Then you should be a fake pharmacist. Pronouncing someone a covid-19 carrier without proper testing.


Your license should be seized.

When the truth of the situation comes out, then you change your mind again.... funny people

I think this is one of the most truthful forum concerning the COVID-19 scenario in Nigeria.
There is massive community explosion and people are only able to talk freely because it's a faceless forum.
I have family members with loss of smell and /or taste as far back as February 2020. Never for once doubted it did not need an Italian to bring the virus to Nigeria ; Nigerians visiting China full ground!!

Princewell2012:


Mine was only sense of smelling. I was thinking of calling ncdc but was really afraid meaning the whole of my family will be quarantine. But now am perfectly OK. I can smell anything. Glory be to God. Only my wife is not too well but I believe she will be fine. I just hate seeing people shouting scam scam up and down.

Babawale01:
I swearugod. Everyone I know are currently treating malaria fever or something similar to corona lately. It almost same symptoms like weak and joint pain. Zero sense of taste/smell and mid temperature coupled with headache.

Even me sef I've been down for 3days now. I can't smell shit. Could this be happening due to changes in weather or our China is here fully??

Now we dey drag herbal drink like food... I no won die oo

I'm not a fan of commenting on NL but this is mandatory as it'll enlightenment us all alot, I quoted this person because this was my exact symptoms, I'm AA and malaria is my regular customer once I'm bitten by a useless female mosquito but this particular malaria I had over the last 2weeks almost claimed my life, the pains was life threatening to the point that I almost lost hope and already telling my wife all things he doesn't know about my account details and all other things. The acute and joint pains was so severe that I visited the hospital for admission thrice on different occasions and I was highly disappointed that patients are only allowed to interact with the doctors via intercom in the process of preventing covid19. I had to complain seriously to my employer my state of health and how the hospital has restricted me seeing the doctor or conducting any test, meanwhile I've been give malaria drugs twice on the previous visits, the last I went I was then allowed to see the doctor after my employer had sent a mail, so on the third visit I was diagnosed of malaria again after taking a very traumatic malaria drugs with 1000mg emzor paracetamol I've never taken in my life. The doctor himself was surprised I still had malaria in my bloodstream and he then prescribed another harden malaria drugs to be pickup from the clinic pharmacy, I personally requested for admission cos I'm already feeling fainting and a severe headaches from different angles of my head. The doctor said there no patients on admission and I should even count myself lucky I was allowed in for test. To cut the whole bitter experiences epistle short, I started taking the tablets and took off some days of work, and after 3 days I started recovering and was left with the still headaches which I supported with "conc. agbo" herbs. The next was bitter taste followed by 100% loss of smell and taste. I've not experienced such in my life and Google suddenly became my friend, then to my greatest surprised I found that it was a symptoms of covid19 which was though not really included yet on the list but speculations are ongoing. Though, it was already late but I immediately isolated myself from my wife and children but I don't pray these loss of smell experience for my worst enemy. I started smelling everything around me, dettol o, morning fresh soap o, hand sanitizers o, perfume o, my armpit o, my shit for toilet "omo" I chuck my nose inside I dey tell you I no smell anything and thereafter feeding became my greatest enemy that I completely lost appetite and started feeling depressed. I called my inlaw who happened to be in the village and these few tips help gradually for recovering of smell and taste. Cooking saintleave as vegetable soup helped alot. My taste firstly returned because I chopped raw bitter leave and I greatly feel the taste and also salt taste came to normal but all these doesn't add up as sense of smell is what convenes taste to the brain. I continue eating the vegetables as my only diets and continue smelling all around until I started recovering the smell gradually, it's not 100% normal but at least I can enjoy my meals with some returned sense of smell.
The list is endless. Kindly pardon my errors abeg, no time to proof read as I hurriedly type these on duty.

Gilbertase:
It happened to me on 16 May, and was the ONLY symptom. Went for a test the next day and it came back positive as i had expected, cos i have never had Anosmia in my 35yrs on planet earth. Got my sense of smell back one week after without any medication aside my normal high strength vit c supplement i take daily. Isolated myself from family since then. No one else has any symptoms. Will retake the test by Sunday, and i'm confident it will be negative. Most people already have or had covid and have recovered without knowing. I already knew sha, even before the test.

Rodwave:


No evidence to backup this your claim

maybet081:
exactly what is happening in Anambra state ,a large percentage of Onitsha residents treat malaria with a similar symptom you mentioned with cold, and it happened within the same time.Honestly am asking can it be the same thing we are running from?

Untoman:
Let them just open everything, most people have been infected, and we recovered. Let no one ask how am sure it's corona, have experience flu before. This one was different. Each breathing was like hot air. And my nose was blocked. I lost focus, but now am OK. I can smell again and breath well. God loves us to much in African, the corona came and we won the fight. We came out strong

czarr:
Almost everyone in my family and church have lost their sense of smell and taste and recovered recently....which is a symptom of corona virus.

Are we all infected and recovering on our own?
after all there is a 98% recovery rate.

nairamaniac:
Is this thread a joke?

Still haven't seen your proof debuting my post

Thank God for the courage of the op, and the honesty of various commenters so far.
Mine started with serious body ache. High fever for two days and I went to the hospital without delay. Doctor treated Malaria. This was last week Tuesday and PH was on lockdown. By Friday i had totally lost sense of smell, but can taste sweetness and bitterness. I was so scared. The fever subsided but the body ache remained. I was so weak that i could hardly climb staircase. On a normal day I do 10k plus steps every two days while excercising.
I could not believe this is happening to me. I already have bp problems and also on sugar medication. Scared shit.
I called NCDC but no response. By Sunday the loss of smell persisted. I cannot perceive my perfume, soap, smoke, anything. My husband tried to assure me its not covid but deep within me I knew I have got it. I was scared for my children and family. How do i really isolate when i still dish out food and they always come in to talk to me. By Sunday I called earlier and was told to come to elekahia stadium for test. I went there in the afternoon but was told by security that they were not around.
I went back to see my doctor and he simply told me to add home remedies. Crush ginger and garlic together, add to boiling water, and inhale the fumes while covered with a towel.
I added dogonyaro leaves. This became my medication since then. I just got better. Taste and smell started returning yesterday. Its not like anything i have ever experienced all my life.
My niece also developed symptoms on monday and was taking the same treatment. She is ok now.
Guys, covid 19 is real. God is just merciful to us here in Nigeria. I thank God for the opportunity to share this experience. I am still isolating from the aged and vulnerable.

Do you have any pre-existing conditions e.g Lung disease, moderate to severe asthma, heart conditions, diabetes?

I am on diabetes medication and daily BP drugs. The sugar is actually pre diabetes stage.

Jakumo:

With all anecdotal evidence pointing to a very rapid spread of the virus in Nigeria, very serious thought must be given to the idea of extending the current lock-down nationwide, so as to avoid the sort of reappearance of the corona virus in several US states that have eased their own lock-downs recently.

Richardonald:
