How many people have they tested? Up to 15000?

What is responsible for the delay in validating rapid test test kits?

At this rate I doubt if we can hit 100000 tests within 2 months.

WHO seems to be confused

No source?

It is well... What is your opinion on the lockdown?.. Feasible in a nation like ours?

Lockdown is good but the main issue is that we havent been able to do enough testing to catch up with the spread. Within one month of lockdown we have not done up to 15000 tests. We have only 15 testing centers, with 3 in Lagos and I am not sure if we have been able to validate rapid test kits. Contact tracing was even very poor.

Lockdown is not sustainable as we have a very insincere government. More people will lose their jobs and it will have a far-reaching negative effect on our oil-based economy.

They should just increase the number of test centers. It's now a case of community spread.

kollysnut:
yes sir.....

Who validated it abeg?

Hope they are ready to ramp-up testing in their respective states. We are lagging behind in testing and what we have now is community spread.

Has this been validated in Nigeria yet?

These new copies begin to attack other cells and multiply and this makes it difficult to destroy them totally even when a drug is developed.


Are u saying even a cure drug won't work?

Antiviral drugs are usually developed to reduce the viral load (quantity of viral particles in a given volume of body fluid). They actually work but the patient must be on them as prescribed by the physician.

If alcohol cannot kill it when it reaches the longs... Why can heat kill it?.. Like it is been pandled around in some medical literature even if it reaches the lungs, if you drink hot water.. It can kill the virus... Also are you of the opinion that once it reaches the lungs.. It becomes indestructable?.. Thanks

Actually, there is a lot of false information being peddled about this period. One challenge is that this pandemic is new to scientists and it is still evolving.
Even if it has been peddled in literature, it has not really been proven that hot water kills it. Hot water in the lungs is not even good because the that is not where it is meant to be.The lung is a respiratory organ and not an organ for taking in water.
About the virus being indestructible in the lungs, there is an issue with viruses. When they get to the lungs, they take over the cells and begin to make copies of themselves. These new copies begin to attack other cells and multiply and this makes it difficult to destroy them totally even when a drug is developed.

Is Ganduje now NCDC?

By the time it gets to the lungs it has already entered the cell after binding to its receptor on the cell (angiotensin converting enzyme) and started the process of replicating itself. At this point it is active and alcohol cannot have any effect. On external skin and metal surfaces, it is vulnerable to heat and chemicals like alcohol that can melt/dissolve its membrane (covering) and render it noninfectious.

This government is the real definition of scam. If you are looking for the devil look no further; he is in the Lying Progressives Congress.

Good

I thought they said their test kits finished. These people and lies are like 5 and 6

Social distancing is dead and buried in Nigeria.

Where in Lagos?

Who cares?

This one is even better than Kano that lied to us that they halted testing because of unavailability of test kits.

Like Femi Adesina, Like Lai Mohammed

Lying Progressives Congress.

What does he know that he's looking at?

Femi is good story teller but a bad liar. Look at the nonsense he wrote up there to insult our sensibilities.

Who does not know about the brazen fraud, deception and corruption that has bedevilled this government? He is not even ashamed to continue his lies and hypocrisy by quoting from the Bible.

Now that President Abba Kyari is late I would like to see how they hatch their evil plans for 2023.

Well, posterity will judge him for being part of this fraudulent regime that has perpertrated one of the biggest scams in the history of this country.

6K recording?

This phone is a beast among beasts.

1k loading. Most likely about 10k tests done. We need to validate rapid testing kits as soon as possible to catch up with the spread and isolate more of the infected from the general population.

Will hit 1k today.

Nigerian government is just playing kalo kalo with the lives of the citizens.

Tufiakwa!!!


God forbid!

These men are the ones bringing troubles to the home and still want their wives to accept and be cool with their dirty lifestyle,most divorce cases are the fault of the men.Men of God are still better,no true man of God will indulge in such act.A man of God doesn't necessarily mean to be a pastor,the fear of God should be truly from our hearts and anyone blessed with such is a man of God

True, very true.
