Na beg we de beg them. No let the night vigils start on top your comment pls.

flamingREED:
You really think 'others' are that dumb to require you to speak on their behalf?

Wheb someone in your hoysehold is eating bugs and you say nothing. Come night time na all of you no go sleep.
This is a community issue. Look at italy were they bury people without any family present and are so overwhelmed with funerals that bodies are waiting to be buried.
You claim you care about the sanctity of life but you are fake. You just want to continue your routine without regard for the safety or lives of others.

West coasr of where? Are these domestic flights only?

IamPatriotic:
I think schools shouldn't be the first place to be shut down, children are at lesser risk than adults, so why closing schools and not Government Houses?

Reports from italy and france say different. Young people are in the ICU too. Plus it is about no spreading it. Children are germy little diseases vectors who will catch it at school and take it home to grandma who may not survive. This is a community issue. Grandma will take it to the market...do you see where this is going?

If only they had stopped the flights and call buhari out for not doing so. This virus seems to be coming for people in their age bracket. So why they acted all non-chalant is beyond me

What is "local nigerian" food? And what should they be eating?
They are eating food. Or you can say okele sef. Swallow if you wan anglicize am.

PARACLETOS:
Why is it a problem in Nigeria? What about other countries that regulates it? Your view or assertion doesn't apply in my opinion.

Thats rubbish. And stop invoking other countries. Yoy guys are happy to do ao until it is about God and homosexuality you remember you are africans.
But since you want to go there:
In th us if the cable or cell company cuts yoy off for non paymebt. Yoy take 40 days to pay and reconbect, yoy still owe for that 1 month they disconnected and u couldnt use it.
Doed that seem fair or makr sense to you?

Lets stop with other countries do so and so.
