Propaganda has its limits.

Even China the king of propaganda tried to sweep things under the rug but it backfired.

Nigerian government should swallow its battered pride and ask WHO for help now with proper screening equipments before its too late.
they are already playing politics with it already someone on this thread said it's propaganda from ipob and pdp,smh

Ignorant ramblings. The fact that you are sick now doesn't mean you were showing symptoms yesterday hence the word incubation period.

Even your ignorant rant doesn't change the fact that our ports are on high alert and they are deploying electronic, manpower and scientific tools to detect and prosecute the virus, your fellow Nigerians rose up to detect, confine and treat the infected gentleman from Italy.

Just a few days ago, they conducted tests on a sick Lagosian, but it was negative so you can not open your hateful, bad bele, evil wishing and unpatriotic mouth to rant that your fellow Nigerians are not on the job doing their best.

Your fellow Nigerians are first responders, they are on the frontline facing danger to protect ungrateful loudmouths and cowards on the internet, but all hateful and unpatriotic people like you do is wish evil and calamity, celebrate and rejoice in destruction and negativity instead of rolling up your sleeves to contribute your own portion.

Btw, stop posting internet den say den say rubbish posted by internet cowards and unpatriotic losers.

You know Nigerians with their lackadaisical attitude to everything. Maybe the person to check was not or sit or probably the machine failed when he arrived.

Screening like that , while helpful, won't stop the corona virus from spreading.

If you really want the virus to stop srpeading, you would have to aggresively quarantine everyone comming into Nigeria for 14 days, test them for the virus., and then isolate every positive person.

Which won't actually stop every case....and besides it is virtually impossible.

Keep quiet there !!! He came in on the 25 with symptoms , went to the hospital on 26th and his test result came out positive on the 27th so stop saying gibberish ... Today a senator said he wasn't satisfied with the approach of the Buhari govt at the international airport in screen for Covid 19 and he prefered the south African method which didn't allow people leave the aircraft till they were screened as against Inept Buhari method of handing incoming passengers palmphlets with phone numbers to call if they suspect they are sick with any flu like symptoms.

We pray Buharis incompetence doesn't make this worse as nobody trust in his ability to handle such an outbreak
Sorry, Gamal, and Nick, but you guys are getting it wrong here.

1.The type of screening the South Africans are doing is the same type of screening the Nigerians are doing...which is checking for temperature, the difference being that the SA people are doing it in the plane. Nigeria does it when you come in.

2.Either way, both methods won't stop the virus. The only way to see if someone is infected is by doing a blood test(Because asymptomatic patients would pass the screening test). Already, facilites are on ground to test for the virus.(for once the Ministry of Health was prepared in that regard).

3.For now, the best that can be done is to isolate every contact, and isolate every contact of every contact.....which is not going to be easy.

4.Don't panic.

deadly virus and he entered Nigeria on 25th February,Just 3 days ago?. God please speed up Biafra,I can not keep living with these animals in human skin,we pray thee oh Lord!!..
Re: Coronavirus: Pictures Of Screening Equipment For Travellers At Lagos Airport by texazzpete(m): 5:50am On Feb 28, 2020
This is a basic FLIR thermal camera, and is only effective at detecting people with elevated temperatures.
Very many coronavirus victims don’t have any symptoms, or don’t have fevers. In fact, many scientists believe that temperature measurement like this is largely useless.
Re: Coronavirus: Pictures Of Screening Equipment For Travellers At Lagos Airport by tammie24: 5:52am On Feb 28, 2020
Screen them or quarantine

Corona may have already found its way into the country and being mistaken for catarrh and fever

One question for you.

How did it spread to USA, U.K, Japan and other developed countries? Are you saying there method too is inept or their presidents are incompetent to handle an outbreak such as this?

These things are not as easy as you type them. There are several things that may lead to missing out a positive person when they enter the country. Just don't spew emotional rants because of your dislike for a particular president.

If they have genuine equipment in the lagos airport why were they not able to detect the Italian man that now have Corona virus in Nigeria?
Re: Coronavirus: Pictures Of Screening Equipment For Travellers At Lagos Airport by Bankowner: 5:55am On Feb 28, 2020
We have screening equipment, yes! But do the operators know how to use/read them correctly?

God help us in Lagos!

Yes because

1.When he entered Nigeria, his symptoms were probably not severe.

2.Note that he went to hospital on the 26th..one day after he arrived. His symptoms got worse...and he was tested because he travelled from an area where coronavirus is around.

3.Symptoms of coronavirus-19 in the early stage include fever, weakness and cattarh. Now, that's the same symptoms as seen in cases of catarrh (which is caused by a relative of the same coronavirus-19). What heightened suspicion was that he travelled from an endemic area..which was why he was quckly isolated and tested.(and that shows our system is working)

4.Most screening tests around the world look at the temperature. Temperature can vary from day to day, even in feverish people. It is possible that when he came in, his temperature had fallen (which could be due to normal variations, or he could have taken some paracetamol or other anti-fever drugs before flying to Nigeria).

5.The screening tests used around the world would miss most asymptomatic travellers. COVID-19 has an incubation period of 14 days.

6.If we really wanted to stop the virus...we should quarantine each and every one coming into the country, by road or by sea or by air for 14 days...which is a logistical nightmare, and also won't catch every sufferer. (Note that people who were tested and given the all clear have come down with the virus after leaving quarantine facilites). The best we can do is isolate and report.
Re: Coronavirus: Pictures Of Screening Equipment For Travellers At Lagos Airport by backnbeta(f): 5:59am On Feb 28, 2020
What of the 14days window period? What if they don't become symptomatic until days after they are released into town? I'm with the 'Sinnator' on this sir- your best is not good enough and your laxity is exposing the whole country and making naija vulnerable
Re: Coronavirus: Pictures Of Screening Equipment For Travellers At Lagos Airport by lloyds(m): 5:59am On Feb 28, 2020
Nigeria! Nigeria!

Una just remember that you need screening equipments since all these weeks that youve heard of the outbreak.

Well, even those tools there looks like obsolete. .

A really 'good response....would be to quarantine everyone that comes into the country by road, air and sea for 14 days...and even then that is not guaranteed to stop the virus...as some people may still come down with the disease afterwards (and is a logistical nightmare)
