Health › Postulates From The Covid 19 'epidemic In Nigeria by olaboy33(op): 9:42am On Apr 11, 2020
Over the last couple of weeks, Nigeria has experienced it's first case of corona virus in Nigeria and has been battling it's severity since then.

Through this period, Nigeria can be said to be slowing winning the war against the epidemic (yes, I call it epidemic because what we are experiencing here in Nigeria and probably Africa in terms of the virus is quite different from what other parts of the world is experiencing).

Looking at stories we've read and seen around the world on this virus, the future really looked bleak for Nigeria considering our healthcare system and level of preparedness after we recorded the first case on the 27th of February 2020. Fortunately for the country, the positive or not so bad out turn of events after almost 6weeks of the first case have left many doubtful on the claim that the corona virus is active in Nigeria.

This led to my study of the trend in Nigeria and coming up with the following postulates of which I believe one out of these postulates must be true.

*Note:* These are mere postulates with no scientific backup and were only derived from the study of the behavioral trend of the virus in Nigeria.


1. A less aggressive

strain of the virus is present Nigeria:


Looking at the very low and almost non-existent complexities (like severe breathing difficulties) and the death rate from the cases recorded in Nigeria as compared to other parts of the world. One can be made to believe we have a less viral strain in the country.

According to Reuters { https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKBN20R07Z }

[/b]" The preliminary study found that a more aggressive strain of the new coronavirus associated with the outbreak in Wuhan accounted for about 70% of analyzed cases, while 30% were linked to a less aggressive type.
The prevalence of the more aggressive virus type decreased after early January 2020, they said. "


From this report, there is a possibility that the minimal complication and low mortality rate of the virus in Nigeria is as a result of the presence of a less aggressive strain. This can explain why we haven't seen people dying on the streets or at home at an abnormal rate.


However, this postulation might not be totally acceptable simply because not only Nigeria but Africa in general has minimal complications from the virus also.

Could it be possible that only the less aggressive strain is finding its way to Africa?


2. The weather condition of Africa is responsible for the minimal complications

The limitation of postulation 1 above gives rise to postulation 2.

According to the Q & A on corona viruses by WHO, {https://www.who.int/news-room/q-a-detail/q-a-coronaviruses}

" Studies suggest that coronaviruses (including preliminary information on the COVID-19 virus) may persist on surfaces for a few hours or up to several days. This may vary under different conditions (e.g. type of surface, temperature or humidity of the environment)."

This shows that the hot temperature in Africa might lessen the time the virus persist on surfaces and in turn lead to lesser transmission of the virus. This can explain why Nigeria and Africa in general have recorded few cases of the virus and low mortality rate.

3. Strong immune system of blacks?

This is a less unlikely postulate but considering how Africans have normalised malaria and other sickness which might be fatal to the whites, one might take this on a second thought.

However, the limitation of this is that African migrants abroad are not spared in the fatality of this virus over there and there is also a claim that African - Americans constitute 70% of corona virus death in the US according to BBC (https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-us-canada-52194018)

This can only mean the strong immune system of the black race might not be a stumbling block to the novel Covid-19.
This gives more credence to 1 and 2 above.


Italy recorded it's first case of Covid 19 on January 31st, one month after she recorded about 8000 deaths and 2 months after about 18,000 deaths.

US also recorded it's first case on January 15th and 2 months after, the death rate is between 16,000 to 18,000 though many deaths are said to not be reported.

Nigeria on the hand recorded it's first case on February 27 and almost a month and half after, there are lesser than 10 deaths. Readers would agree with me that these records doesn't tally and something must be responsible.

It is definitely not government efforts in curtailing it or good health care system or prayers of our clerics but a natural event which might be due to one of the the 3 postulates above.

The high recovery rate is also a very positive indication as about 18% of registered cases have recovered fully and tested negative twice

I urge the NCDC and Lagos State governmebt to publicly announce it's treatment procedure for the recovered patient so others can follow.
It's obvious we don't have a much similar problem as the outside world, our method of approach in curtailing the problem should not also be exactly similar.

I'll advise the government to again publicly announce it's treatment procedure which seems to be working fine ( if what they have been feeding us is true) so others can follow at home as there are many roaming the streets who have the virus but are asymptomatic and many never get tested and as such act as carriers of the virus.

This may not be too safe medically but it will be a good approach.

In conclusion, the total lockdown of the top states in the country has not been effective enough as it was not and can not be fully enforced and in reality palliative measures won't get round especially to those that need it.
Therefore, in addition of publicly announcing treatment procedure, the lockdown should be called off after one week extension and stringent policies should be put in place to ensure everyone complies with preventive measures.

Really? A good warrior? Did he actually fire a shot at Abacha and missed.


A good warrior should never be caught on tape planning coup. Only sisi generals get caught that cheap and they redeem themselves by facing the music instead of kneeling and begging like a freaking woman.
Even though the coup allegation was shady, how many generals were able to think of a coup against the dreaded abacus?.

Nigerian elites in their usual overbearing and greater than all attitude will ignore all safety measure and think their olumba olumba would safe them. Unfortunately for them, this virus is made in China and is immune to all African Shields.

Unfortunately for us, they are putting our lives in danger with their unwiseness.

This is not a wise decision to me.

They corps members have been in camp close to two weeks now before the third corona case was detected in Lagos.

They are safer in camp than being outside for now when authorities are still trying to trace those who made contacts with the lady who tested positive.

This is very unnecessary and would cause avoidable panic.

Literature › Re: 5 Books To Sharpen Your Writing Skill In 2020 by olaboy33(m): 6:55pm On Mar 13, 2020
tripua:
These five books will challenge every typically wrong notion you have about writing but most importantly, your writing skills will be greatly enhanced. If your goal is to write better content more regularly, then you should read these 5 books.

1. EVERYBODY WRITES
Call this book an encyclopedia of writing and you won’t be wrong. With 74 chapters on almost everything on writing, this book authored by Ann Handley Wiley teaches on how to create ‘ridiculously good content.’ Ann proved in this book that writing is a habit and not an art. She also teaches on how best to swap position with your reader. How do you get easier with the INK? By thINKing. These and more are what to expect from everybody writes.

2. STEIN ON WRITING
Can you beat this? Differentiating between nonfiction illustration and fiction illustration. Take this examples:
Illustration 1: New York City has more than 1,400 homeless people.
Illustration 2: The man who has laid claim to bench on the corner of 88th Street and Park Avenue is one of New York City’s 1,400 homeless people. This book will teach you how to evoke sensation in the reader. For example, you are not just to tell that it is raining but make your readers feel like they are being drenched inside the rain.
The book main subjects covered such as the essentials of writing, the craft of fiction, the subject of interest to all writers, the application of fictional techniques for the enhancement of nonfictions, literary values for both fiction and nonfictions. By the way, Stein is an accomplished writer, a master editor of some of the most successful writers.

3. THE SENSE OF STYLE
In this Steven Pinker’s all-time classic, you will equipped with the thinking person’s guide to writing in the 21st century. Published by Penguin Books with first publication in 2014, the book has 6 chapters including Good writing, a window into the world and the curse of knowledge. Steven Pinker already has ten other books on writing improvement. Warning: this book is highly witty and comprehensive. It is about 4,620 pages. Divide that figure by ten that’s actually the number of pages, so you need not panic.

4. YOU ARE A WRITER
In a most engaging style of writing, Jeff Goins made it look like you are on a one-on-one coaching session with him. Leaving no stone unturned, the author bared it all on how you can just write. How you can fall back in love with the writing craft, build a platform and focus more on what you were made to do which is to write. With great content such as writers are born, not made; the truth about writing, building a platform, establishing a brand, getting started among others.
By the way, Jeff is a writer, speaker, and communicator. He believes in the power of words to change the world. He is a regular to Zen Habits voted by TIME magazines as one of the top 50 websites of 2008

5. COMMUNICATION SKILLS TRAINING
Communication skills training is a practical guide to improving your social intelligence, presentation, persuasion and even public speaking is a part of a series on positive psychology coaching. Authored by Ian Tuhovsky who blogs via www.mindfulnessforsuccess.com. About 195 pages, the book is in two parts;
Part I: The right attitude and a little bit about emotions and part II is about communication skills including the most basic and conversational fixes, phrases to purge your Dictionary and what to substitute them with.

How can you ask me to forget the Bible, is it not purpose to be our christian standard? Kathrin kurhman, smith Smith Wiggleswoth, Benni Hinn, Reinhard Bonnke are some of white ministers of God that perform miracles in their lifetime. I don't nothing i say that will change your point of view that all miraculous healing are fake. Lets just leave it like that.
Lol.. All those you mentioned are simply preachers of the gospel with no known miracle performed.

Miracles started and ended with the Bible brother.

Then re-invented in Africa where black magic exists.

There countless numbers of people that performed miracle in the Bible including Jesus who is the author and perfecter of our faith. And there are many white Pastors that God used mightly to perform miracle. Miracle is real and biblical, that people are faking it doesn't change that fact. Jesus christ prophesied it that many fake prophet will rise up in His name and will lead many astray. Don't forget Jesus said if we belief in Him we will do greater things.
Forget the tales in the bible and give me the name of one white pastor who performs miracles.

How come the white men who introduced the religion to the black don't or can't perform miracles?...

Christianity was fused with African traditional powers or sometimes stage work to re-brith the miracles read in the bible.
