Nigerians should be ready to stay at home till mid May.....

Can they just close oyingbo market pls and send army to do der works
I reside in ebute metta and all cars, trucks,bikes,traders are moving round in disguise of they are going to the market..

Openbusiness:

Lagos mainland is in the lead because those fuckers put a level 3 infectious disease facility on the mainland, right inside a densely populated residential area. A facility that should have been built in a remote area like snake Island or inside a jungle somewhere that has no civilian population. Why didn't they build it in VI, Ikoyi or Lekki? But they will build it right next to the poor. Do you know that when the coronavirus matter started, all the people who developed symptoms and hoping to get tested, all had to find their way to the IDH in Yaba, some of them took public buses and those areas you have to pass to get there are densely populated too. That's why Mainland has the biggest numbers. God punish this hopeless government

It’s irrelevant, because Covid is NOT an airborne virus...
The only way location would be a factor is if there’s a public market inside the IDH.

Parisian:
The prayer is very valid. Stop finding faults where there's none.

how is it valid? instead of the prayer to revolve around wishing it away so no more people contract the virus, but as long as it does not get to the people that you know, the rest of the world can burn abi?

Give it to them small small.. One week, 2 weeks, three week and so on...lol

Most of the walk ins are classified as mainland LGA... hmmm

leadedge:
This is a bloody lie...if anyone relative have passed away on d mainland we would have heard or know some in real life dat might be related to such person but non as came forward...I think this covid in Nigeria is overated

Over 95% of Covid positive cases will recover...
So having a large number of positives does not equate to large number of morbidity.

TheGoodJoe:
Time to push mass testing around the country. The lockdown is not going to be effective without testing massively.

What you’re seeing now is the result of ramped-up testing....
The NCDC is probably testing more people daily now than they used to weekly.

This NCDC is it only at night they released all their news?

yusufyo:
Now some fools have started blaming the government. They couldn't appreciate the government when it was trying to confine people in their homes now it has gone out of hand and everyone is trying to change the narrations.

Well said...

I said it then, this will not be “government this, politicians that”...
The impact of Covid-19 on Nigeria will largely depend on the actions of all Nigerians.

Yes...
It makes sense to collate all the figures at the end of the day and issue ONE authoritative bulletin.

Openbusiness:
Both the Lagos commissioner for health and the minister of health needs to be sacked. They caused all this rubbish giving the government fake hope that they were prepared, giving them bloody wrong recommendations that people coming into the country should self isolate at home. That's the dumbest thing ever. Stay at home and self isolate for some people that don't even believe the virus is real, or stay at home and self isolate for a returnee from abroad that hasn't been to Nigeria in 10 years and is so eager to mingle with family and friends and explore the city. Who monitored them whether they complied? Oh you just thought because you advise them to stay at home and self isolate, 100% of the abroad returnees will just obey you and lock themselves inside one room alone by themselves for 2 weeks without interacting with anybody in a HIGHLY SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT LIKE LAGOS? These guys got it so wrong from the beginning. They should have recommended from the beginning compulsory 14days isolation for anyone coming into the country from anywhere, and govt move them from airport straight to quarantine centre. It will have cost the govt little money to build and maintain the compulsory isolation policy than to give the potential infected carriers free pass to enter your cities without a guarantee that they will self isolate properly. Now they will spend the whole 2020 budget on Coronavirus and still borrow BECAUSE THEY CHOSE TO BE VERY STUPID IN HANDLING THIS MATTER, A PENNY WISE POUNDS FOOLISH GOVERNMENT! Now you have community spread in a city that PEOPLE CAN'T DO WITHOUT SOCIALIZING, in a place that is the MICROCOSM OF NIGERIA and every tribe is represented in Lagos and once the virus hits Lagos, it will surely circulate across the entire country in a short time.

Self isolate has to be one of the dumbest move they could implement. If not for their copy copy nature, they would have know that many Nigerians who came from abroad will never self isolate. People that has never obeyed traffic law in their lives will now obey this one? Story!

They have caused the community spread and now it’s to late. The resources they put into this lockdown could have been used to aggressively trace those imported cases.

We can’t think for ourselves, we just have to copy Whites

We are prepared for Covid 19 nah like this. SMH

Sober reflection time, thinking of what's to come after all these...

Good you are doing the right thing.

Ask questions??

But let God's word be your guide not what the scientist say...

Self-isolate is a practical solution when you do not have enough facilities in place...
Of the index case, 179 contracts were traced and self-isolated, and only one ended up positive.

Acidosis:

Wrong headline. There is a difference between Mainland and Mainland LGA.

Most affected local government area is Lagos Mainland LGA. That's places like Ebute Meta. If you're in this axis, better lock yourself indoor 24/7.

Mainland (LGA) as reported here is Ebute Meta

And yaba

BreconHills:


You are fitting facts to prejudice.

IDH has been in yaba for over a 100 years and at that time Yaba was in the suburbs. Lagos was Lagos island, Iddo and Ebutte meta. Maryland and ikeja were in the western region until the early 60's. This is a phenomenon that is common all over the world.

IDH has been there a long time, I know. Let me tell you me I be original Lagos boy, I breathe and live Lagos, the map of Lagos is in my blood. IDH from time was never a LEVEL 3 facility, they upgraded it to Level 3 during Ambode time. Instead of upgrading it to Level 3 at that place, they should have relocated it and moved it to a remote location and continue from there. How can you put a level 3 infectious disease facility in an urban area? That's madness! Is it not human beings working there? Imagine one staff makes a mistakes and a highly infectious virus gets out, how do you contain it quickly when the IDH is right in the middle of an urban population? Is that not what just happened in China with the Coronavirus and today it has reached 210 countries with million infected and hundreds of billions spent but yet the virus is yet to be contained. Do you think they call it a INFECTIOUS DISEASE Facility for nothing? It means the pathogens and microscopic organisms they are handing there are highly dangerous and capable to spread quickly if they leak or get out. Imagine one nurse not decontaminating herself 100% properly before coming out to mingle in an urban public space, even if 99% decontamination was done that 1% error left can have grave consequences for the society. That facility has no business being in that location anymore.

If not that we are very stingy, that one billion they claimed to have spent during this lockdown, they could have rented a large as Bleep camp and equipped it for isolation of all imported cases both symptomatic and asymptomatic.

Oga, do you remember when you prayed to come first in your class? Did you pray for the whole class to come first? When praying for a contract or job favour, do you pray for the whole nation. Do you know that some people are starving to death when you have money lying in your account that you don't urgently need?

If faced with a life and death situation, wouldn't you save yourself first before thinking of others? This is hypocrisy. The earlier you realise that humans are inherently selfish in nature the better for you.

In other words the government is dumb and stupid for taking an approach of levity from the beginning. By the time they spend all the national budget money for 2020, 2021, 2023 to 2030 together combined to fight Coronavirus in 2020 alone, they will wake up from their stupidity. 14 days lockdown so far was a waste. The current 14 days lockdown we are in will be another waste because the fucking GOVT lacks people with sound critical thinking ideas that can curb the spread. If I was the governor of LASG , I would do a better job 100000% than what we have now. You can't just shut down without testing, they should have bought at least like 100 million test kits, distribute it like 2 million per LGA and LCDA, then enforce a lockdown. Have LGA testing units go out and test people from house to house, collate the results, then you know the areas that has a high rate of Coronavirus and those that don't. Then you shutdown those areas within the lockdown, nobody goes in or out. Other areas with no cases are opened up and people continue living their lives but with safety guidelines of no mass congregation, compulsory facemasks or ppe when going out to work or anywhere, social distancing, no public transport allowed, only government transport (BRT etc) so that they can enforce and monitor the social distancing compliance when people are going from one place to another, while the state remains on lockdown from international and local travels, nobody is allowed to enter Lagos without going through a 14 days quarantine at a govt isolation center. Then those areas that you have shutdown under the lockdown, you concentrate on distributing relief materials and money to the people there. The infected ones will be evacuated to the isolation center for treatment, and mass decontamination of public spaces, houses and homes within those areas are carried out. You treat the State as if it's a computer programme and you execute it in clusters. Like you are doing programming up to down and down to up, YOU CONQUER THIS VIRUS BY RUNNING LIKE AN INTERPRETER THAT TAKE THE CODES LINE BY LINE, LOCATION BY LOCATION, YOU CAN'T DEFEAT IT BY ACTING LIKE A COMPILER THAT WANTS TO RUN THE CODE AT ONCE. That's what they are doing now and guess what? SYNTAX ERROR everywhere. Over 300 cases in Lagos now and the government is still sleeping

Seenyo:
...too bad!

If only this satanic, self serving government had done needful by closing the borders earlier, Nigeria wouldn't be in this dire situation!

Nig urgently needs a leader!

Nigerians are still returning (by land) as we speak...
You cannot stop citizens returning to their own country.

Nigerians love to blame government (and there’s a lot to blame)...
But this time the actions of ORDINARY NIGERIANS is/will be the decisive factor.

Do returnees self-isolate? Will people report symptoms? Do people observe social distance? Etc,

But the authorities are using those monies/donations/CSR now to put the facilities in place...
But at the time this virus arrived, Nigeria (just much of the rest of the world) was short-handed (and we probably still are).

Kekereekun123:
Getting scary biko. I have been walking about in the name of exercise. I no do again

Don't stop exercising. Just maintain proper distance from people while exercising.

Eating well, sleeping at least 6 hours daily, exercising and taking your vitamins ( vitamin c, b, d) is the greatest defence against covid 19 or any diseases. It boosts your immune system.

Trust me on this

Will you stop this already. Govt is to be blamed from A-Z on this. You hurriedly imposed an I'll thought out lockdown without considering the welfare of the people.

Common palliatives is heavily mismanaged and overtly politicised.

See how long it's taking them to establish test centers

Despite billions spent u still have no major upgrading of existing sub standard hospitals

Many can also see through the propaganda of the government as the narrative is far more erroneous than reality.

Don't blame the people,blame our rudderless leadership.

No need for the thesis (which tbh I won’t bother to read)...
There’s NO country worldwide where everyone has simply relied on government alone to fight Covid-19.
