Make we discuss this matter here. Does coronavirus actually kill as media paint it or is it as sinister as the media claim. Now let us face fact.

We're going to crash our economy on a virus that has a 97% survival rate. Shut down the world because of this stupid virus because even Hiv/aids is still a senior virus to coronavirus
The media has done their job.

But you know the virus is spreading fast?

A virus that has killed over 900 people in the US today,
Do you know this virus is capable of killing millions of Nigerians?

The biggest threat is mutation.

If the virus mutates, then it becomes another problem for the world.

The issue with this virus is not really about how deadly it is, rather it's because its new and people don't really have a good understanding of it.

Secondly, all major diseases have always inflicted Africans. This time around, it's the developed countries that are feeling the pinch of covid 19. Oyibo no dey carry life play unlike us who don't value human life.

Op u r right.

The Fear is the worst of it all.
Why do i need to fear? Have u ever felt its better to be infected thru either needle injection or bite or sexual but nay this one will just Secretly enter ur system without any instant symptoms.

another thing is the mode of spreading is fast and cheap. Hence if everyone is infected, who will take care of who? Facilities to admit the patient?



So the virus need to be feared and govt approach is the best. Stay home and avoid story that touch

the covid 19 using your analogy of recovery rate of 97%.it means out of 100 infected people blah blah blah.
the key word is infection
if you have an area of 1000000 peopy and 30% get infected.300000 people will be hospitalized and the remaining 700000 are still at risk of been infected.
it is highly contagious with implications
if the same area has 1500 medical staffs,20000 beds with 100 respiratory machines. 280000 are at risk of dying.
and if the medical structure finally collapse as a result of system collapse.
the remaining 700000 are now at risk of been wiped out

The real survival rate is much lower than 97%.
When the medical system is overwhelmed, the survival rate may drop further to around 80%.
We still don't have enough information.
Are you willing to sacrifice let us say about 10% of your compatriot?

Do you think the families of the 10% will simply forget and join the economy?

Simple maths the virus has a mortality rate of 3% ...if we all get infected ...that's 3% of our population would die ...that's 6 million people

OP, I got your point. But considering the virus is airborne and also spread fast with great speed it's something of high priority.

Example: sample population of 100m, without proper management 10% of the population can contact within few weeks. With 3% death rate, we are looking at 300k death within few weeks.

Now the rate is at 5% worldwide:- 1m cases with 50k deaths

Covid19 is deadly for two reasons:

1. 3% is pretty high for a respiratory disease.

2. Most importantly, Covid19 is highly infectious. If you have a population of 200 million and just half of them are infected. Then you are talking about 300,000 people dying. Also, do not forget the strain that would be put on the health care system. Many more people with other illness will also die because the health system has been overwhelmed by Covid19.

Everybody is focusing on only the severity of the said virus. Nobody is saying anything about the millions of lives that stands to be starved to death, if no proper provision is made for them.

Coronavirus is deadly, no doubt about that, but hunger is no less dangerous. Many families are already feeling the heat, let alone when the lockdown would be extended a few more weeks.

So when arguing in favour of the lockdown to contain the virus, never forget the most basic need of man for survival-- food-- which the lockdown has disrupted for many homes and the government seems not to be doing much about it.

It's better NIGERIA remains on LOCKDOWN.
Better to be confronted with HUNGER that is not contagious than a DEADLY VIRUS, that can wipe an entire Lineage.

The US failed in that regard because it was looking at the US ECONOMY...

The problem is still the media, they sample a pictures of people falling down in China and amplified the fear of what was largely unknown in something else.

The impression we had at first was that of 97% of infected people falling down and dying. All the same, Covid is a serious plague if not well managed.

HIV is a learner o, Corona moves around with less effort, reason the lockdown is looking like a good option. Maybe we should try herd immunity. Since survival rate is really high, of course, people will die, but many will definitely survive.

The problem is, Corona virus has the potential to overwhelm our health system, making it difficult to treat other easily treatable conditions, meaning more deaths from easily treatable diseases.

As an example, Liberia , during the last ebola epidemic, lost far more people to treatable illnesses like Malaria, because the hospitals were overwhelmed by Ebola cases.

Also, people will blame governments for 'not taking tight enough measures' if their relative dies from covid 19 (already, people in many parts of the globe are blaming their governments for doing nothing)
