Nigerian Tests Negative For Coronavirus After First Testing Positive by Babtech001(op): 12:07pm On Mar 13, 2020
The Federal Government, on Friday, said the second confirmed case of coronavirus in the country no longer had the virus in his system and would be discharged from the treatment centre in Lagos.

The Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire, said this while giving an update on the virus in Abuja.

He said the person, who had contact with the index case, had no symptoms of the COVID 19, adding that he had not been sick while in isolation.

He also said the index case, an Italian who is receiving treatment in Lagos, would also be discharged next week.

He said, “Between January 7 and March 12, 2020, a total of 42 people who met our case definition have been screened for COVID 19 in Edo, Lagos, Ogun, Yobe, Rivers and Kano states, and the Federal Capital Territory.

“40 tested negative and two were confirmed positive. These two are the index case and a contact with the index case. No death has been recorded.”

Re: Nigerian Tests Negative For Coronavirus After First Testing Positive by seunlayi(m):
Firstly, let me ask how effective are the test kits?
Secondly, maybe there should be a period of confirmation before publicity while the victim is still under quarantine.
Thirdly, I will just prefer a total lock at our entry points or quarantine of incoming visitors for proper check.



So far, kudos to our local Medical team for doing a good job

Shameless country. Good for nothing government. That means someone with the virus can test negative and someone without will test positive. And the spreading will increase.
