Everything you said would have made sense if u can back it up with evidences

I wonder how some of you will just sit down at home and makeup theories that doesn't add up. The Spanish flu happened when the enmity of ww1 was at its peak, yet no one suspected it to be a bio weapon.

How difficult do you think it is to differentiate a naturally existing virus from a bio-engineered one.
go and watch the 2018 Korean series my secret terrius..episode 10. ..they already name the virus coronavirus..and they talked about how it affects d lungs and d period of 14days before symptoms..d virus was created..d

This is the way to go. We are losing valuable time to the virus already. If we can scale up testing, we can identify those with the virus early enough and isolate them from the rest of the population and contain the spread.

I can't believe we are making the same mistake the trump led administration made by restricting Covid-19 test to just a few agencies.
We surely need to ramp up our testing facilities. Most of the donation made by philanthropists should go into ungrading labs that can do PCR tests.
Shockingly, this tests can be perfected as quickly as possible.

Funny how you people are always envious of doctors! Only in Nigeria!!!

Is it not better to decentralize the testing so the country don't lose other probable cases to the communities? How many people can NCDC test? Are they not only testing polithiefcians and their families and a few celebrities? Is that what ya all want? Besides, how will doctors cash in on this when they are not saying let doctors test? They just want the tests decentralized so other accredited centers can help speed it up and reach more people

Man brace up... Corona virus is a family of viruses that can be contracted from animals by humans they are also called zoonotics... SARS is a Corona virus, MERS is a corona virus and yes they are all respiratory infections so they will affect the lungs.

Don't base your theories on what you see in movies. You are better than that.

But then, testing for the COVID-19 virus is by RTrPCR. How many private facilities can afford it? Who will pay for primers and Taq enzymes? The rapid kits seen everywhere have a sensitivity rate of less than 40%. Decentralizing testing may not be a good idea at this time until we can have kits with at least 97% sensitivity and specificity and cheaper quantitative assays.

Coronaviruses are actually a large family of genetically related viruses with similar pathogenicity. They present similar symptoms and similar incubation period. It's just that COVID 19 is a new strain of a previously existing virus. SARS, HN bird flu and MERS belong to this class

Your so called response fron science comes from some of the religious people who are using the brain implanted inside them by God. All glory goes to God who can create without any material, just by speaking and it is done. Man can only recreate but cannot actually create. They are depending on God's material creation to get things done. Moreover, the name of Jesus is still very higher than all names, no matter which ever view you take. Sometimes, God allow certain things to be and the son's of men like you set their gaze to make mockery of His power and abilities.

I don't blame the doctor though
The statement is bated on ignorance
Testing for covid 19 is not all about having PCR machine
How many labs have biosafety level 3
He don't know the virus is first harvested
And transcribed from RNA to DNA
Not up to 5 labs can do it in Nigeria..
Listen to NMA and hold on for an overwelhming outbreak.

Good one. There some private laboratories that have the the capacity to run the test. NCDC should disburse funds, reagents and kits to them to run the tests for free for every Nigerian.

Every General hospital laboratory should be upgraded with the machines, reagents and Medical Laboratory Scientists (with life insurance) and stand by power. Create awareness on TV, radio, newspaper, send town criers in the rural areas and ask people to come for free for the tests.

AMLSN should be the one releasing these statements by now. The leadership of AMLSN is so lethargic, unlike their Ghanian counterparts. Their PRO should be fired.


Yes indeed; in fact this is a very good opportunity for them come out and to assert their legally backed professional autonomy after years of marginalisation and domination by medical doctors - it is very ironic that NMA is the one now making this call, giving its role in the subjugation of medical laboratory scientists.

I've been waiting for AMLSN to even release press statements as an health professional association and educate Nigerians on this scourge. What better time if not now?
Scientists in Ghana, Cameroon and Kenya have been proactive, releasing statements, educating their people on the Covid-19 issue but AMLSN as big as they are with all the money (dues) at their disposal can't even release a simple online press release. Very lethergic In a battle where their members are right in the middle of the whole chaos?

Their PRO must either be fired or be made to lose the next election.

The reason why all religions are waiting for science is that Corona virus is not a natural attack, it an engineered attack.

The people behind the attack wish to cash out selling the cure.

They already succeeded with Cancer, HIV, SARS, Ebola.

Pasteur Institute in Senegal was able to develop their ten minutes kit after getting a hold of the genome sequence which was openly made available on the internet.
First set of testing kits used in the early outbreak in honk Kong were supplied by a home medical lab owned by a German microbiologist.
If resources are pulled together, we can actually get large number of labs upgraded and made to follow strict testing procedures.
We are in a race against time and we cannot afford to wait on other countries who have their own to cater for.
If only we had invested in medical research before now.
