My Experience As A Covid 19 Survivor. by osesology(m): 5:29am On May 15, 2020 |
Fellow Nairalanders, l want to first of all use this opportunity to thank God for saving my life from this dreaded virus called covid 19. I'm from Edo state. I was one of the 20 people that were discharged on the 13th of this month. My purpose of writing this piece is to enlighten the people, especially the unbelievers on this forum that this virus is real. It is not a propaganda. Yes, l do not argue the fact that Govt has a way of taking advantage of situations like this, but when you are knowledgable, there is an extent at which you can be fooled. This desease does not have the power that we are attributing to it. It took me just 7 days to recover because my case was detected early. The reason why people are still dying from this virus is due to ignorance and scepticisms. And when they eventually fall sick, it becomes too late The day l received the call that my result came back positive, the health officials told me to take my time to get ready, and, even though they had my home address, told me to let them know where it will be convenient for me to wait for them to come pick me up. I'm saying this for those who keep say how come they don't see videos of patients on t.v. This was done so people don't stigmatize people close to me. Trust me, Nigerians are very good (or should l say bad) at that. Infact, the day after l was checked in the facility, one driver that works at my office who lives on the same street with my sister, went to that street to announce to anyone who cares to listen that her brother has tested positive to corona virus. Immediately, they started to stigmatize my sister, her husband and their three children. And these are people that l have had no contact with for weeks. So, my main reason for writing this is for people to stop being ignorant. Get tested immediately you start to feel unwell. Early detection is the key to fighting this thing. When you are been screened, answer all the questions truthfully, don't hold any information back because it is due to the information you give that determines if you are eligible for testing or not. It is better you get tested and it comes out positive and receive treatment immediately than lie about your health, go home and die in ignorance. Covid 19 is Real! Thanks. 489 Likes 46 Shares

stay safe is all the summary I can infer but getting tested too many doubts about the instance of getting tested. Its becoming scary to get tested and not be positive. |
Re: My Experience As A Covid 19 Survivor. by osesology(m): 10:29am On May 15, 2020 |
zexy2030:I understand your point but getting tested early is still the best way to guarantee early and quick recovery. Its just like HIV. Until you get tested, you can never be quite sure. Anytime you have any of the symptoms associated with HIV, you get scared. Getting to know your status is the best way to deal with any kind of virus. Thanks 37 Likes 1 Share |

Lorazepam:Not quite sure. I normally take a cab to and from the office and sometimes l take a bus, just to economize. I always follow safety guidelines. I always have a hand sanitizer with me. But my only suspect is the buses l take from time to time. 70 Likes 10 Shares |

OP, you can do better by giving more details. This is a very shallow description of your Covid story. People want to know things like, did you have any symptoms, if yes, what were they? What kind of treatment did you receive? Etc. Yes, many people have recovered from Covid 19 without even knowing that they had it. The mortality rate is overhyped. I was shocked to see that Malaria is more lethal than this. God punish Buhari 308 Likes 15 Shares |

@OP osesology Baba, tell us the symptoms you had before you decided to get tested. Tell us about the people you shared the isolation center with. Tell us the drug that was prescribed to you and your journey to recovery in those 7 days. Don't give us half baked info. 84 Likes 3 Shares |
