Two things; either the aged woman was positive and Enugu health workers are not equipped and do not have the appropriate test kits for the virus or that change of environment illness killed her.

From the narrative, it is obvious that Enugu isn't equipped to take on coronavirus at the moment because I see no reason why the test would take three days when that of the world and Lagos' takes a day or hours.

Beyond negligence, it is wise to quarantine and isolate every one who came in contact with the deceased since the result could be false.

The so called isolation center looks like a community hospital. Other than Lagos, I sincerely doubt any other state in Nigeria can manage victims of the virus.

The State government will no doubt respond to save face and rescue itself fromthis embarrassment. Gburugburu is only interested in looking like an active governor. He is clueless as Buhari himself.

I suggest the family members or anyone that have come in contact with her should go get tested.

You don't need coronavirus to kill you in Nigeria. There are too many killers already

helinues:
Those who are succumbing to the virus are from late 50's. That means they could have died even without having the virus..

How many coronavirus cases do they have in UK gan gan that her mother had to be infected in just 5 months trip to UK

.

Oga stop talking what you don't know. Coronavirus has been killing both young and old, has nothing to do with age.

That coach was 21 years old, and Coronavirus killed him. There are hundreds of young healthy people the virus has killed. You people said it doesn't affect blacks, but today that is fake info too, blacks are already dying from it. You people said our hot weather, smh, another fake info because other HOT African countries like ours are starting to get Coronavirus cases. Some of you also said it only kills people with weak immune system, which is another hogwash, because the virus has killed healthy people, the virus has killed old and young, male and female, patients and doctors, it has killed rich and poor, elites and commoners and maybe soon, it will be killing presidents.

Advise them to get tested

bkool7:



When Lagos is taking up the challenge of the outbreak and not waiting for anyone from Abuja. If it does not concern the Enugu govt, not the person that died, does she live in Lagos ?

U r taking this whole issue too personal.
If we start comparing how Lagos is benefiting from this govt n how enugu is benefiting u will start shouting ipob.

This sums up my problem with our medical emergency management system in Nigeria.
Always quick to report a negative test because of expired reagents, test kits or quack professionals.

But when would Nigeria as a country get it right. Failure in Federal, failure in states.

So abadon house is where Enugu state want to treat Corona Virus But why is it that average Nigerian are not serious How can a state be using these disgusting facility as isolation center in deadly issue like these

Pls what is the name of our Health Minister because only this administration you never hear or known who the hell is Education Minister and Health Minister only Oshiomhole, kyari, Adeshina, Amaechi its only all these irrelevant bollocks we do hear about.

Note that she returned from UK recently but in isolation, it seems all health workers were scared to attend to her. Sorry ooo, Aunty. RIP to the dead!

UnaToto:
I refuse to blame only Buhari and the federal government for the failure of governance in Nigeria though it's obvious he's incompetent.


Nigeria's government at all levels has failed woefully.

The local is nothing to write home about,i don't even think it exists.
State government has failed the people.


An average Nigerian is wicked and selfish.

If this virus spreads in Nigeria,then that's the end.


Quite unfortunate...

Yet, a paltry sum of 20 million naira was released by the state government

Lagos is giving more than it's benefiting

so nigeria has center for disease control..interesting

1 out of 10 cases

densiks:
The story is pathetic.

The claim here is that she tested negative to covid-19,hence no clinical need for isolation.so why was she still kept in the abandoned building to the extent that she had to pass on there?

It took 3 days for the test/result to be ready so they kept her for that period. While she was there her health failed due to bad care.

At this point in Nigeria, I don't think it should take more than 6 hours for the test/result to be done with.

XANDERBOY85:


How do Igbos 'poke nose into matter that is not their own'? Or are you implying Igbos should not make any comment about Lagos state? On what basis are you making this demand? Is Lagos just a Yoruba affair, and only Yoruba abre allowed to make a commentary on governance in the state?

Are you also saying Igbos have not said anything critical about governance in Enugu state?

You nasty Igbo-hating bigots are so insecure and infantile!

I hardly do this on sm, but I think I am ready for this: pls Lagos is Yoruba affairs, the way you people scream about Lagos this Lagos that if only u do half of that to any eastern state by now Enugu wud have developed more than what its. An old eastern state that still wallow in its past glory SMH. Cry me blood if this stuff happened in Lagos I know many of ur type wud av scream Tinubu has pocket Lagos money, is only a fool person will leave his/her houz that is on fire and went about trying to pull is neibo owns. The problem with you guys is you ppu will never take corrections, no one knows it all listen and learn.

Bro I am at Esbs along Independence layout come and beat me.

No mind the mumu

You sound sensible and reasonable however, your monica makes it difficult to relate with you. Change your monica or post useless comments that is in line with your monica.

This is the real situation and reality.

They have isolation centers in Ogun, Kaduna, Plateau and Bauchi State. That i know. You will be surprised that the Eastern States is lacking in so many things because the People blame Buhari and never the Governor. Whole markets will burn down and you will hear Igbos, blaming it on Hausa fulani tanker or Dangote trucks. Its just within the last month that Anambra bought firetrucks from the same Innoson that is producing those trucks and maybe paying taxes to the State Govt, and they dont have fire trucks or mandate shops to have fire extinguishers, but they will blame Buhari and pay for FFK to come down and abuse him very well.

Are you sure this people know how to run covid19 test,who thought them meaning the disease have long spread in the country those tested negative mite be positive

Oh

OH MAH GOD!

Na wao, they just leave mama for one community granmer school.

A very unfortunate country!

Fake news. There's no Coronavirus in Nigeria. The government is sponsoring all these news in order to create an avenue to loot the country as usual.

You are indeed sick.

PassingShot:

You are indeed sick.

hhmm

The is not a surprise to me. The level of unprofessionalism usually displayed by the nurses and even medical officers at all these teaching hospitals is just unacceptable.

They don't care about human lives . I dont even understand what they learn in medical school. I say this because UNTH in a way contributed largely to the death of my mum in 2016 just because of the non challant attitude of the doctors.

My mum was diagnosed of cancer and after series of test she was admitted . At the point she was admitted, she could talk and move her body but the moment the useless hospital admitted her , her condition became worse.

At some point the doctors who were looking after her all travelled for something like a seminar and left a rookie doctor to do their job.

There was even a useless nurse who was threatening my sick mum just because my mum shouted to attract attention when they first arrived at the hospital. The nurse even poisoned the mind of other nurses in the general ward towards my mum.

To avoid all the drama, we had to move my mum out of that ward and sought a private ward for her and my family members yet this stupid nurse was making moves to frustrate her in that same private ward.

The doctors who were handling her health condition initially probably didn't even know what was truly wrong with her and we're just doing guess work. Eventually they we're no where to be found as they felt relieved to hand over their job to a rookie

We eventually had to transfer her to a private hospital in Lagos . By that time , the situation was already worse and within a week she died.

So I believe the lady's story and I can tell she is saying the truth. The hospital may want to cover up the truth but we all know that in Nigeria, all these government hospitals are just worthless to Nigerians.

Oshigun:


Will you people stop spreading ignorance that is leading to panic? The virus cannot survive exposure to temperature above 26. Temp is above 30 constantly in Nigeria. It was 34 in Lagos yesterday and 28 right now which is one of the cooler days. It is therefore going to be hard for the virus to gain traction in Nigeria.

Furthermore, majority of the fatalities have been elderly people, with perhaps lower immunity, and people with underlying health conditions. Most healthy people recover from the virus with many registering only mild symptoms like Mikel Arteta the manager of Arsenal football club.

Work is ongoing desperately and actively as well worldwide to produce a potent anti-virus for Covid-19.

This is a time for the educated and exposed to be agents of reassurance to those who are anxious and scared rather than be instruments of scare mongering and panic some of you are turning yourselves into because of primordial hate of the FG or others. Remember you are either part of the problem or the solution. Choose which you want to be.

Can I get your votes in 2023 when I run for President lol? Some of us sabi pass doom mongers like Melinda Gates " I see dead bodies across Africa". We thank God, Allah, Yahweh, Sango etal.

UtchayN:
Hello, Good afternoon @nairaland forum, Like I said in my thread, I'm not the victim, my mother is still well alive and even younger. I only tweeted for them because i feel that if its true, then proper attention should be given to the matter at hand...
Thank you

They should have done autopsy too to medically establish cause of death
