This figure is very conservative. There is fire on the mountain. Abeg stay safe if you have underlying disease or have old peeps around you.

It baffles me seeing people taking this covid-19 thing very serious at this point. Wisdom will continue to be far from such folks. As far as covid-19 is concerned in Nigeria, is a mirage. For close to two years now, you are walking freely, people are walking freely till now you are still scared. See ehn I don't have the right words to describe such individuals at all. To me it is pure stupidity.

You're very correct. I personally know a few people who were victims of the disease and I'm not very social type. Worse, government is treating awareness and the wearing of facemasks with kids gloves. Just enforcing the wearing of facemask wiould slash these numbers down.

I rarely wear facemasks when going out as I too have become somewhat nonchalant also.
