This is not getting funny anymore abeg.

Lord pls heal the world

Lagos na wa


All i can say is...................It is well

You are on your own

But for a person like me struggling to feed once a day... Seeing this picture gives one a funny thought.[/quote]Don't even pray for it, cos ordinary fever alone makes some people lost appetite

Covid-19 is never a death sentence for the victims always running after testing positive, be isolated, take your drugs, follow medical instructions, and above all pray for recovery.

For the remaining of us.
Stay safe, sooner we shall overcome.

This is no Joke anymore, Coronavirus is real and we all have to take precaution especially now that Lockdown has been relaxed in some part of the nation, corona is no friend of rich or poor, black or white. It can be prevented by Regularly cleaning of our hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or washing hands with soap and water. REASON is because Washing your hands with soap and water or using alcohol-based hand rub kills viruses that may be on your hands.

Maintaining at least (3 feet) distance between yourself and others though might sound funny but REASON is if someone coughs, sneezes, or speaks they might spray small liquid droplets from their nose or mouth which may contain virus. If you are too close, you can breathe in the droplets, including the COVID-19 virus if the person has the disease.

We should avoid crowded places. REASON is people come together in crowds, you are more likely to come into close contact with someone that has COIVD-19 and it is more difficult to maintain physical distance of 3 feet.

Covid is REAL but ITS NOT a death sentence.

It is well

Hmm, Ile aiye, ile asan. Ground has swallowed up so many good people.

Tears keeping rolling out of my eyes uncontrolable flashing back and while reading some comments here, I'm short of words

feed the birds with it and eat the birds

There is no love sincerer than the love of food, feed the needy and they will remember you for good.

By Saturday, the latest figures for Covid-19 pandemic are up: 1,095 confirmed, 32 dead and 208 discharged. The last part is proving to be some contradiction for many people: how do you say 208 have recovered and been discharged from hospital for a disease that is said to have no cure?

Coronavirus is a respiratory virus, and most viruses of this kind are self-limiting. It means they have a finite period in your body before they wear themselves out, or your immune system contains them. When that happens, you recover. For a person, that means your immune chews up the virus so it is no longer able to infect new cells. For a community, that means the virus is unable to find new people to infect. Treatment in this case has two aims: one is to relieve symptoms and make you comfortable; two is to keep you alive by supporting the organs the virus has attacked [in this case, your lungs, which is why oxygen and ventilators are needed].

The treatment is not a cure. For one, self-limiting viral illnesses resolve on their own, like the cold and catarrh you have nearly every year. The cough medicines you only ease the chesty cough, and help you expel phlegm easier. They don’t attack the virus behind the cold.

Your immune system produces antibodies that do that, and once that mother of all battles is won, you bounce back. And your body becomes stronger for another battle should the virus return. And then again, because viruses mutate rapidly to fit into every new environment, it is difficult to spend years developing a medicine to target them. By the time you get the medicine, they may have mutated into a form that’s resistant to the wonder drug. Hence the best treatment is prevention—social distancing, hygiene and modifications to break the chain of transmission. The other is vaccination to teach your immune system to recognise and fight the virus when it comes around again.

But if you do get infected, you can be treated in a way that’s called “supportive treatment”. It is different from “definitive treatment”. Say you have typhoid fever. Your doctor gives you antibiotics that directly target and kill the Salmonella typhii bacteria responsible for the typhoid. Once the bacteria is eliminated, your body’s “mechanic’s garage” takes over, repairing the damage done and you recover. That’s definitive treatment.

In supportive treatment, as is the case for Lassa fever, Ebola and Covid-19, treatment does not eliminate the virus but relieves the symptoms and support the organs already damaged while waiting for your immune system to contain the virus. So, you get cough syrup to suppress cough, paracetamol to cool fevers, painkillers to suppress pain. Because coronavirus attacks the lungs, oxygenators help raise the oxygen levels in your blood and ventilators take over the breathing function of your lungs, while waiting for your immune system to return from the battlefield. When the immune system returns, having won the war by containing the virus, and you are still alive through supportive treatment, you have recovered. But if the damage done by the virus is too much and the supportive treatment is not able to keep you alive to see the end of the battle between your immune and the virus, then it is RIP. This battle can last two to six weeks depending on, among other things, the health of your immune system, which is why that is your greatest arsenal against Covid-19. The other things include age, sex differences in immune response, gaps in immune system, race, the dose of the virus entering the body, the strain of the virus, the presence of pre-existing conditions (like diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, cancer) and many other unknowns. They all factor into why the disease is mild for some and deadly for others. The severity is classed into different forms based on how the virus attacks the respiratory system. Asymptomatic—you get infected but show no symptoms and end up being a mere carrier spreading the infection to others. Mild—you get the virus but have just regular upper respiratory tract infection—sneezing, mild fever, cough—and recover with or without supportive treatment. Moderate—you get lower respiratory tract infection, with pneumonia and need some supportive treatment but you may not be sick enough to need oxygen therapy. Severe—you get up to pneumonia and get so sick you need oxygen. Critical—it is so bad you develop acute respiratory distress syndrome; your lungs fail and you need a ventilator to mechanically breathe—and a full array of intensive care unit, without which you may not survive. Yes, there is no cure, and yes, it is your immune system that clears the virus and relieves the symptoms. And yes, if all this care is provided, even without a definitive cure for coronavirus disease, you can still pull through to recovery.

Following the continuous rise in the COVID-19 cases in Nigeria, the 36 state governor have agreed to enforce a 14-day lockdown to halt the spread of the disease. The Federal Government has said that the results of the COVID-19 tests carried out on the 15-member Chinese medical team that came into the country a little over two weeks ago are not ready. As governments around the world fight hard to halt the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, there are about 15 countries on earth without any reported COVID-19 cases. The World Health Organisation (WHO) Regional Office for Africa says the number of COVID-19 deaths in the WHO African Region has increased to 1, 200. Meanwhile the death toll in Britain from the coronavirus outbreak neared 20,000 on Friday as the government faced calls for greater transparency for its exit strategy from stringent social distancing measures. The health ministry said 684 more people had died in the 24-hour period to 1600 GMT on Thursday, taking the number of deaths for COVID-19 in hospital to 19,506. The figure is more than the 616 reported the previous day and comes after the government claimed the virus had hit its peak and was trending downwards.

I have ask Google

See their response to me below:

The main way Google generates its revenue is through a pair of advertising services called Ads and AdSense. With Ads, advertisers submit ads to Google that include a list of keywords relating to a product, service or business. When a Google user searches the Web using one or more of those keywords, the ad appears on the SERP in a sidebar. The advertiser pays Google every time a user clicks on the ad and is directed toward the advertiser's site.

Google has multiple ways of generating revenue beyond private investment or selling shares of its stock. Google uses several methods to partner with merchants and advertisers: Google Pay, Google Ads, Google AdSense and Google Analytics are some.

Cosmoros with a Population of 800K , God is wonderful

Ok

Thanks for d quote, it drew my attention and I made correction, life goes on

NorthPrince:
To heir is human??!!!!!!!

Good move from the governor, to err is human forgiveness is divine. Some journalist should also refrain from spreading fake news all in the name of journalism. Fake news create panic and fear which is more dangerous than corona

Ok

All we ask from God is to let coronavirus be a thing of the past soon. I pray the pandemic will get a quick solution and heal the whole world of their sickness soon, all this we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

I read they are American citizens and I'm not sure Apc can induced them to protest.

helinues:
No I am a Nigerian. May I ask you, who are the people that have been protesting in USA lately? Are they induced by Apc?

Please just curious, are you a citizen of Italy or USA?

I just asked cos I heard USA gave 1,200$ stimulus package to their citizens and I wanted to confirm from you if you got yours

helinues:
And this is only about Nigeria right?

I guess Apc are the one also governing USA and Italy

Minus me ooo, but truth be told our leaders/looters don't care about the citizens

Guess work means the process of making a guess when you do not know all the facts

My own guess, somebody somewhere that happens to be a big politician that attended Abba Kyari funeral will self issolate himself.
Sence no go kill me sha

I support shopping for Ramadan but at the same time odikwa dangerous considering the rate at which active cases keep rising in Kano, so it's better the state don't relax the lockdown, make provision of foods and beverages for your people by dropping it on their door steps like we hear they do it in abroad, it won't cost you your job, but wetin I even know, this is 9ja where our leaders don't care how the citizens cope

Anybody can beg, even our looters beg at the end...lol
