The things we often take for granted are very important.
See how many people are looking for their sense of smell and taste.
After all this is over, let's learn to appreciate the little things.

My sense of smell was down for some days. I had mild catarrh sha after one heavy rain like that...

As for my sense of taste, that one is still intact. I regretted it the day I put a little too much salt in my food, I no fit chop am grin


But on a serious note, I think many of us have caught the virus and recovered. I had mild chills recently and it went away before I could complete the dose of malaria tablets.

We already have herd immunity in Africa.
at least you had catarrh, my nose was very free

It was 100% COVID 19 symtoms. but you and your wife's immunity over powered it to submission. Good news is you cant get inffected again for life.

You need to see how our Extended families were scared. I don’t even know what to think. If we had it or not. It is well.

Before the first lock down started, I rushed through 2 different big markets in and around my state. During the first week of lock down I developed serious cough, terrible sore throat, that I can't swallow anything. Before I Knew it my 72 year old mum started her own and my 11 year old son. I was scarred to death. To prevent others I cut onions and filled the whole house. I started boiling dogoyaro leaf and covering with it. I drank hot scent leaf water. I treated malaria and typhoid. After about 2 weeks all of us became well. As in very healthy. My mum recovered faster than me. Though she is not the sick sick type. It could be ordinary malaria but bcoz Coro in in town, fear wanted to kill me.

I think its cos the average nigerian has gone tru a lot.

Thats why the virus doesnt seem to affect us that much
Nigerians are made of very strong stuff. The sun in Lagos alone is enough to build strong immunity against coro

I've recovered though.

man,I told someone almost everyone in Nigeria has/had coronavirus and already recovered the guy thought I was bullshiting.



Well....not to alarm anyone but I know lots of people who have complained of the same thing after having mild malaria and now fully recovered.



They should just open everywhere and stop the lockdown. We Africans are too strong for coro grin
if care is not taken,second wave of infection will occur......Nigerians need to believe there is corona in naija

Wow. Interesting . About a week ago I fell ill and went to the hospital . After all tests they didn’t find anything so they gave me antibiotic .Then my wife fell ill . She was given malaria drugs and When my case wasn’t improving, I took malaria drugs too .

Then she lost her sense of smell and taste. Then I had slight difficulty breathing . When I took a deep breath, my upper chest would hurt. We were both down for a little over a week. I’ve never experienced such in my life . Family doctor said it wasn’t coro sha. Though we are better now .

Could it be something else was going around? Health practitioners in the house over to you
u believe the doctor?....that was corona.ur case is the more severe on this thread..protect yourself to avoid second wave of infection

Almost everyone in my family and church have lost their sense of smell and taste and recovered recently....which is a symptom of corona virus.

Are we all infected and recovering on our own?
after all there is a 98% recovery rate.
Contact NCDC Asap, cases like this need to be documented for studies, more information about the virus will help scientists develop a vaccine faster.

Don't worry, a doctor told me it might be covid19 and dat 1 will recover gradually.

Ohh I've just been shaking it off of me since three days now. Been living fears for days now. Only this morning I ate something and got the taste. Thank you God.

Don't allow fear into your heart bro. By His Grace you're shaking it off soon! Rest well, take fruits and stay away from chilled drinks

It started like malaria but it wasnt ... It was something different... Had a sore throat and a serious urge to cough...

At a point lost sense of taste... Evrything tasted like water.. Im in lagos

Where are those that says Coronavirus isn't real, let them enter this thread. Where are the 5G exponents, I dnt think most people here have ever seen the 5G masts.
Am so grateful to God that we fought it off, imagine if everyone wit these symptoms had died?
Remember, that u can always contact it again if exposed. Now for the recoverees, pls isolate and dnt spread it the more.

Seriously guy's have been having same symptoms, but mine no cough, no joint pains. Just find it hard to breath and when I breath it Hurt's. Like hot air, when I stay near smoke or choked up place. My breathing because more hard. It started last week and I still feel the same way but am getting better tho. I think most of us have the virus but don't really speak out. I also have people complaining on the same issues
