I think Covid is now widespread in Lagos. I think many people have been displaying mild symptoms and suspecting Covid, but most are not voicing out for various reasons. May God help us all.

Dude, please go get tested soon and stay away from people while you wait abeg. I pity all those with underlying conditions that are likely to run into you should you decide to live your life like usual. This disease dey kill and e no dey discriminate.
Even many of those who are supposedly healthy, and have had symptoms, but have managed to recover, describe it as hell. I would not wish it on my worst enemy

Sore throat! You may get away with a spoon of honey twice a day and drinking hot stuff. But that is not to say that you are definitely not to get tested if the problem escalates abeg.

Common symptoms of malaria include:

* Pain areas: in the abdomen or muscles
* Whole body: chills, fatigue, fever, night sweats, shivering, or sweating
* Gastrointestinal: diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting
* Also common: fast heart rate, headache, mental confusion, or pallor

I just called the NCDC toll free number... They said they won't get me test just like that... They said what I had is a minor that since I'm not feeling sick that I don't need to go to NCDC for a Corona virus test... They said I should just go to the mnormal hospital for a medical check up.

Please dont go to any hospital as these could be mild covid symptoms, and going into a hospital may help spread the infection. Rather if you are not short of breath, and having to high fever, then do self isolate for 1week. Ensure you keep your distance from close members of your household, and ideally they should self isolate also for 2weeks, or for 1week from when they start experiencing symptoms themselves.

Loss of taste and smell at this critical period is covid until proven otherwise.

Cheers
