Dude, try understand Covid-19 a bit better.

Africa has a young population. Even in the West, a lot of young people catch it without ever knowing.

Nigeria has life expectancy of about 52 years. Basically add up the ages of people who died and divide by the number of deaths say within a year. Very low compared internationally.

In countries where Covid-19 is killing many, most who die are over 75 years old. Of course death rate gradually increases from about 50/55. As illnesses gradually affect people more with increasing age. More illnesses increase Covid-19 severity and death risk.

If Nigeria had life expectancy of even 70 years (more old people around), deaths would be far more.

Early lock down helped too. in the first wave.

With the second wave in many countries and airports and borders still open, with our lax and corrupt system, some people might dodge covid-19 test and enter Nigeria. A second wave should be expected. Hopefully very modest.
But people above 70 years are not dying in droves in africa.
We have parents in that age group.

Question what percentage of population are over 70? Highest death rates is among old people in nursing homes in Europe. Typically over 80 years old. In nursing homes old people with dementia and other old age illness live together and Covid-19 spreads easily and deadly.

So although it affects many people over 70, the upper ages are by far the most affected.
In 9ja nanny people 60 years old can look much older due to poverty.

Just have a look at graphs showing ages of victims from UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain. USA appears to have younger people say from 60 due high level of obesity in US. Obesity is a big risk factor. Alongside diabetes, heart disease, etc.

Remember too that if Nigerians could travel visa free to America, Europe, China and such places, Covid-19 would have come into Nigeria from maybe 10 times more infected people arriving before we even realised it in March.

Our relative travel restrictions helped us. The more people infected, the more the chances of reaching more old folks.

You must put all factors together, though age and co-morbidities seem to play a big part in severity.

In cold countries people spend more time indoors, allowing infection spread. Bear in mind that winter flu, a common relative of Covid-19 already kills tens of thousands every winter in the west despite people over 50 or with chronic diseases being advised to take winter flu vaccine annually. Many take and many don't.

Flu virus is so clever that a new vaccine must be made every year.

Covid-19 could become a deadlier flu virus that needs a new vaccine every year.

My epistle is to let us focus on the science of it.

I knew the value would spring up again when we were having less than 50 cases with less than 3k active cases and the country was talking about the second wave of covid-19. Lol

Shey Dem use copy and paste do us for this country ni?

The governor of Lagos state his trying to justify why the palliative shouldn't have been stolen that's why they want to start cooking figure to justify the increase in covid for second wave.
If Kano can control their covid to zero what is keeping Lagos not too.
Or it kogi also from the moon.
I don't trust Lagos government

Government figure is certainly not accurate. Some people die but are not in government figures.
Of recent two family members died. Middle age.
I suspected corona.

I am.very sure Nigeria federal government is very crazy.Where are the patients , lies everywhere. They should tell us the name of the school and reveal the identity of their children who caught covid. They are trying to copy Europe who had second wave. Tell me during end Sars, how many observed covid 19 measure. Any attempt to lock any where down now, will be end SARS part 2 .

Hoodlum should take over all govt house and offices and private home. Awon olee. The are generating random numbers

They're propping up the figures so they'll get justifiable reasons to activate a second lock down to punish Nigerians for coming out to protest and challenge them.
No. It's because they are hearing about second wave in Western countries. You know it is a must for them to copy anything bad from abroad.

Now, my question is; where are the patients?

Govt data is probably not as reliable as it should be but if huge number of people were going down with respiratory problems way more than usual, doctors and even ordinary people would have noticed.

Things have worked in our favour so far. Long may it last.

If we go on another lock down, then the country go kuku scatter for protests, lootings, stealings and killings, we can not afford to b locked down anymore, no solution yet, no vaccine, so locking down for what and for how long?

In other countries they show the names and faces of those that contract this covid-19 and even the ones that die from it. Our own we only see figures and fake news all over.
