kikero: Dear esteemed colleague, I completely share your view on this matter, and would do the same too... But, I won't necessarily take issues with those who opt for self preservation first... This is a contagion of global proportions... Some of these health workers have families, even young children, they return to daily... What about chances of infecting them??!... No matter how careful we think we are, we must be more cautious now... Except you isolate yourself for weeks after attending to these patients, which is not an option open to most of these health workers. All in all, we can only do our best... It is well! 3 Likes 1 Share |

eni4real: Ebola, MDR TB, Lassa ( we are currently in the midst of a lassa epidemic), leprosy, etc ,etc.... Lassa and its cousin Ebola are worse. A patient with COVID 19 is far likely to survive it than a patient with Lassa or Ebola. |

YoungBlackRico: Don't mind them and people supporting them. So very unprofessional as in but Nigerians can be heartless sha, see dem supporting such bad treatment of sick people as if they themselves can't or won't fall sick one day maybe if it happened to them and while they were fatigued and being dragged to a closeby hospital, the workers there too reject them in the most crude manner, maybe thats when they'll learn to have some compassion 2 Likes |

Olodo24: The disregard Nigerians have for doctors is coming home to roost. In western nations doctors are the most highly paid professionals. In Nigeria, their reward is in heaven. Who will take care of their families if they die? On top of their poor remuneration. This is on all of us. We were all promoting medical tourism. Now there is nowhere to go. 2 Likes |

RiyaGoddess: No sir your post made no sense at all, if they lack the tools and equipment to treat the patient why would they expose themselves and other patients to the disease? Doctors around the world are dying right now because they were not adequately protected and worked themselves to death while sick. Worse of all is your statement for a government hospital to close down, just how does that help anyone? |

Highest level of unprofessionalism and highly against the ethics of medical profession. On the hand I don't blame them, their counterpart over there are well equipped with preventive gears. |

ChybuzzDD:Actually you are the one talking stupidly. Not having PPE is an excuse to spread panic in a hospital. Screaming and shouting is the best way to proceed when confronted with a case you are not equipped to handle abi? The health worker didnt even do a test just saw people coughing and started screaming and running all over the place spreading panic. A so called professional And how were the patients to know there was no PPE (whatever that means) when you are sick isnt it logical to just go to a hospital? SMH 1 Like |

Most of you commenting here don't know what PPE is. If you have attended safety seminar or course you would understand the importance of PPE. The doctors and nurses in Gbagada general hospital don't have that and it is not a place where infectious diseases are treated. If you talk of kidney and heart disease that is what are treated and others. The government and senators of this country have killed this nation's health system. I tell you that there is no single ventilator in this hospital. Those receiving oxygen get it in a very funny way. Go and see for yourself 1 Like |

Fragility6:Oga forget this grammar. What sort of nonsensical behavior the doctors and nurses put on? I don't want to believe they acted this unprofessionally. If it is true, then they deserve sack. With all the awareness and knowledge of how the virus transmits, they did not need to create any drama or act like people in stone age. What happens to politely not letting them get down, while directing them to appropriate hospital? We're they going to catch the virus in that way? Haba, this is too low of a trained medical personnel. If all the health personnel are going to put on this cowardly behavior, then we are doomed. 1 Like |

Y are they not running from it? Its bcoz they are equipped... Wat has the government done 4 health workers since Corona? The only reasonable thing us dat they've opened two labs 4 more testing.

eni4real: Italy has 92,472 cases of COVID 19 and about 10000 deaths as at today Most of the dead are old people, or people with preexisting conditions like diabetes and heart disease. Lassa is not global, as is Ebola because it mostly strikes rural, isolated communities. MDR TB is rare...due to better treatment regimens, but back in the 1980's and 90, during the bad horror days of the HIV crisis, people used to die from that thing. |

Ghostmode2two: But atleast masks and gloves can be provided even by the hospital incase of incidents like this. They are still your staff and they can better protect themselves and refer the patients to an infectious diseases hospital. |

Fragility6: I am a medic, it affects me, and I took an oath to treat people. See lassa fever. And HIV. The fact that fewer people die from both illnesses today is because medics... were bold enough to treat them write case reports, and do research into cures, at great risk to their lives....contributing to the knowledge base we have to help them. As for you, vote out PDP and APC come 2023.....or run for office yourself and make things better. I'm not running away from any sick patient. I took an oath as a doctor. I'm not going to run. In the US...they are improvising in the abscence of PPE...because not every hospital there has adequate supplies. I'll do that if that happens. 1 Like |
