Enigma2029:


You guys are so dumb .

Speak for yourself sir... Always speak for yourself.

StrikeBack:
I'm leaving earth

To which planet?

Love4God:

What about the discharged cases in Edo state,Enugu State and Rivers State ?
Why is the numbers not reduced in those states ?
Or did another five persons contract the coronavirus in Edo state ,or did another Two persons contract the virus in Enugu State or who completed the Rivers State coronavirus patients to be two again.
Nigeria and record keeping ! Very poor.
Even NCDC can't adjust the list promptly.
I know some people at the top are benefitting from not updating the list correctly.

check how it is done in other countries b4 u start ranting....NCDC is following the standard format...recorded cases' is different from 'active cases'

That is your thinking....mine is not like that

opebiboy:
brace yourself. This virus is going to end in Africa. Millions will die!

The testing has evidently been expanded. Interestingly most of the cases in Nigeria are mild to moderate.

Where we should be concerned is when the figures rise to a point where our medical infrastructure is overwhelmed and cases now graduate from mild to serious and critical.

We are not there now and may we never be there.

Putin of Russia that toyed with this insidious virus because of his political ambition, is in dire confusion right now, having relocated from Mosco, the epicentre, to a remote location. From there he is now dishing out instructions to his subordinates.

A few weeks ago he was so generous donating test kits to the US and some part of Europe. He thought Covid-19 was a phenomenon he had experienced before. I think he was doing all that to spite the US thus presenting himself as a better organized president who is more proactive. Today the story is quite different. Russia needs more test kits now

The story of Brazil is even funnier

I have said all this for those shouting audio, audio, scam, scam blablablah. The world is dealing with a phenomenon yet to be understood. Most near vaccine feats are still at best speculative.

But we will overcome. But for now everyone must accept the obvious reality stirring us in the face.

Will the lockdown be extended? Will the lockdown be as effective here as it has apparently been in developed climes? Can Nigeria actually be able to practice social distancing with our kind of living circumstance? Can Nigeria survive say a 3-month lockdown?
Time will tell, but there is hope.

We may not need to borrow every step adopted by other nations. We want to adopt measures taking into sharp cognizance our peculiar context and socio-cultural reality.

I choose to stop here for now.

We are Africans, with our will we will overcome this disease beyond the expectation and to the chargrin of keen distant onlookers.

Cheers everyone.

botrix:
Pls does it mean that the total discharged and deaths are subtracted from the total confirmed cases.or the total confirmed cases are the number of people still having the virus in Nigeria?

Confirmed cases include those discharged and those dead.

Montlab25:


Some of them will not believe until they are infected. I told someone who was doubting the figures to take a stroll to IDH Yaba and hug one of the patients and see if he won't be infected.

The figure might just grow in couple of days. I just weep for people not obeying the stay at home order and not maintaining social distance. People are gonna start panicking when death rate starts double every 24hrs

As far as I know,NCDC will not want this coronavirus to stop.If it stop their dreams of becoming a billionaire will cease.
They will know that someone has malaria They will forcefully quarantine the victim and say it is coronavirus.

My prayers go to Kano. Even Italy will likely condole it if care is not taken. This is not a joke, this is not politics, this is not the corruption games we play. God have mercy.

topsy23:


To avoid what?

I don't think the total of today's cases were release because Jigawa is not on the list

Really? Then Maybe they should release it every morning

Science has failed, let's try God. God never fails.

Montlab25:


People are dying and you are calling it a script? Is it until it happens to you before you believe? At least have respect for the dead. It is people like you who have refused to stay at home and follow guidelines. Ignorance is what will spread this disease in Nigeria.

I wander,they keep spreading fake ignorant news while people are dieing of the disease everyday.They are so ignorant to recollect that this was how the deaths started gradually in Italy,France USA e.t.c.He who has ear should hear.and be very careful this virus is deadly.

It's not about wanting it to stop. It just started. Boko haram was nothing compared to corona virus. It is well.

Nigeria is finally moving towards the peak.

Everybody take cover and be safe

What peak? We still climbing

score are in, I can now go to bed

fergie001:

Yes it will...

It came one day, it will leave same way. Hopefully, we will be alive to witness that.

So shall it be

The death of some patients may be another illness.But ncdc official will say it is coronavirus that kill them.

opebiboy:
We are in deep sh*t. Expect millions of deaths in Africa. That's the reality soon to come

Who wants to kill them?

botrix:
Pls does it mean that the total discharged and deaths are subtracted from the total confirmed cases.or the total confirmed cases are the number of people still having the virus in Nigeria?

Total confirmed case encompasses both death and discharged

knowhowk:
Hugging does not transmit the Virus ,If there is no Body fluid like saliva through cough ,sneezing by a carrier dropping into another person via the mouth or Nostrils ,Also If you wash your hands after touching surfaces or persons ,U cant get it ,It's those that fails to wash hands then use same hands on the eyes ,nose and mouth .

When I say 'hug' I mean go near or put yourself at risk not really 'hug'. Allowing him/her to sneeze 50cm to you is enough..

TruthinAction:
Science has failed, let's try God. God never fails.

This is an irresponsible statement to make. The scientists also worship God for your information. You think they've not been trying God since day one? I believe in God but don't make senseless statements like science has failed. So we should stop treatment or testing or searches for vaccines or cures or what is the meaning of your statement?

Our government has being saying trash since covid-19 , believe them at ur own peril. Every state want to share the EU money... Bunch of fools

botrix:

Total confirmed cases include; those with the virus, those discharged, and those the virus has killed.

Not everything you ask, though.

Discharged + Death= No case.

Total confirmed case - No case= Real confirmed case.

opebiboy:
Yahoo yahoo and audio coronavirus.

Exactly!

Ray360:
This is the highest so far, I think. One quick question :

Aside from the known fact that Lagos is well populated, why is the rate of newly discovered cases in other states very slow? The one for Edo is crawling like snail. some states have been on 2 cases only for almost a week now.

Testing centres are just being set up in those places. Once they have lots of equipments in those area, except more cases there.

Until all the 36 states have confirmed cases of the virus, guys do not expect stoppage in the spread of the Coronavirus. Don't forget EU money dey for ground and Governors must wack

I just hope they don't extend the lock down

I do believe that covid - 19 is real, but I doubt Nigeria cases, I feel our government is using it to make money which they will in turn steal all the money.
I've never seen a corrupt government like what we have today.
