There are just releasing figures like INEC collation center
On a serious note, I pray for quick recovery for active cases

By the time you wake up from your slumber, I pray it won't be too late for you.

lalasticlala, let's give this post a wider audience.. It will go a long way to give people hope and suppress panic.

(CNN) Covid-19 patients who are getting an experimental drug called Remdesivir have been recovering quickly, with most going home in days, STAT News reported Thursday after it obtained a video of a conversation about the trial.

The patients taking part in a clinical trial of the drug have all had severe respiratory symptoms and fever, but were able to leave the hospital after less than a week of treatment, STAT quoted the doctor leading the trial as saying.

The best news is that most of our patients have already been discharged, which is great. We've only had two patients perish

Dr. Kathleen Mullane, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Chicago who is leading the clinical trial, said in the video of obtained by CNN.

The drug, made by Gilead Sciences, was tested against Ebola with little success, but multiple studies in animals showed the drug could both prevent and treat coronaviruses related to Covid-19, including SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) and MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome).

Back in February, the World Health Organization said remdesivir showed potential against Covid-19.

STAT said it obtained and viewed a copy of the video discussion Mullane had last week with colleagues about the trial.

Most of our patients are severe and most of them are leaving at six days, so that tells us duration of therapy doesn't have to be 10 days,

she was quoted as saying

Everywhere the world over... Even in ur state... The chief of staff is d next powerful office after the executive.
You need to know we don't live in ideal world... In reality... A chief of staff is a de facto president.

First of all retract the assertion @bolded...it's ignorantly wrong.

Buhari isn't the first president with a cos, Obasanjo had one, Jonathan had one.. So tell me what's the fuss with Abba Kayri all about.

fykes:
No deputy Chief of staff... A minister will be made Chief of staff or boss mustapha eleveated and a minister from South east made SFG

Boss Mustapha elevated... I think that's a demotion.. It's the ineptitude of buhari that makes a chief of staff so powerful that we hardly know the difference between him and the president.

Seriously

Na Àmàlà this time around...thank God its not something injurious to health... The only problem is the price of Yam flower that will skyrocket.

I am of the opinion that the people behind all this hoax are using it as a marketing strategy.

Don't be surprised if u see something like; olive oil can cure corona just to sell the product

We go dey Alright Las Las for this country

The way these people have decided to set public buildings on fire for reasons best known to them.

We will wake up one morning to realise that they have burnt all public buildings in Abuja. The cause of fire outbreak in AG office has not be made public till now.

Maybe CBN is next (God Forbid)

Truly some people will definitely get... But i am sure it will be over reported... Transparency is a taboo in this country...

Hello nairalanders

I was surprised to receive a message requesting me to register my number again in the whatapp messenger app to chat.

I tried registering and I got a message saying I have been banned from using what's app. I tried RE registering all to no avail. Does anyone have similar experience?

Hmmmmm.

WhatsApp has banned two of my numbers in the last 1 year... I doubt if they will ever reopen it for you... At least not now.....

They eventually unbanned the one I use currently after 6 or 7 months...

So @OP get a new simcard... I am sure they will unban yours too in 6 or 7 months.

Second Half kill you there...

Tpave:
I listened to Okonjo Iweala's interview on TVC yesterday. Mehn... that woman is well experienced and very intelligent. She can rule this Nigeria and make a very good and successful leader honestly.

Nigeria is a complex nation, it takes more than being book smart to rule this country successfully.

This year get as e be.... Oluwa wetin dey occur

NB: I am not APC fan

You don't have to be an APC apologist before you say things like this... I am sure you must have read what you wrote and see the striking resemblance of your stupidity with that of a typical zombie.

Stop disgracing yourself on a public forum... Nobody gives a Bleep about the political party that feeds you.

And who told you Buhari knows shit about anything happening in this country ...

I am of the opinion that PMB is very sick and has nothing to do with most of the orders we are being told he gave.

This is not to abuse the president. It's just what I think it's happening, it's what it is currently.

As a software engineer nothing is different... It's just work work and work...

But I realised something I don't like... Babysitting... I didn't know I disliked it this much

SpecialAgent:
Some idiot just scammed me, funny thing is that I don't even feel anything despite it. I was like meh...it was meant to happen. it was alot of money too
What a valuable lesson

It has opened my eyes to know, some Nigerians will hardly make heaven. Cause I will never forgive that dude who stole my money today

Please share the experience... You might be saving some else from falling prey...

dawnomike:
The lady had refused to forgive my turning her down till date after 5 years... and she's married

I can relate... But why do they find it difficult to forgive on this note... It's been over 6 years and she is in a serious relationship now and she can't still let go.

seunayantokun:
Not tribe but ethnicity or ethnic group. You can also say people group. Tribe cannot be used for developed or civilised people. There are few tribes left in Africa. Thank you.

Thanks... I so much appreciate the correction..

Where is baba doing all of this from...? All we have been hearing is baba approves, baba approves. From where.?

Me I want to see my president oooo

What the lady did was a very stupid thing, no doubt..

On the other hand, the people around her are just there without any iota of sense including the idiot recording the video... Like wtf is wrong with Nigerians, this is an emergency situation that warrants an urgent and swift response. A second can determine someone's survival. That woman too is shouting, those guy's too are caressing her.

Yes they eventually took her to the hospital, but it was just too late.. Don't be surprised if those guys spent up to 30 minutes recording, blaming and caressing that lady.

Yoruba is a very complete Language... A proverb from the world best ethnic group goes thus...

"Tí abá ran ẹni ìṣe ẹrú, àfi tí ọmọ je"

His egungun has finally reached express, someone should tell me what happened to it eventually

Hello Nairalanders. This is causing serious argument.
I have shared this video with so many people and i have heard different things from all of them.

Please watch this video and listen patiently and tell us what you heard.

As for me, I heard Laurel

cc Lalasticlala Mynd44 what do you think

American scientists warned trump not to implement 5G.
Forget British liars.

http://endoftheamericandream.com/archives/5g-danger-hundreds-of-respected-scientists-sound-the-alarm-about-health-effects-as-5g-networks-go-up-nationwide

But America has the highest number of confirmed positive cases of corona virus...

5G is not even deployed in Lombardy, Italy yet.. So what should we call this now..?

GamalNasser:
Believe MSM at your own peril

But we should believe you without credible research nor facts for our own safety...

Continue...

To think some of the mongers of these rumours are graduate of science institutions beats my imagination...

patomberekpe:
When You read donate You think it's free, they're not free,they sold to them to pay by selling their companies to China, 9r other Investment.

See this one again...

Which companies are being sold to China... How much does 1000 ventilators cost.

Wake up and don't believe every crap u read online. What do u think America wants to use 2 trillion stimulus package fund for. An amount that is worth more than the whole African economy and if it was to be the value of a country's GDP, it will be the 7th highest GDP.
