Nigeria’s capital, Abuja, has recorded three cases of COVID-19, The PUNCH can confirm.

The PUNCH learnt that the index case is an official of the Federal Inland Revenue Service and was one of the passengers on British Airways’ flight that landed on March 13, 2020.

It was learnt that two other cases of COVID-19 were confirmed.

A medical doctor told The PUNCH that the three patients had been moved to the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital.

He said, “The bad news is that three samples from the FCT (Federal Capital Territory) suspected cases tested positive for coronavirus. We have got in touch with the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital and we are moving them immediately. We will give more details as soon as possible concerning their flights, contact tracing and other protocols.

That's bad thing right? Well done Buhari u successfuly got ur wish

Damn!

This is serious.

While we are all still angry the Govt took the whole time in the world to ban flights from the high risk countries, it is only wise we hope they speed up contact tracing ASAP. Even if not for the Brain-dead politicians that domicile in the country capital, at least for the safety of our relatives, families and friends who reside in Abuja too.

But then again with the FCT doctors on strike, I hope the virus doesn't spread before it's contained.

This country is just 4cked up mehn.

Now that the worst fear has been confirmed, efforts should be geared towards preventing escalation.

People should know that the available facilities for quarantine ( if any) will be grossly insufficient should this situation gets out of hand.

Worstill, only the rich and connected will even get the attention if the virus spreads.

Let's do our bit to curtail the spread. Social distancing is the way to go.

I hope his office is near aso Rock

Truth is, Nigerians do not go to hospital. We self-medicate, at least the majority of us do.

As such, we really might never know if this virus is spreading but the persons involved are self-medicating and casting demons out, instead of self-quarantining and reaching out to the hospitals.

The government really needs to begin a phased lockdown and quarantining of cities.

Total movement cannot be stopped, but a ban on intercity movement can be implemented for 3 weeks or so during which time borders will be closed down.

That gives us time and opportunity to detect, isolate and treat anyone infected with the virus.

After that, we can begin to open our borders with a thorough testing of all going through it.

Ha!
If it's in Abuja
That means no place is a save haven
Let me trace my root before my village people close border

Don't be surprised those who tested positive are doing very fine and can withstand the virus just like any flu.

But the panic mode we've been put on would make us think hell is here.

Going straight into aso rock.

Hmmmm

To those who voted the wrong people.....this is the result of vote wasting. Nigeria had a chance of recording very few cases but now its spreading.

Administer hydroxylchloroquine and azithromycin ...
They will be healed within 6 days and test negative at day 7

Ok

Senseless statement.

All hands must be on deck to safeguard everyone not only Christians.

International flights should be shut down immediately if possible.

It's getting more "panicking"
