Aldebaran:Go find out how many index case was first recorded in Brazil and how many in Nigeria? Better still how many international flights Brazil received daily and how many is Nigeria. You cannot come here and make stupid comparison when lives are being lost. |

rusher14: ^^^ Nonsense. Utter nonsense, Sir. What is the utility of contract tracing when you have conducted just about 5000 tests to date? Your borders were closed about a month ago. There were flights (with thousands of passengers no doubt) from all the major outbreak centres (in Asia, North America and Europe) to Nigeria up until the closure of those borders. Those passengers were not tested and/or quarantined before disappearing into the general population. Do you know what that means? The Trump led US administration exhibited the same arrogance you have on display here - the US president claimed the caseload of 15 (as at mid-February 2020) would disappear within days. I do not need to tell you what the situation is in that country today. If Nigeria gets through this problem without an epidemic that ultimately collapses the public health infrastructure it will be for reasons other than adequate preparation or a coordinated, effective response. That is the truth. It is still early days - far too early for you to brag about the efficacy of your so-called lockdown. Trump bragged even more and look where it got him. And by the way, what did you mean by "till date it is very likely you haven't come across a carrier because the lockdown is effective"? Is Covid 19 status written on anyone's forehead? How can you confidently make an assertion like this? |

And if you think The reported cases are the only cases we have, then you really haven't been living in Nigeria |

VolvoS60: It is not early days. Had there been a chance of an explosion in Covid-19 spread we would have been experiencing it already. Testing is not the end to the virus. Heck , the only benefit you gain is that you know who to isolate from the general population. After all, there's no tested and trusted treatment regime. If majority of Nigerian carriers are asymptomatic then there is little to worry about because only few would fall Ill. There is no cure, there is no vaccine and the only strategy that works is isolation of carriers from the general population. |

Aldebaran: Sorry to say but u are ignorant. How many tests have/do we conduct? Before you celebrate consider many carriers without symptoms that may be spreading it actively as we speak. Infact we are in greater danger than Brazil,because they know what they are up against. We don't!! |

Aldebaran: How many people have accessed the test and possible post test if need be...Have anyone in your neighborhood tested? Compare the two country wisely. How many state have corona virus laboratory...? We give God the glory !!! |

rusher14: ^^^ Time will tell if it isn't early days. Time will tell. Even though for all our sakes I hope that you are right and I am wrong. rusher14: ^^^ And isn't that the whole point? Isn't that what your contact tracing is (or should be) predicated on? rusher14: ^^^ Just for argument's sake, what if they aren't asymptomatic? It is a bit odd for you to raise the question of symptomatology - after all, you challenged a fellow on this thread when he brought it up. The information from the epicentres of the outbreak does tell us that up to 25% of those infected are asymptomatic. Why did you challenge that fellow then? rusher14: ^^^ And how do you know who the carriers are? Isn't it by testing? This argument is settled. |

rusher14:Knowing who to isolate is a heck of a benefit. It means you don't have to lock down the commercial capital of your country because of a few hundred people who are infected with the virus. You only need to lock down the infected minority, and the majority can go on with their lives. Also, as long as there are infected people out there who have not been tested, the virus will continue to spread even under lockdown. Testing is the only real solution that can stop the virus. Lockdown will only slow it down at great cost. 4 Likes 5 Shares |

Aldebaran: Bross don't deceive ur selfooo! The only reason we have low positive numbers is our low testing numbers. If u read the write up well, you'll notice that south Korea is only able to contain thier's by mass testing campaign and aggressive contact tracing. Both of these are none existing in d Nigerian govt COVID-19 efforts. South Africa have tested over 90,000 with 2,506 confirmed cases ( about 2%). While Ghana have tested over 40,000 with 606 cases ( about 1%). But Nigeria have only tested 6,000 with 373cases ( that's a whopping 5%). Don't deceive urself this our govt is a push and start one. They can't do nothing. Ramaphosa literally addresses SA everyday. Akufo Ado started crying the other day when he passionately addressed Ghanaians about Covid n pleaded with them to stay home. And keeps addressing Ghana like every 3days, answering questions randomly from reporters n getting feedback from d fields to his Covid taskforce Meanwhile ur Bubu have only read 3 speach written for him to read. Didn't u read today that Covid have killed 11 in Nigeria since inception, meanwhile police n soldiers have killed 18 persons in d name of enforcing lockdown in this country? Forget joor na God hand we de, our Govt na copy n paste with absolutely no Idea n initiative. Ordinary to share money n palliatives, na #100b scandal follow join |
