Switzerland discards the total lockdown of its population; goes for mass testing and fast treatment;

https://www.google.com/amp/s/asiatimes.com/2020/03/why-france-is-hiding-a-cheap-and-tested-virus-cure/


So why are all the governments in Nigeria pushing for a formula that is known to fail and cause deaths of thousands of people.

Is there something we do not know?


Lockdown means nothing without testing, isolating and treating infected ones.

Without Mass Testing, the Coronavirus Pandemic Will Keep Spreading

Countries such as South Korea that test thousands of people per day have slowed the outbreak. Other nations must adopt Seoul’s model before it’s too late.

The key to South Korea’s success has been speed and an early push toward mass testing, rigorous contact tracing, and mandatory quarantine for anyone near a carrier of the virus.

The country, with a population of 51 million, tests more than 20,000 people a day at more than 600 testing sites nationwide, while integrating apps that not only track individuals if they have tested positive, but also warn them if they might have been exposed to a known case.

Testing involves more money and commitment to treatment and general well-being of the people, but Lockdown is cheaper for them...they don't really want to waste their loot on the masses undecided

So what happened to the 15 Billion released by President Buhari? Is that not enough money to secure testing kits and provide appropriate treatments for infected ones.

From my calculations, other Nigerians have donated over 8 billion and these greedy politicians are telling us it is too expensive to test.

Such blatant lies.

What about States also, are they saying they are cash strapped to test? Yet we have N37 billion for renovation of the house of assembly. Billions for a fake school feeding program.

When we criticized the use of hand held infra-red thermometers in place of actual testing by NCDC at the airports as useless they called us names.

If they couldn't carry out tests, they should have insisted on test results for all intending passengers that was less than 24hrs prior to arriving Nigeria. But they did nothing.

By next 2-3 weeks there will be an exponential explosion in number of cases in Nigeria.

It is that time that they will say ONLY mass vaccination can save us.


You will then have to comply with the Govt's mass vaccination plan which Bill Gates' is waiting to fully fund.

Mass testing the best weapon against Covid-19

Mass testing could be one of the most cost-effective public health interventions that governments could implement. Indeed, as noted by the director-general of the WHO, Tedros Adhanom, “Asking people to stay at home and shutting down population movement is buying time and reducing the pressure on health systems. But on their own, these measures will not extinguish epidemics.... Aggressive measures to find, isolate, test, treat and trace are not only the best and fastest way out of extreme social and economic restrictions, they’re also the best way to prevent them.”

Mass testing allows for early detection of infection in individuals so that these individuals can be isolated before they spread the infection to others. This strategy was crucial to South Korea’s containment of an outbreak of MERS in 2015. With Covid-19, South Korea again employed aggressive mass testing efforts followed with contact tracing and isolation, and so far has been one of a handful of countries to see a decline in the number of new infections.

There might be a conspiracy going on in Nigeria because the foolish actions are just too much to go as mistakes.

From refusal to stop incoming flights, to refusals to Quarantine returnees for 24-21 days and regularly test them, to refusals to test returnees and now refusals for mass testing, preaching lockdown and stay at home.

Worst part is that all the so called critics have lost their voices. From Moghalu, Durotoye, Ezekwesili, Fani Kayode, Falana and all the hosts of Men of God.

Shocking.

SharpJoe, all you need to do is take all preventive measures to avoid getting infected.

If you do (God forbid) insist on being treated with Chloroquine.

Do not trust the govt doctors. They may even be giving patients placebos and treating others with experimental drugs.

The Pfizer scandal of testing Meningitis drugs on Children in Kano only happened because Nigerian govt officials were part of the testing and cover up.

Another helpful tip, to avoiding the virus spreading to from your mouth to your lower respiratory region (Lungs) where it does more damage, is to simply take as much alkaline fruits like Lemon.

No virus can survive in an alkaline state.

You can gaggle every morning and night with Baking Soda.

Do you know these simple proven home treatments for the common flu was deleted here on NL.

Goes to show that the powers that be who control this site want the virus to spread.

Stay safe.

Bill gate has nothing to do with this.
He doesn't have a vaccine for testing.

If you have been following the news, you will realize that most countries reaction
is to do nothing or do little. That has nothing to do with non-existent vaccines.

Remember the Ebola outbreak?
The US was actually hiding the potential vaccine and will not share it.

You are probably confusing regular paid pharmaceutical testing in normal time with emergency
case where a vaccine can be a game-changer economically.

If a working vaccine is developed today, Trump will keep it for US only until all their cases are resolved.

The lockdown will only be extended even more until people get tired, lockdown is not the solution it only buys you time. Nigerian government thinks the virus will disappear during the lockdown. I'm sorry for our leaders.

I tried to contribute to a solution here, and I was banned. I simply laughed, because I know cases will explode in the coming weeks even with the lockdown and their will be panic and unrest. Obviously Nairaland mods are not only stupid but ignorant. We've always fed for ourselves in this country, we provide our own basic amenities, electricity, job, water. Nigerians know they shouldn't depend on the government! Now we're in health crises, people who tried getting tested described it as nearly impossible or selective testing. How then will a common man who gets the virus supposed to survive it? We have to do what we have to do, they keep deleting all treads that share any remedy or solution like we're supposed to wait for the government, same government that neglected us all this years. People in ICU are complaining of being neglected and not Fed. All I can say is do all you can not to get infected, and if you do and can't get tested or treated search Reddit for solutions.
