FG was making plans to open schools and most places.
NCDC are against it and that's why they've increased the number of deaths so as to scare FG.
Their days are numbered

Don't you think that increased community spread will lead to higher cases? We are even going slow due to the test methods were using.

I swear their days are numbered for real.
They’ll be exposed soon I pray.

Was that why all of a Sudden 31 deaths here in Nigeria, and weren’t not even sure what killed them , or aren’t people dying normally from other illness or diseases?

There was a time that 1000 people died per day in the UK. Google Ecuador covid pictures and see corpses outside in the street. Before a death is ruled as covid, they'll take samples and do test. This will help them to know whether to test the relatives of the person or not.

banio:
Let's keep to NCDC guidelines.
Wash hands always Run away from sneezing people Run away from coughing guys.

Wash hands

Run to where?

Sai Barbar government really cashing out with this CoronaV... Konvik one and nine Birus don end in other countries of the world but this Dullard we have in Aso Rock is using it as his cashout , moneh making venture

Make unah keep deceiving unah self, even as secretive America and China was , we could manage to see their dead people bodies, does it mean These criminals are not brave enough to show us the bodies We want to see dead Bodies of konvik one and nine Birus patience shikina, enough of this scam

ADUBA1:

While are you people always doubt everything government even when your life is endangered. For your info doctors involved in covid19 care were exempted from the strike and the test are not necessarily carried in hospital e.g African center for excellence is not a hospital but a testing centre. Other health workers are not on strike. Consultants are not also on strike

If government politicians truly cares about the lives of the people they should first prosecute all the Fulani herdsmen and bokoharam killers.They are worst than coronavirus

To be honest, I've been thinking about the same thing. I still have a cough and weakness from the flu in December, and then I continue to take the unknown virus that causes pneumonia and bronchitis

I'm just wondering if this thing enter 200million and we are still seeing ourself on the street, I will just be like, guy you no dey Isolation centre? If you know you know

LeiderJa:


Resident doctors association are the ones that declared strike on Monday 15th. Not house officers or consultants. Google ARD.

If there's need for a doctor, there will be provision because resident doctors are not the only doctors in the land.

Again, the ministry of health is not really in charge of the cases. Rather it's the agency for disease control (NCDC). This is why you won't find isolation centres in hospitals. Rather in spaces or stadiums allocated by the government.

I've witnessed an ARD strike before and the only thing that changed was increased work effort from consultants and house officers. There are also general practitioners who are in the system.

The people that do tests in medicine are called medical lab scientists. They are obviously not on strike.

The lab scientists are the guys with the technical know-how to handle the lab equipments not the resident doctors.

Lastly if there's any strain on the healthcare quality by the strike action, it won't be noticeable right now because they just began on Monday

It seems you're the one with little knowledge of what's going on.

Who will administer drugs to patients in isolation centres?

Where and where did it end pls? Cos I still see up 120k cases per day globally. Perhaps I can get acquainted with the place u got your own statistics.

cucumbae:

It's the job of Nurses to administer drugs. Although Drs can also do it but it's primarily the job of Nurses. Besides, Drs working in isolation centres are exempted from the strike.

Common Drug Reduces Coronavirus Deaths, Scientists Report

A steroid, dexamethasone, is the first drug shown to help save severely ill coronavirus patients, according to scientists in Britain.

LONDON — In an unexpected sign of hope amid the expanding pandemic, scientists at the University of Oxford said on Tuesday that an inexpensive and commonly available drug reduced deaths in patients with severe Covid-19, the illness caused by the coronavirus.

If the finding is borne out, the drug, a steroid called dexamethasone, would be the first treatment shown to reduce mortality in severely ill patients. Had doctors been using the drug to treat the sickest Covid-19 patients in Britain from the beginning of the pandemic, up to 5,000 deaths could have been prevented, the researchers estimated.

In severe cases, the virus directly attacks cells lining the patient’s airways and lungs. But the infection also can prompt an overwhelming immune reaction that is just as harmful. Three-quarters of hospitalized Covid-19 patients receive some form of oxygen.

The drug appears to reduce inflammation caused by the immune system, protecting the tissues. In the study, dexamethasone reduced deaths of patients on ventilators by one-third, and deaths of patients on oxygen by one-fifth.

The trial led by Dr. Horby was a randomized, controlled clinical trial, the gold standard for medical research. About 2,100 severely ill Covid-19 patients were given low doses of dexamethasone, orally or intravenously, once a day. Their outcomes were compared with 4,300 patients who had received the usual care.

The trial was stopped early, because the investigators felt that the benefit was obvious. But they said that the drug did not help moderately ill patients who were not receiving oxygen.

Up to 5,000 deaths could have been prevented....out of 42,000 deaths thou

5,000 souls is a lot - even if mostly sickly, old folks who’d die shortly anyway

To be honest, in as much as I believe the numbers aren't real, I know someone who got the virus and battling with he's life. Please people should be careful!

Really?

Stop propagating falsehood. That photo was doctored

StubbornGENIUS:
Since the virus isn't reducing,the goverment should gradually lift inter state lockdown,Keep schools closed because social distancing is a lost cause and give the citizens the palliatives they need to survive the pandemic.

Market unko.... Since school is a lost cause
