The recent mass deaths reported in Nigeria's Kano state have been linked to coronavirus by the head of the presidential task force.
Nasiru Sani Gwarzo told journalists that test results had confirmed that most of the recent deaths were because of coronavirus.
He said the team had visited grave sites and taken samples from bodies that were yet to be buried to ascertain the cause of death.
Mr Gwarzo said initial mapping showed that the virus may have spread as people visited the sick and attended burials.
"It is necessary for people of Kano to wake up from their slumber that this is a serious issue," he was quoted by local media as saying.
