Mississippi is calm, national guard patrol often time. Enough groceries at home, I am still working though and am scared coz I don't wanna catch this shit and die. And finally, it's now clear to me that white and black ain't the same.

Pls kindly tell us the difference.

I am in Montreal and I am still going to work but my boss is in communication with the government for possible shut down.

Boris Johnson just announced a lockdown without using the word "lockdown". Good development because people were ignorant to the imposed measure; "stay tf at home". Apart from the eerie feeling of walking around a ghost town when I walk down my street. I'm good, lectures are been delivered online, my local Tesco is open even though I will have to join a long queue to get in. Hope it will all be over soon

No single Person Abroad has said anything probably Nigerians Abroad does not read news on Nairaland my Thought .

We do. I live in the Netherlands �� where series cases of Covid-19 has been recorded but the government has ordered everyone to stay indoor at the moment so there’s no cause for alarm. We would definitely overcome this

Am still wondering how Nigerians resident in Italy and other areas ravaged by this deadly virus are coping.

So if you are outside Naija kindly educate us on how you guys cope with this deadly virus.

my prayers is that all those living illegally shouldn't contract it, if not it will be a sure way to get a visa to the other side.

please, what's the difference here

I just have one thing to say to Nigerians as a Nigerian living abroad. Stay your ass home if you don't have to go out. Wash your hands. Use masks and hand sanitizers. Avoid large groups. Right now, the governor of my state has completely shut down the state and I hope Lagos state would follow suit soon. You know the way we were looking at Coronavirus like it's a chinese or italian problem, it has now become a problem in the U.S with 35k confirm cases. Just under a week. The way Lagos is 40 cases today, if care and precaution and common sense is not applied it can become 400 cases next week and 4000 cases in 2 weeks. One last thing. Pray that God provides a final solution to this virus and give doctors wisdom and grace to deal with patients already sick.



Use your brain and STAY HOME. STAY HOME. STAY HOME. DON'T ATTEND WEDDING. OR ANY GATHERING. STAY HOME.
A word is enough for the wise.

In East Lansing, MI everything is kind of shut down as most grocery stores have reduced hours and the bus system isn't working however, you can request/schedule a ride with CATA. They would pick you up to grocery stores to shop and bring you back or to work for those working. Grocery stores are short of Rice in recent times but I got every other food stuffs I need for the now at home.

Bros. You don move go US again.

Effects of watching dooms day preparation too much. Tissue papers, hand sanitizer, milk and bread are Gold now.

Beef has become gold too but luckily there are Butcher shops all around my city. It's a farming city, both cattle and plants.

In Toronto...Back from Nigeria 2 weeks ago...
Bought lots of food, frige is full but i may ruun out in 3 weeks. Most people out of Job, I will say upto 85%. Major FOOD STORES ARE OPEN, No restaurants/fast food but takeout is ok. No gathering of more than 20 people, Major malls are close down. All schools closed down. Been home past 2 weeks and eating more food than i normally would cause theres nothing to do, on Nairaland all day. Youtube movies and sometime videogames. step out once every 3 days for 30 minutes for fresh air, boring as fuk. ohh i forgot, i cant even invite people over so gotta soapy 3 times a day. my left hand is busy. Hope that government cheques comes this week including employment insurance, cause i just came back from Nigeria, meaning enu ti gbe(mouth is dry/no money).

can mosque solve it ?

It seems like church can't solve this one ��

Trump is talking about giving us $1200 for every adult and $500 for every child, this isn't going to be enough especially for people who have already lost jobs.

We're definitely already in a recession now, as jobless claims for unemployment have hit the US dept of Labor.

Even if the virus leaves today, it will be years before the US economy recovers.


Small businesses like restaurants are firing employees left and right. All because our State dept didn't shut everything down early enough.


Blame the Chinese sure but part of the blame goes to The Trump administration dragging their feet and even members of congress like Republican Byrd who got early warning in February and sold millions of his stock, while telling the American people that we were going to be safe from Coronavirus

I work in the hospital. We are running short of mask, PPE devices, gowns, even hand sanitizers. Initially patients family steal them, but now, the hospitals are hiding them so workers can have enough.

visitors are no more allowed to visit except if the patient is dying. In that case, the guest is properly screened before allowed entrance. If they are cough, they must wear a mask. If they have any form of fever, they will be denied entrance.

If a worker is sick, he or she is asked to stay home until recovered. After recovery, hospital quarantine you for another 2 wks. Depending on ur contract with the hospital, some Wil pay you while at home, others half, other may not, so it's advisable to listen to precaution and not get sick. I try to protect myself by the following ways.

1. I pray. PS 91 every day.
2. I use a small portion of Vaseline In my nose before I step out, it helps filter some air u breath.
3. I wear mask if I have to come in contact with outsiders. But I turn it inside out because the inner part has a filter that filters the air you breath. I repeat some, wash it, dry and re use because it's limited now. We only wear in the hospital if the patient is confirmed with an air borne disease because we have limited quantities.
4. I try to be more committed to washing my hands. Sanitizers are now very scarce. They said u can make homemade ones with alcohol and aloe versa and something else I can't rem. but av not really paid attention to that yet but sooner or later I will.
5. I take out my scrubs from the front door or garage and put them in the laundry, take a shower before going to the main rooms.
6. I try not to touch my face except when am taking a bath. Very difficult.
7. Social life is reduced to 0.0000% except with social media connect.a bit boring but safety first. So I keep myself busy with Nigerian movies, Netflix, sleeping, reading my books and learning new things like cooking if I have ingredients, hair styling, make up skills, nairaland forum, reading my Bible and praying plus watching more CNN news to get new updates.
8. It's still cold and allergy season. To prevent confusion with COVID-17, I try to stay hydrated, with lemon, honey and ginger. I also take vit C.
9. I pray PS. 91:7 (A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.)
10. I trust God to protect me.


I think av said enof.

I live in the centre of Barcelona Spain which used to be filled with tourist all over ghe world, as at today you can count the number of people in my entire neighbourhood. The good side of it is that the grocery stores are open 24/7, pharmacies and some fruit and meat shops too. The public transport still works. There are few government provisions to cushion the harsh effect of this period, for instance they have agreed to pay salaries of the two weeks we have been at home. There has been tax reduction for freelance workers. The entire situation is not as bad it should be, the only thing is that we are not used to staying this long at home especially if you live in a lively part of the city.

In Chicago, schools and most offices have been shut, we are working from home until towards the end of April. Schools have been providing online classes and activities for kids which is good because they can still keep learning but hard especially if your kid is younger and you have to support them while working, but at least we are thankful we do not work in industries where you cannot work from home and face losing our jobs.

I'm sure it will be a lot more worrying for people in Italy especially those close to areas such as Lombard.

Same here in Spain ,working from home, schools, churches and some offices are closed, they provide Online Tv clasess for children..Mainly children and old people are not allowed outside but adults can go to Market to get food stuff with Mask, hand glove and keep distance, not allowed to walk in group or two.And your errand should not be more than 1hour in the street....police are everywhere,They have caught 7Africans from Mali and Senegal that did not keep to the rules, their punishment is 1000euro fine, canceled documents and will not be able to apply in future.. serious Matter.

Stuffed my home with 9ja food. Thank God we r doing well.

My pay check is down more than 50%, I still work, they kind of monitor us if any has symptoms then they could stop the whole crew.
Tough time, no tissue paper , no groceries

Yes o church can't. But God can and will.

Generally, I am more concerned for Nigerians in Nigeria. It is well in Jesus name, Amen.

Reporting from Taipei... I go my normal work... But with my mask on and hand gloves most atimes, I had symptoms 2weeks ago but disappeared after I lay off from work for 5 days, increase my diat... Nothing dey happen

Corrections:



YOUR ASSERTION IS NOT TRUE BRO!! I PRAY FOR EVERYONE OUT THERE FOR THE LORD'S SAFETY TO BE UPON THEM AND COMPLETE SOLUTION TO THE VIRUS.

MY POST IS JUST TO LET PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED IN THEIR
MINDS THAT NOTHING GOOD CAN COME OUT FROM AFRICA TO KNOW THAT

NOTHING IS PERMANENT AND THINGS COULD CHANGE FOR THE BETTER IN AFRICA SUPERNATURALLY........AFRICA COULD BE THE SAFEST PLACE TO LIVE IN THE WORLD IN THE NEAREST FUTURE.

you made a good point man but bad timing

BlackPantherCri:


Oh God!

What you gonna do? Quarantine yourself in the facility for 14 days? God bless all the people in the front line.

impossible. Otherwise I’d have to live permanently there. Everyday I go to work, the 14 days resets and goes back to day 0.

It is what it
