Thread For Health Workers Living Outside Nigeria Share Your Experience by iphi(m): 7:15am On Mar 24, 2020
Hello everyone I'm a Nurse and I work in one of the hospitals in UK I have had quite a number of experiences in the fight against Corona virus, one that made me shared tears was an aged couple they both had it and their children could not visit them, i was the one taking care of them, they died this morning, exactly 3 mins apart like one called the other in the other realm. I also have an 83 year old lady that is recovering so please not all old people die from it. Please stay at home, remember to always wash your hands regularly and drink warm water regularly (Ginger and garlic tea) helps alot. other health workers please share your experience.

Can you give us how many reported cases in UK and how many deaths?

Also, the old couple who died in your hospital, were they recorded and reported officially?
Because I think many governments are not reporting the actual figures. The numbers might be deflated

what you are asking for is an extremely confidential information which isn't allowed in medicine...its purely unethical. At least, he had given you an idea of the casualties and what to do to help yourself...refrain from cold water intake. Drink warm water and hot tea instead.

I learnt in the whole of Nigeria, the number of ventilators in our government hospitals is less than 200 units, in a country of over 200m population and the government is harping on referring parents to the government hospitals ? Common shocked

I learnt Atiku's son didn't see any ventilator to use at the university of Abuja teaching hospital. I urge they refer him to a private hospital within the FCT because his parents can surely afford it. What a country! Equip our hospitals and stop running overseas over ordinary ear infections ...they never listened. Now is the okay back period. The masses too who can bear anything are human.

Please OP, did ventilator play any role in the recovery of the geriatric patients from this epidemic in your hospital?

sir/ma this is confidential. Let me update a little with a layman's term, the case is worse as it is because the virus is mutating and we have two types, there is one that shows immediately you get the virus, there is another that remains hidden. I can be alright and still be a carrier of this virus, that is how dangerous it is. Honestly they are trying to understand why it doesn't affect more blacks than the way it has affected whites which if discovered might be the cure. Our prayers is that it stops mutating

sir even in the UK resources for the treatment and care for corona virus patients are scarce. Even nurses run away. Very limited hands here
