let them take it to kano and Lagos asap

I really don't know if these youths don't read or they read but fail to understand. The article is self explanatory, there are countries who have started to develop vaccines for Covid 19 on their own. Nigeria would soon be granted/ listed among these countries to develop vaccines for Covid 19.
The WHO Representative, was clear enough on PTF Covid 19 on Channels TV yesterday.
89 countries have started developing vaccines for Covid 19.
Nigeria has just joined the countries to develop the vaccines, that means Prof IWu and others can develop vaccines for Covid 19.
Nigeria youths only watch Africa magic .
The news was repeated several times on Channels TV and Ait yesterday

Seriously you too didn't understand the write-up. Let me summarize; 1. 89 vaccines not 89 countries are in development stage
2. 100 countries have shown interest in the solidarity trial.
3. 1200 patient have been randomly pick from 5 countries from the 100 that show interest. Not same with urz

Lostz:


those lines are clear and self-explanatory...... unless you have a baby brain

It stated that Nigeria has expressed interest in being part of the trial. The trial is already going on in different part of the world and Nigeria wants to be part of it. It not like they are testing the vaccine with Nigeria alone.

I love France, they dont know how to keep secret like the igala people of Nigeria. Uhmmmmm

What sort of rubbish is this enh. What have we done to deserve all these. At first we pleaded to close d border/airports they refused, we said don't bring the Chinese doctors they refused, and now vaccine trial in Nigeria. For how long will these continue. Better still they should start the trial in Wuhan, Italy,USA, UK,. This might be our last chance o in this country. God Almighty has been by our side from the beginning, that is why most of their plans are not working on us. Please please please, nobody trust the so called WHO. But since nig na mumu okpe ode we be na, we dey buy anything their talk, well maybe that's because they've sold the country its just that they didn't make it official. #Godblessandkeepprotectingnig #Nigshallriseagain

If it is the solution to the problem I don't mind if they start it in Nigeria especially in north

South

gretblue:

But the article says Nigeria scientists should also go ahead to develop vaccines for Covid 19 as other 89 countries have already started

Are you working for WHO or what? Don't mislead people, the article is clear enough; 89 vaccines not 89 countries. Not neccessarily the 89 vaccines is from different 89 countries. A country might be developing upto 5

gretblue:

Unfortunately you only read the headline

I've read the article about thrice trying to understand it, from I understand it never stated categorically that Nigeria is being allowed to develop any vaccine rather the last paragraph said and I quote

"We do have the solidarity trial which is an international clinical trial to help find an effective treatment for Covid-19, launched by the WHO and partners. More than 100 countries have joined the solidarity trial and to date, over 1,200 patients have been randomized from the first five countries to evaluate the safety and efficacy full drug and drug combinations,” Braka said.

This above statement means 1200 people have been picked randomly from the first five country to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug combination being developed by the drug being tested on them, so if they were to use just one medicine, there might not be harm, but what if they were to combine different medications like you would get if your doc diagnosed you of malaria, they'd have to give you combination of drugs not just one, and those drugs must work with each other to help you


The first statement of the text says and I quote

The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that Nigeria has expressed interest to be part of the global solidarity trial of the vaccines being developed to tackle COVID-19 pandemic and efforts are underway to start the process in the country

We expressed our interest to be part of the global solidarity trial of the vaccines developed, so we want to be trial center

Solidarity trials explanation for my own understanding: https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/global-research-on-novel-coronavirus-2019-ncov/solidarity-clinical-trial-for-covid-19-treatments

Or maybe there's something I missed somewhere

Why North?. Why not your family?

Okay. They should start with Buhari and his children.

Golan007:


This pandemic like many other issues, but better highlighted by this one, is a vivid reminder of why most of Africa, Nigeria being a prime example, is backward.

Africans sit back and let the rest of the world conduct research, find solutions and obtain the rewards.

Whilst the research is being conducted, Africans promote conspiracy theories, discard logic, elevate innuendos and engender fake news thinking it is all fun.

I foresee a time in future when Africa would be pleading for the antidotes, begging that the cost be subsidized for them, asking if the capitalists have no human feelings.

For now, it is all well and good to fester in the early days ignorance, waiting to reap where did not sow.

Africans have a habit of promoting self destructive behaviour as good. Our conduct at home and abroad leaves a lot to be desired. Rather than use the Internet to gain knowledge they use it for rubbish. I would understand if it was just a few crazy people but the large number of people posting utter nonsense on this forum with a large amount of likes is just disappointing.

When other countries are done with covid-19 they better not start claiming discrimination when our high cases prevent us from travelling.

I was actually saying almost the same thing.
.my comment is a reply to gretblue who was misinforming people with the below comment;




Do you read the article at all? Scientists from diiferent 89 countries have been granted go ahead to develop Covid 19 vaccines. Nigeria scientists have just been listed to be among the countries to develop vaccines for Covid 19. Is there anything wrong in that?

zz

Anything that can bring an end to this nonsense is welcome

mfm04622:
This is a global pandemic! Why should the trial be in Nigeria in particular and Africa in general? Considering the fact that Africa is not as affected by this pandemic as Asia, Europe and the US?

Nigeria and Africa in general kee? Everybody must participate ooo. Not cheating

gretblue:



The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that Nigeria has expressed interest to be part of the global solidarity trial of the vaccines being developed to tackle COVID-19 pandemic

You go about castigating people of not being able to read when it is you that have comprehension problems. You keep on referring to Channels TV news, when what we have here is an article from Daily Trust. Argue based on what's written in this article and not Channels TV News.The statement you quoted above simply means Nigeria has expressed interest to be part of countries (up to 100 countries so far) where the clinical trials of vaccines already being developed by up to 89 different organizations can be carried out, with 7 already at clinical trial and evaluation stage. This is clear enough from the article. Is that English too hard to understand. If you know the difference between vaccine trial and vaccine development, you won't be displaying such ignorance.
Below is the last paragraph of the article. If you read this, especially the second sentence and still continue being obstinate, then you cannot be helped.

“We do have the solidarity trial which is an international clinical trial to help find an effective treatment for Covid-19, launched by the WHO and partners. More than 100 countries have joined the solidarity trial and to date, over 1,200 patients have been randomized from the first five countries to evaluate the safety and efficacy full drug and drug combinations,” Braka said.

This is really interesting....

It was on Channels TV news yesterday. I really can't help you if you fail to understand to simple write up

why are so myopic ehn? Name all the 89 countries developing the vaccines. Nah we no dey watch news abi

Racoon:
What about Wuhan where it all started or Italy, US? Why Nigeria? On top which person head? So are truly Guinea pigs? It seems the WHO/Bill Gates conspiracy is true esp.with the HOR passage of the vaccination bill.

Some fools believe Bill Gates is their savior. A man who is not in medical line has been on the forefront of vaccine. He even started the whole campaign of vaccine before the advent of the pandemic. His crony in evil Mr Fauci predicted that Trump administration will witness pandemic yet mofos on nairaland will still be running their diarrhea mouth.

Where are Eto'o and Drogba? They should come and see their people fighting themselves to be the first to collect vaccine.


Saying that Africa is the guinea pig is understatement, she's by far worse than that.

Gerrard59:


Thank you very much. Here, you have bunch of lazy and arrogant people who don't want to be tested with the proposed vaccine but will later demand for it when cases skyrocket. Ask them what have they done to proffer solutions, nothing! Left to me, no African country should get a vaccine since they believe that it is aimed at reducing the continent's population. Ironically, African countries have the fastest growing population in the world upon years of conspiracy theoretical BS about reduction of population. Most of these persons wouldn't be alive today if not vaccines they received when they were young.

Are you implying that the conspiracy to reduce Africa especially Nigeria population is a theory, Bill Gates and co had not hidden the fact. Bill Gates talks about it opening.

Gosh, are you daft?

I did not receive those vaccines and over 45 years old and am very healthy.

Take your vaccine, You should not force me to take it by any means. Government around has proven time and time again not to be trusted.
By the way can you explain to us the implication of the NCDC bill? if not to pave the way for forced vaccination.

I rather contact the virus than take any vaccine.

Furthermore, this demon (Dr Fauci) predicted in 2017 that there will be an outbreak. Watch the video and educate yourself.
He said "There will be a [b]surprise [/b]outbreak" and again "

Cant you read that Nigeria volunteer to be part of it?? Nobody forces Nigeria na our leaders volunteer to use you as guinea pig. Please read the content again

codemaniacs:


you should know by from the way gretblue has been responding to people that his one of those people who are the domineering, "if its not my way or opinion then your way or opinion is wrong".

in summary, he doesn't accept the fact that he is wrong and he doesn't respect other people's opinions.

the guy ehnn. That shows he didn't read the article at all, and he is standing on the wrong interpretation of the article.

Oga, the blame should be directed at the op who gave nairaland youths a half-baked story. They are reacting to the post.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2GzVKGN1W4

so you want to try a vaccine in a country where there are lesser cases of the fake covid 19 and ignore usa, france, italy, china etc where itis serous.? na the illiterates i pity

Were Nigerians asked if they will be willing to be part of this charade even if it will be of benefit?

The the leadership of the HOR is hastening a bill to that effect we learnt with most members not allowed to contribute objectively to it. Why?
