You can clearly see he started the post with "Infact scratch this"

[color=royalblue]That was why i asked him to confirm

Because if i scratch that, then it obviously means that those 12 people didnt die, OR they are most likely to be killed by Lassa fever in the space of 10 hours

Abi?[/color]

Iamgrey5:
No

They have not increased the test. They are still doing the same thing they did before the lock down.

The head the NDDC himself said yesterday that they are still testing half their capacity.

In a press conference on Friday, a representative of NDDC said they do not need to do house to house testing as done in other countries that implemented lock down because according to him" they are not in the race to test the most patients"

All this despite the fact that evidence as shown that testing and isolating is the most important activity to curb the spread of the virus.

In other African countries that implemented a lock down, Ghana has tested close to 100,000 people, South Africa close to 150,000 people in the same period as Nigeria. None of this countries has half our population.

Nigeria have only tested 10,000. People.

[color=royalblue]Okay bro[/color]

People will die anyway. The flu has killed 62000 hunger kills many more. You can't cos of that ask people to stay home, you may reduce corona deaths or even suspend for a while ( as people with underlying illness will die of something else if not well taken care of) but hunger will kill not just the vulnerable but healthy too

[color=royalblue]You did not answer the question. Is 50k deaths negligible?

I am not disputing your hunger theory[/color]

Iamgrey5:
So if numbers are increasing what exactly does that mean?

Covid19 only takes 15 days incubation period to manifest itself, but in 27 days cases have moved from 50 to 600 and you claim the virus is not spreading

People are moving from Lagos, Abuja and Ogun state to Other states within that period to spread to other states and you claim it's not spreading.

Like you don't understand my earlier comment

Lock down is the simplest method of practicing social distancing by some countries with effective social security systems

Nigeria doesn't have the means or ability to implement a lock down that is effective so we need a new method of social distancing that is innovative

[color=royalblue]Is it that you are enjoying this back and forth quotes, or you are deliberately forcing yourself not to understand me?

Now we are currently on lockdown
Is Iamgrey infected? No
If the lockdown is lifted, is it possible for him to be infected? Obviously yes

The reason why you are seeing increased numbers is because THEY HAVE INCREASED THE NUMBER OF TESTS. THEY HAVE INCREASED THE NUMBER OF TESTS. THEY HAVE INCREASED THE NUMBER OF TESTS. THEY HAVE INCREASED THE NUMBER OF TESTS

If you conduct a test for 1 million people today, you'll see an increased number. It just shows you that these are the infected ones, not necessarily that they caught it today

But if you remove the lockdown, it becomes more difficult to find them, and the infected ones(who don,t know) will keep spreading it.

I hope your next quote wont let us dwell on this anymore[/color]

fortran12:
Lol. Where did u get your stats from? Also note hunger kills 25000 everyday and the world has not ever stopped to care that much. So why is corona given an elevated status?

[color=royalblue]Sorry, my bad. Wanted to type 50000

So are you saying 50k deaths is very negligible?[/color]

fortran12:
Yes. Most people get well from the virus. It's hype that is making it seem seem huge. Am sure you saw the post on naira land saying some people can have it and won't know.

[color=royalblue]So, i guess the 80,000 deaths in the USA should be insignificant then.

Or what do you think?[/color]

Iamgrey5:
Nah

You the one that doesn't understand the purpose of a lock down, sorry to say.

Lock down is ensure that community spreading is limited, hence countries with a plan to implement the lock down have succeeded in limiting the spread..

However, in Nigeria the government had no plan and tested very little, hence the cases couti

in addition, they also provided very little social safety net because they have no idea or resources to implement social security that would

[color=royalblue]Its like i used too much vocabulary

The purpose of the lockdown is to reduce the spread, while they fish out those infected, and they will achieve that through testing

Because the numbers are increasing doesn't mean its spreading. It means that they are increasing the number of tests done.


Like i said, let them remove it. The confirmed cases will probably drop to 50 before Friday, since the lockdown is increasing it[/color]

COPIED FROM FACEBOOK:
It's a lock down something lets rack our brains a little

A rich noble man in Nigeria died.. He was half Indian and half Edo...He was so selfless and stinkingly wealthy, he died 01/10/1992. He had just one beautiful wife from Imo State, A spoilt son, One pretty house-maid, A loyal gate-man and a good driver.

Police men went to the house and interrogated them one after another.

Wife -: I left my hubby peacefully at home during breakfast oooo and while I was partying with my friends since it was our annual meeting hang out, the maid called me that oga was in his own pool of blood lifeless then I came home.

Maid -: Before madam comot for house, she send me go market to buy foodstuffs. As I come back na him I see oga body for sitting room, oga don die..

spoilt son-: I was out with my friends in the next hood playing PS4 when my phone rang that my dad was dead.. I rushed home and met his body

Driver-: I am so confused, early this morning oga sent me to the bank to withdraw some cash and I was shocked to have returned and met his lifeless body. OMG!!!

Gateman -: I be dey sleep for my gateman house as I work over night then for my sleep I hear the housemaid shout. Na him I wake up, I come run enter main house see say my oga body dey for ground with blood..

The police men laughed and arrested the murderer.

Question ? Who killed oga and prove it?

[color=royalblue]The driver killed the man

October 1 is a public holiday. So which bank him go withdraw? [/color]

theGigolo:
Guy see I like your analytical reasoning but I think it's not for everyone, your answer was so detailed that I had to read all the threads to read up on your follow up answers. Just ignore this people.

As at April 1st we had less than 200 cases
As at April 26th we have over 1000 cases

Make we dey see as e go first.

[color=royalblue]Sincerely, i do not wish people to die of hunger or anything.

Nigeria has a poor healthcare system. We are not even running enough tests everyday. A city as big as Kano has a 600 bed isolation center. If this virus spreads, its still the poor that will suffer it. Is it a man living in a one room apartment that will self-isolate?

If they lift it? No wahala. Until one loses his relative to this nonsense, we may not know how it feels[/color]

Iamgrey5:
Simple

1)New market day schedule for marketers

The leaders of the market would have to draw up a schedule that would ensure people come to markets to sell on different days of the week.

2) Members of task force would ensure people use mask by moving around those areas with loud speakers and providing face mask

3) Mobile sample collection centers would be set up to collect samples of people for testing within the market.

Innovation is needed in this situation

We can't wait till a vaccine is found till we open up our economy. We have closed our economy for a month and the cases are still going up.

What makes you think that by a months time that the cases would have reduced?

[color=royalblue]You obviously don't understand the essence of the lockdown.

The lockdown is to reduce the spread and discover the infected ones. The reason you have an increased number is because they have increased testing. When the lockdown started, only Lagos and Abuja was testing. Today, more than 10 states are testing

If you run 50,000 tests this evening, you'll definately see over 2000 that are infected.
Does it mean the number is increasing? No

It means you just discovered potential carriers. But then, lets remove the lockdown. and see the numbers reduce drastically(according to you)[/color]

fortran12:
So you rather healthy people die cos of lock down from a virus that kills only the old and vulnerable.

[color=royalblue]Really?[/color]

Mizwisdom:
You took over that first page with your argument. Why didn't you just make your point and leave? For the first time I keep hearing gun shot every single night because people are robbing. Do you think this is a joke? people are now living in fear because we don't know what will happen and all you're thinking about is dead bodies.

[color=royalblue]So, you have no issues with those calling me names. But my replies makes me the nuisance, and i should be the one to shut up?

Noted ma[/color]

Mizwisdom:
You're becoming a nuisance. People are not sleeping at night again and you're still supporting stupid lockdown

Mizwisdom:
I'm sure you don't live in a state where full lockdown is being enforced. Your pessimism stinks like rotten egg

[color=royalblue]I am a nuisance because i shared my opinion on a particular topic?[/color]

hardeycute:
I know you to be more objective than this, did you failed to touch on the number of tests that has been carried out since the lockdown started? If the Government can only do a little over 10,000 tests after 4 weeks of lockdown with no sustainable palliatives going round the whole country, what do you say to that?

The main objective of lockdown is to ramp up the numbers of tests being conducted but that is not the case here. We have many asymptotic people who have been denied testing

[color=royalblue]So in your opinion, we should open everywhere and let everybody infect everybody, since the tests done are Still low?

If the government won't protect you, won't you protect yourself?[/color]

Carshopper:
Not this isnt ebola whereby its transmission is via body sweat.

This virus transmits via sneezing, coughing etc... this is the best time to be your brothers keeper ... look out for the next person while looking out for yourself.

Will you go out today witout a face mask? In my area ogudu, the use of face mask is increasing

[color=royalblue]We are still saying the same thing

Or people won't sneeze inside the crowd. We can't be too careful, that's why countries advocated for a lockdown

The people dying in the abroad still used nose mask, no?[/color]

https://www.nairaland.com/5817434/covid-19-lockdown-no-lockdown-which

Who tell izzou to go shuck mouth for this thread now, uber thread no reach you? You come say na where over 100k viewers dey with majority of them vexing about the lockdown na him u won go preach to them abi? Ok sabi u don receive bashing like d way keke napep take dey bash Corolla front right center.

Sexylasie and co that support extension of the lockdown please go and rescue you bf guys won kill am ooo.

[color=royalblue]The people who died in Spain and Italy probably didn't use hand sanitizers, nose masks and hand gloves

I'll still stand that the lockdown should be kept. It's my opinion. Whosoever wants to faint because of it should do so ASAP.

Let them lift the lockdown so we all can go and eat. That's all that matters for now[/color]

Carshopper:
The curve can't be flatten (hard truth to swallow)- so many indices plays against it. Data which is critical is truly missing.

Testing is in question, health care is non existent.

Na to manage the situation while seeing people turn to statistics. (Hard truth to accept)


Palliatives can not be assured cuz it will be based on the most hit age bracket. Or it can not be sustained because for how long shall palliatives run.

Continual lockdown - you have to fight or mitigate between where the next uprising will come from, what will increase the stress on d non-existing health-care (if na hunger or the virus). Production and business economics failing, paying for infrastructure and it is not been productive.

Relaxed lockdown people go about with the covid19 preventive protocols, more educative awareness, enlightenment and enforcing strict rules within d population.

Locked or relaxed- numbers will increase

[color=royalblue]How can social distancing be enforced in Lawanson market, Yaba, Idumota, Balogun or the likes?

How can we observe Social distancing in Danfos or motorbikes?

Even banks will first jampack people outside before they allow them to go in, in twos?

Let them just remove it. Anyhow it eventually ends up is our fate. But saying enlightenment and enforcement? We both know that's not happen

Just read through the comments of supposed "enlightened" Nigerians with the internet. Then imagine how an uneducated Nigerian would behave[/color]

[color=royalblue]You said this[/color]

Swissh:


Everything is in order for Ganduje 15billion loan from federal government to arrive now. Nigeria politicians are very smart

[color=royalblue]And then you now said this[/color]

Swissh:
Infact scratch this Godx. Ganduje actually came out and said the rumours of Kano mass death relating to coronavirus are all lies.

[color=royalblue]I'm sorry, but which side are you on?

-That the Covid-19 deaths is a lie and should be dismissed, or that

-Ganduje arraigned 12 prominent Kano indigenes to fake their death within the space of 10 hours?[/color]

pope191:
reaching out to past riders its a good thing, but right I think there's uncertainty everywhere, you don't even know what your past riders r going thro and my people can get easily irritated "ma wo bobo/baba taxify driver yi, you think you r the only one that need money". But no wrong in trying, it is what it is.

But I truly have this feelings it can't b bad that one won't stay afloat, little pacakge to keep the body and soul will b available after the lockdown

[color=royalblue]You can just send texts instead of calls. Package am well

Goodday ma
It's me Pope191, an Uber driver that dropped you sometime ago
I'm sending this in case you need a driver that could move you around in this pandemic. My car is equipped with the necessary kits like gloves, sanitizers and masks. It would be safe to stick with an assured mode of transport, especially now. And do not worry about the fares. It's much more affordable than you can imagine
This is my number, incase you decide to use my services

Thank you

Something like this sha [/color]

pope191:
Its a 2 way things, you r right about ppl not wanting to come out, but if u know ur customers very well, u will somehow get by and beside I'm thinking ppl will b scared of public transport in as much as there is no money in circulation, but safety is paramount. Sighting myself as example, I'm yet to take bike since the lockdown, if I'm not driving or in a private car, then trekking is d surest mode to my destination.

[color=royalblue]I was thinking about that too

Maybe it's time to reach out to your prospective past riders

Equip your car with hand sanitizers, disposable gloves and face masks

Then tell them you can move them around at reasonable fares, in a hygienic car , instead of them having to jump into different buses and cars

A little packaging should keep the brothers afloat in these trying times [/color]

[color=royalblue]Oga Klopp, that boy cost oh

Just leave am for Madrid [/color]

packagerz:
See after a year rott or boelbull loose the memory slowly.. He will want to take over from you and one day he will attack the owner. The best thing is to sell it. U can't keep him around new baby...


See any vet for confirmation

[color=royalblue]Okay[/color]

Olachase:
go and sit down ur first comment describe who u are, maybe this lockdown is given u some income like one woman in my street cus she's making a lot from this lock down she pray the lock down should never come to an end. and people like u can't offer anything to those who need labbish.

[color=royalblue]Okay[/color]

Olachase:

[color=royalblue]Am I advising you? Or do you have a problem with comprehension?

The lockdown would be lifted tomorrow. You definitely have a banquet in your house on Tuesday

Just hold on small. Monday don reach already[/color]

[color=royalblue]Are you a Christian? [/color]

babyfaceafrica:
Super story... Deaths dey Kano... Are they not still doing normal.. Una go dey use death scare us as if no be all of us go die.. Abegii.. A coward die many times..

[color=royalblue]Okay[/color]

nitigriti:
Good morning everybody and happy Sunday.

So, I'm thinking.

Since this Covid-19 pandemic started in December last year, infection and mortality rates in the 0 - 20 years population segment is less than 0.5% (my assumption, based on reporting in the US, UK, Spain, France, China); maybe 0% sef .

Is there something science can learn from this population segment? For example, do this population segment have the so-called "herd immunity?"

Can someone shed light on this?

[color=royalblue] Obviously

I thought about that too. I'll be back to explain my stand.[/color]

babyfaceafrica:
Then let us be the judge.. Instead of been forced

[color=royalblue]Yeah

God be with us all[/color]

babyfaceafrica:
See yah mouth like one month?... Na you go feed people.. I have been doing vigilante over 12 days now due to miscreants.. Is that my work?.. A nation that refuses to provide adequate security, food and shelter should be ashamed... Everything about Naija is copy copy.. And it is this same negligence from them that started this... Instead of closing the airports early they allowed bubu daughter and atiku son to come and infect us... Yeyenatu!!

[color=royalblue]If you start hearing deaths everywhere (God forbid), I can confidently tell you that you won't have the guts to come outside to look for what to feed yourself[/color]

Mynd44:
A few hundred Nigerians who travelled in from abroad refused to self-isolate for 14 days and brought this on us. Do you really believe 200 million Nigerians will use face masks, wash hands and practice social distancing?

You dnt even have to reply, just ask yourself.

[color=royalblue]Toor

Let it not look like I'm pessimistic.

The same Nigerians screaming for the removal of the lockdown will enforce it on themselves when shiit hits the fan[/color]
