FFS people still don't understand what's happening . Due to the manner of infection, yes it's not going anytime soon. Even countries that have flattened their curve can always have a resurgence of the virus.

Now for us to move on and manage it we need preventive measures i.e a vaccine so our immune system gets a heads up. A cure that's been touted everyday here can only help reduce the fatalities but doesn't help if the infection is widespread like it is now.

That is what WHO said but people are recovering from the Covid19 using some drug cock tail. Ask yourself why are people recovering from Covid19.
There are many people that have had covid 19 , And didn't know but recovered without symptoms. That's why some governments are considering anti body Tests to determine who has had the disease or not.

Yes. Theres currently 312 different treatment for this. Chloroquine is one of them.
What we need is either a "knockout" drug or a highly effective vaccine to eradicate the virus. Long shots I must say

4months later Nigeria has only officially recorded less than 200deaths. Will people stop dying because of the existence of covid-19? Corona will clearly not be a problem in Nigeria . Every one should learn to drink chloroquine once you feel any symptoms .



You're calling 200 deaths only!
When nigeria has one of the highest mortality rates in the world while other countries are having less than 50 deaths irrespective of their morbidity

I’m optimistic that we will have several effective vaccines eventually, since this is a virus that most people’s immune systems can naturally handle given enough time, and vaccines work by stimulating the immune system. It’s not the kind of virus that attacks the immune system or hides from it. Honestly I think Nigeria should be working on creating a vaccine since it’s not rocket science. If we are waiting for other countries to make a vaccine and immunize their own citizens before selling it to us, we will be waiting for a long time. If India can make vaccines, why can’t we? Even a primitive vaccine should work.

Like I said once before.. No one can contain this virus.. Unless there is going to be an actual vaccine which is appearing to be less likely everyday the virus will be a normal thing, and even if there are no cases the whole thing will start all over again.. All this shutdown and social distancing shit is nothing but bull... We can't do this forever, governments need to start helping citizens build stronger immune systems..

If every country could do what South Korea, Germany, and many Asian countries have done to suppress the virus - the use of quality face-masks everywhere and many smart infection reduction strategies, combined with fast and proactive testing, we could wipe out the virus. However, only a few countries seem to have the vision and imagination to do what needs to be done. And as long as there is one country in the world that isn’t handling the virus correctly, the countries handling it correctly will not be totally safe.

Countries relying on lockdown to control the virus will never be able to lift their lockdown because once they life it, the virus will come back. Such countries are in serious trouble economically and also in terms of health. Countries like South Korea which rely more on rapid testing and contact tracing to knock down the virus whenever it reappears rather than lockdown will be able to avoid economic collapse because that strategy is more sustainable and can be continued until a vaccine is produced in sufficient quantities.

The economic lockdown approach to fighting the virus remains a short-sighted, unsustainable strategy that no country can rely on, because it robs countries of the very resources that they need to fight the virus. It is particularly unwise for poor countries which already have a shortage of resources to follow a “strategy“ that robs them of the limited resources that they have.

Where are the names of “Most” scientists who confessed on their death beds? Don’t be a lying Christian.






It was because of people like you that Jesus Christ came to die for, you are lucky we where not in the days of the old testament, God for don strike your head self, He is a ruthless God, eye for an eye, tooth for tooth, takes no bulshit life and dead means nothing to him He created them all.

Scientists who died believing in God last last
John von Neumann. Stephen hawking. Robert walsh. They are more I will send more to u later too
Atheist who later believed in God on there dead bed.
Buffalo bill cody. John Wayne. Dutch schultz. Christopher Hitchens.

My son or my brother I don't know which one to call you, even if you don't believe in God your inner heart should tell you there is absolute power that is above all powers, atlist something or somebody somewhere is controlling this world, you think you just sleep and wake up like that.

The current covid 19 statistics are only a fraction of the total reality. Hence, the antibody test idea.

Several positive cases in Europe that were not showing symptoms were even asked to self isolate at home. It's the serious and critical cases that are admitted at hospitals and ICU's

Are you sure you read and understood the content you sent me?

Here's an excerpt From the BBC link since you obviously read only the first paragraph.

The main use of an antibody test is to find out how many people have been infected.

The official figures are only a fraction of the total number - not everybody is getting tested and some people are being infected without developing symptoms.

Antibody tests will help answer questions such as how far and how easily the virus has spread and, crucially, how deadly it really is.

Vaccine is beyond rocket science. Vaccine is actually the virus that has been bio-engineered. It gives our immune system the needed info it needs to win it.
Nigeria don't have the history, training, facility to handle such level of molecular biology.

Goodnews, Microsoft and Bill Gate have monopolize and invested Billion in the vaccine industry, so vaccine would be out soon.

All you do is not answer my questions and then contradict yourself, you said religion does not claim to have any answers and I asked you didn’t religion claim to have answers of life after death instead of you to answer you started talking long irrelevant talks like pastors do.

Can we do this, I ask you a question and then you give me a direct answer? That way you don’t waste my time.

So back to my question does religion claim to know what happens after death or not. I need a direct answer.

Some of the people you mentioned on your list are not Scientists, do you know the difference between an atheist and scientist my friend? Example Christopher Hitchens was not a scientist, I am 100% sure of that. You are a liar Mr man.

Secondly they only people who claim these people confessed on their death bed are sites run by religious people their families have always denied it, just like pastors brainwash people with lies, you people have created sites to brainwash yourselves even when their families who were close to their death beds denied it.

Let me try to inform you how these things works. You need certain test procedures for various validations. Playing with Pathogens and Viruses is not joke , Even BSL-1 Labs are not available and you see people here talking about developing Cures?? You dare to do such things when you have BSL-4 or atleast BSL-3 Labs.
We barely have basic Chemistry lab in our universities able to do simple Titration test.

Forget BSL-3, No Country has BSL-2 Lab in this continent. I doubt if any country will be able to have BSL-2 in next 25 years.
(Exception are South Africa, (thanks to Whites), and French has theirs in Gabon to research local disease)

I dont have hope for BSL-4 Level for next 100 years. (USA has 8 , India has 6, Australia has 3, South Korea has 1 such labs)

And you are talking about Vaccine development for such thing? We dont have Genome Copying Systems and know how, First you need to map the Genome of any pathogens then you do Bio-molecular research.

Cure will come from India, US, Britain, Canada or Australia. We can just wish and pray fro their success. We people from this continent are indeed most unproductive and irrational humans on this planet, no wonder whole worlds laugh at us. Tell me you were in jolly mood while posting this. Comparison with India?

Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State:
NCDC is marketing #CoronaVirus and destroying our Lives.

Enough of this #Covid-19 Nonsense. 386 new cases? We have played fool enough!!!

And you have discharged 679... What did you give to this ones you discharged?

#Covid-19 is a war, and in times of war you get everyone prepared. Tell Nigerians what this ones discharged took and let everyone take it and be safe.

Is Corona more deadlier than Tuberculosis, Sars, Pneumonia, Aids?

Early detection saves the life; tell people how to boost their immune system and stop creating marchants out of Corona.

People are dying everyday for more serious ailments because they can't access hospitals. People have diabetes, kidney issues, liver issues, heart diseases, cancer, BP, labour complications, Hiv, Brain issues, Lung disease, etc, some need to go to other states to access hospital services... They are dying in numbers and no one is counting them because you are counting Corona.

We were told the symptoms of Corona are cough, catarh, difficulty in breathing, and the mortality rate is very minimal which we have seen in the results NCDC have been releasing.

These symptoms things people have been suffering from and we have been managing them well here in hospitals here in Nigeria, we have seen people with difficulties in breathing and they were treated.

Why are we marketing Corona in Nigeria?
Why are we harming ourselves intentionally?

Creating fears, hardship and tension on innocent citizens.

You promised 40,000 testing in 1 month, and this is almost 2months and you haven't tested 20,000

3000+ active cases and 679 discharged, which confirms mortality is less than 6%. Why then do you want to kill the entire country with fears.

Do you know how people struggle to survive in this country? Do you know the more hardship you are forcing on people by marketing Corona?

Now we will be forced to open our borders for importation of rice, can foods and all sorts of junks again cos we will be running out of food soon , at a time we were almost food sufficient.

Enough of this politics that NCDC is playing with our Lives.

This is the second month we Shutdown our offices with no means of livelihood, and you are just counting numbers for us daily.

Are you really concerned about our plight and survival?

First you took to every Tv and Radio station to market Corona. Every second they advertise Corona, to instil fear in people when you know this disease is not a death sentence.

There are thousand and one proactive ways of approaching this disease, but you want to make all the money you can make from it at the detriment of our economy, at the detriment of people's livelihoods.

The President have been struggling to get out economy up, and within a twinkle of an eye everything is back to zero, no state can boast of 1billion naira IGR.

This is planting season and no farmer is in d farm,no rice paddy for rice meals to process, nothing.

NCDC stop marketing Corona, stop raising tensions, stop destroying our economy.

Tell us how you managed the 679 you discharged, train doctors on it, and let hospitals manage Corona patients, Corona is not going to leave us even if there is a vaccine today.

People need to get back on their feet and live.
Enough of this Corona Nonsense!!! Corona is not a death sentence!!! Just like Cancer, early detection saves the life. Am tired menh...

You need to understand something here brother, we live by faith as Christians, we don't need to see to believe, everything that was written in the bible is for us to believe, have faith, know more about God and his son Jesus, there was no where in the bible that is written that religion knows is all, God is not interested in telling us about that. You need to read the whole of new testaments bible to see how life can be sweet on earth here and even after death, From time immemorial humans all over the world have always hang there faith on something just to feel good and feel there is life after death, so what about you?
