Can people out their sentinents aside especially with this covid 19 . Yes we get it you don't like ganduje, or the sociopolitics of Kano

Luckydubby7:
. Let them keep deceiving and lying to themselves. If someone complain now some people here we start referring us to what is happening in US, Spain, Italy etc. Show me Nigeria Covid 19 Patients.

Show me the 20k that tested positive in US yesterday

Discombulator:
At the end of the day we're going to resume our normal way of life cos this virus aiiint going nowhere.malaria kills far more and we're not locking no one down.
The only problem I see is how easy it is to spread,that might be a decider for our future.

While yeah till a vaccine possibly arrives we might have to learn to live with it but for now we need to suppress it so we can continue with our lives

Scanfrost:
I swear only if this shitty government shared money for Nigerian citizen!! They would have stayed in their houses!! Now just see!! Mehn have said it long ago!! Its happy new year 2021! This year is gone!! Now am beginning to think this virus is AIRBORNE!! Not all this handshake ish!

I think it's short distance airborne. I heard breathing the same air can transmit the virus. What I want to really know is can one infect another when he/she just got immediately

u11ae1013:
they are suspending it because they had no choice, no one can control it

and much less one that cannot cushion the lockdown

humblebobojay:
Hmmmmmm this is the worstest part of it 300+ a day and am very sure they will soon find 500+ per day trust me

If we increase our testing capacity yes

Godformeeeeeee:
Today figure go high tomorrow e go reduce,so inconsistent,so how do we plot graph with these inconsistent figures let alone determining were the graph start flattening.

Very big issue with our test inconsistency

ghostwritter:
It is either the government lock us all down and provide us with what to eat OR they should just leave us alone and let us risk the virus by sourcing for our own food. Las las many of us no go die.

at this point nothing. Unless there's extremely strict lockdown(probably involving the military), people aren't going back into their homes just like that

Lockdown again when the damage has been done . The window we had to curtail this may have closed. I pray I'm just exaggerating sha

I don't get it. Government can't own testing centres or what What about the ones in Government universities and teaching hospitals . Are we really serious about this thing?

tetralogyfallot:
leave dem. dem go c result for livescores this weekend.

Your moniker is making me remember anatomy . I wonder when I'll be a student again

WaffenSS:
Viruses are so small that the only way to see them is via electron microscopes, which are extremely complex and expensive devices.

How do you hope the traditional herbalists will be able to see the virus and test the efficacy of their potions?

How would they check its effects on vital organs to ensure safety for human consumption?

There's no drug in the world that directly kills the virus, most therapies seek to degrade the virus' ability to penetrate human cells and thus prevent it from manufacturing copies of itself. This requires sophisticated knowledge and medical devices to test.

So how would some village babalawo with his herbacious cocktail of randomness figure out how the virus works and how to attack it?

They won't answer . It's African herbs this, African cure that, forefathers then

SmallmebigGod:
You are have been tricked by Madagascar publicity stunt. In a treatment center I know here, all patient get the active ingredient of that herb which is actually in our antimalarial. , it works for malaria doesn't work for covid. I am happy their president claim he want to do a trial on it now. Let's see the outcome. The claim of no death can not be attributed to that drug alone if the drug helped at all. Rwanda, as at the last time I checked doesn't have covid 19 related death and they are not using the Madagascar wonder as at then likewise few other countries

It looks like Madagascar wants to cash out cos I don't know how they managed to create so much fuss about their supposed cure. If the world cared this much why didn't we bother Vietnam that has also recorded 0 deaths

Funjosh:
I don't know if most of them just say all these just to catch fun or it's the way they reasons.


Some of them are waiting for videos and images of people in ICU before they can believe ncdc whereas 90% of cases recorded persons in Nigeria have moderate to mild symptoms. God will help us

I like how Nigerians make noise about not following the whites only to look up to them and in this case ICU videos .

Abbeylanre15:
This thing is confusing.. COVID-19 has no cure but people are recovering. Aren't we serving a wonderful god? D only scare is that it's highly contagious,if not he for be malaria younger brother

Its not a death sentence! People recover while some don't!

Olarewaju89:
The one in US are Corona, but here in Nigeria is call malaria parasites. Yes

Because we haven't registered 10k deaths yeah

bluefilm:
How do you know that the disease arrived Africa late?

Are you the one transporting the disease from place to place?

Oga I was going by when the first cases were confirmed

SocialJustice:
So because they want to make you happy, they should say a drug that isn't working is working?

Don't blame them bro, we're tired of the entire thing . So tired we forget some things like that follow due process. But seriously while what Madagascar is putting up seems commendable i wonder why we also didn't quiz Vietnam also for their zero deaths

Galactico4ever:
Africa is doing well when compared to europe,asia and america ,despite the poor healthcare system,dilapidated medical infrastructure and inadequate medical and health personnell of most countries

We try but let's remember it arrived here later than other continents

Commendable but we need more indigenous research done not all this sub-prototypes. Can't they work on developing innovative test kits

Christmasdon:
SO NO PERSON CAN COME UP WITH A CURE.

Viral diseases are hard cure

Aystarz:
This only depicts data of confirmed cases from the 1st of May, not the number of testing done since March. How about we have daily 'testing statistics' of Lagos, Ogun and FCT from the 26th of March, when Jack Ma's kits landed in the country? Not confirmed cases, only number testing done since then.

https://ncdc.gov.ng/diseases/sitreps/?cat=14&name=An%20update%20of%20COVID-19%20outbreak%20in%20Nigeria
Yes I agree state breakdown is needed

Aystarz:
Did the NCDC disclose how many tests it carried out yesterday? The day before or the day before that

NCDC may not be in charge of the country's finances, but nothing stops it/and the Health ministry from being accountable with the money spent so far.

Look at their dates. You should also check their situation report site for their daily updates as new cases get confirmed https://ncdc.gov.ng/diseases/sitreps/?cat=14&name=An%20update%20of%20COVID-19%20outbreak%20in%20Nigeria

dingbang:
People just come in here and show their stupidity.

Here and twitter. It's tiring

Jarus:
I was tested and came out negative, sir.

Same kits.

You should be among the first to comment. Maybe it'll tame some of these corona naysayers a bit.

Aystarz:
The secrecy is totally uncalled for. This issue was discussed yeaterday on Nigeriainfofm by Hamza, leader of CODE/followthemoney Initiative . Corruption is the only reason NCDC will not disclose the number oof testing to Nigerians. Hell, they wouldn't even let anyone in on how they have been spending the donations received so far.

They do disclose number of tests done . Concerning donations, ncdc isn't in charge of Nigeria's finances is it?

recklesslove:
Just yesterday the Federal Government monitoring committee said 80%dont need any form of treatment. Una dey follow news at all? Fear go just kill una for nothing

They still need to be isolated

DonMekino:
as it is now, lockdown will not help us much again, we just hope a cure surfaces asap, and for all those branding their cures, govt should just try them on the patients, as far as the ministry of health refuses to try the meds produced locally to check their efficacy, it means govt is hiding smth or there are more sinister moves than meets the eye....now ppl are shouting and saying the Lockdown should not have been lifted, but many families with kids to cater for have started suffering....and govt cannot help, so they have to follow the unfortunate option

My thoughts exactly. Unless they're ready to lockdown Lagos and the rest of the country till year end or if a miraculous vaccine shows up, the graving damage has been done already. I just feel for we students who are going to pay the price of an inept government and it's people

Sunisonflex39:
please how do we know all those test kits have not been sprayed with corona virus before shipment to Africa.

I am saying, an healthy person will go for a test, when they use the test kit on him that was already sprayed with corona, the test will come out positive and the person gets infected with the virus..

what am I even saying.. that Tanzania case calls for deep thinking..

well what do u expect when our govt are bunch of "yes men" to the whites. them no dey use eye see dollars, IMF donate, World Bank donate, WHO donate, late Abacha Donate, China donate.
very soon akawo women go donate..

this govt are governing in the nonsense and in the rubbish.

Just say you don't believe corona is in Nigeria . We understand

Seun:
I wish we could see the number of tests conducted on each day broken down by state so we can actually interpret these figures.

If a state is testing more people, a large number of new cases is not so alarming. If a state tested almost nobody, a low number is not reassuring.

This. Especially for this states still recording very low numbers

Gemineye:
Nonsense where are these people coming from. We need to question the efficacy of the testing kits or the system rather. These cases might be coming from places where the lock down order was adhered to. How come!!!

Abeggg

Lockdown can stop or limit the spread IF strictly adhered to and authorities act fast and do the needful . In Nigeria's case we had not finished mapping out who and who had the virus, before people started moving again. So this community spreading will go on and on. In fact I dread next week

LyfeJennings:
I'm presently in one of the isolation centers and truth be told. These guys are trying. It won't be proper to show pictures of individuals. It's more dignifying in the manner they choose to represent the figures

Nigerians acting like Nigeria is too big to get corona . Like just 3000 cases we're acting up. I wonder what the Italians and Americans would say about this
