The Edo government, on Thursday in Benin, said it had completed a 30-bed facility, with 15 ventilators and other important equipment to treat COVID-19 patients in the state. The state Deputy Governor, Mr Philip Shaibu, who is the Chairman Sub-committee on COVID-19 pandemic, disclosed this when he led top government officials and health functionaries to inspect the facility. He expressed the state government’s readiness to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in the state. According to him, government was determined to ensuring that the people of the state were rescued from the pandemic, adding that the new 30-bed facility at the Stella Obasanjo Hospital was built within 12 days. “This is an additional facility built within 12 days due to the government’s commitment to ensuring that Edo people who get infected with the virus get the best treatment. “This is not a makeshift hospital, but a permanent one built for Edo people. “The facilities here will assist the patients to get well quick, as there are internet facilities and cable channels that will enable them get them be abreast of happenings around the world. “We have 15 ventilators in this centre. We have a 30-bed space, with one ventilator to two beds,” the deputy governor said. Also speaking, the state Commissioner for Health, Dr Patrick Okundia, said that the COVID-19 complex at Stella Obasanjo Hospital was a three-in-one facility. “The Stella Obasanjo Hospital is a 158-bed facility, which will serve as a holding centre, in addition to the newly-completed 30-bed facility. “We urge anyone in the state, who has any symptom relating to Coronavirus to visit the hospital to meet trained doctors and nurses there,” Okundia said. https://thenationonlineng.net/covid-19-edo-govt-complete-a-30-bed-facility-with-15-ventilators-2/ |

Mohammed Atiku-Abubakar, a son of Nigeria’s former vice-president, has continued to test positive for coronavirus four weeks after he was confirmed, PREMIUM TIMES has learnt. He remained isolated without symptoms, a development that has surprised medical experts. Mr Atiku-Abubakar, 31, tested positive for the virus on March 19. He was subsequently moved to the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, where most COVID-19 cases around the Nigerian capital are treated. Despite being placed on medication, including antiretroviral and immune-boosting vitamins, he has continued to test positive 28 days on, according to medical officials familiar with his case. “He tested positive again yesterday,” an official told PREMIUM TIMES. “We are doing all that is in our power to ensure his recovery, but he can only be released after he has been deemed completely recovered.” Another official told PREMIUM TIMES Mr Atiku-Abubakar’s “unique condition” has puzzled experts at the NCDC. “We have been saying that this is a unique condition, but we are confident he will recover soon,” the official added. Mr Atiku-Abubakar remained asymptomatic even one month after he caught the virus, PREMIUM TIMES learnt. Both officials spoke with PREMIUM TIMES under anonymity because the NCDC does not comment on individual cases unless otherwise determined by its top management. Chikwe Ihekweazu, head of NCDC, declined comments about Mr Atiku-Abubakar’s situation Thursday afternoon. Mr Atiku-Abubakar confirmed to PREMIUM TIMES that he was still at the isolation facility on Thursday afternoon, but declined further comments on his test results and treatment. Unwanted alliance As of April 15, Abuja has 58 cases out of 407 nationwide tally, NCDC reported. At least 128 people have recovered and been discharged from isolation centres across the country, according to NCDC. Two Nigerian governors, Bala Mohammed and Seyi Makinde, who tested positive well after Mr Atiku-Abubakar have since been certified recovered. Although the maximum period a person can carry coronavirus is still a subject of scientific research, some experts have said the virus can last for 37 days. But Mr Atiku-Abubakar, at 28 days, appeared to be amongst the longest carriers of the virus in Nigeria so far. Another similar case to Mr Atiku-Abubakar’s in Nigeria appeared to be Abba Kyari, President Muhammadu Buhari’s chief of staff, whose recovery has not been announced yet. His case was first made public on March 23. “No matter how you look at it, this is not a normal situation based on our observation in Nigeria,” Ifeoma Ezeonu, a Nigerian professor, told PREMIUM TIMES by telephone Thursday afternoon. Ms Ezeonu, a microbiologist and molecular geneticist at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu, said Mr Atiku-Abubakar’s case was looking like a prolonged carrier and should be closely monitored by the NCDC. “Ordinarily, he should have been cleared by now because of his young age and the period he has spent under treatment in isolation,” Ms Ezeonu said. “We know that the virus can be transient or chronic, and this case is looking like a classic case of a carrier.” “We just hope it is not an extended carriage as it is a very dangerous situation because it now looks like his system has come into an agreement with the virus,” she said. The professor, who emphasised that she has yet to hear of any case similar to Mr Atiku-Abubakar’s, said anyone still testing positive for COVID-19 would be able to infect others for as long as the virus has not completely cleared from the system. “If someone is asymptomatic as he has been, then you expect the immune system to clear the virus on time so the person can be negative again,” Ms Ezeonu said. “They should keep treating him there until he is able to clear the virus.” https://www.premiumtimesng.com/coronavirus/388299-coronavirus-four-weeks-after-atikus-son-yet-to-test-negative.html |
