Well, Covid-19 is not a death sentence.

Many more Nigerians than the reported cases are actually Covid-19 positive. Majority are asymptomatic and many more recover with little or no medication.

Deaths recorded are mainly people with serious underlying health conditions with compromised immune systems.

Pls even if you believe you have a strong immune system, you can still contact & spread Covid-19 to people & loved ones around you.

So pls take all the necessary precautions & stay safe.

It is well

ENGINEERG:
THIS TEST ARE INCONSISTENT, YOU WILL SEE A STATE WITH 1 OR 2 CASES OR NO CASE, SUDDENLY HAVING 40 CASES, , SEE KANO AND KWARA, THAT WE DONT SEE CASES FROM OF RECENT NOW HAVING MANY CASES TODAY

Really? Tell me about it.

Let me tell you something. The reason Covid-19 has not killed too many people in Africa is because Africa has a very young population. Because life expectancy is already low at about 52 years.

It has recently been shown that most infected in Nigeria are from 31-40 years old.

If Nigeria had life expectancy of say from 74 in men and from 82 in women like many Western countries, deaths would have been high too.

As people get older, on the average, they accumulate co-morbidity (several illnesses) including high blood pressure/cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, lung/airway disease and so on. These we now know increase risk of severe Covid-19 illness and death. I am not writing here as a novice.

you ooze sense abeg, bless you

Dear Good people of Nairaland, please kindly take a minute to read.
 Earlier this year I got an admission offer from a school in US but my application could not be evaluated for funding due to late submission. I had to differ the offer till next year and will have to submit  GRE score that was initially waived because of the pandemic to be evaluated for funding.

I was told if i could write the GRE and score very high coupled with my good academic background I'm sure going to get the funding. I already saved about 50k for the exam until I was told I'll be needing an International passport for the registration. I inquired about the cost of doing that which was 17800 on getting to immigration I spent nothing less than 40k to get the passport done. Now I'm I've just 10k left and the cost of the exam is 60k.

And the reason why I've to register now is.because there are not so many centers and if one does not register early enough (at least 3months prior) the scheduled date might not fit into your plan because of limited centers, and in my case my result must've been ready by December so I can be evaluated early enough when there would be more funding available and less competition.

I was able to raise the initial 50k by going to site with Surveyors and work as an instrument operator but the whole pandemic issue has affected the availability of jobs already and I'm even still being owed. So, I'm pleading with eyes full of tears to any kind hearted person to please come to my aid and support my ambition. I'm very positive of acing this exam and getting a full funding.

see my state de number one o,,,,,,,,,,shwo!!!!!!!

This NCDC is very calculative about the cases. Cos, the higher the rising in cases, the more patients discharge.It's well! Peace to the world!

There's fire on the mountain but no one is running yet.


Delta state, where are you running to?!

Help me ask ooooo

martineverest:
I pity that state....it seems covid is everywhere in Delta..their governor and wife got it too

Lol... Do you stay in Delta State? What are you pitying there? Where are the sick people located? Abeg leave matter. Yes, covid is damn real but you see that score sheet? It's pure unadulterated bullshit!!

BAZ001:
790 well done NCDC you are trying.
This result is for last week, we don't have result for today yet.
Maybe this is delta's result for the whole of June
If you ask people that got infected in Lagos, they will tell you they were all wearing mask, using sanitizer and washing of hands, some even said they didn't go to public places.
How then did they get infected ? Even W.H.O can't answer the question all over the world.
You can only stay at home and be careful but it Is only God that is protecting us.
Let government open everywhere plssss, there is no need of partial easing, if Test results takes 2 weeks to come out, and still testing only people that have symptoms or in contact with positive case.
Well! They know what they are doing

I'll answer some of your questions as someone living in a country that has been through some of the worst with COVID 19. When it comes to the Corona virus and being safe, one has to know that everyone within a house has to be safe all the time. One person going out is the same as everyone going out. Steady washing of hands and the use of the right hand sanitisers is also vital in the fight against Corona. Let's look at the so called mask in question, very few people actually have the right mask required to stop the spread of Corona. What a lot of people have out there are non P3 or N95 mask which are technically useless when used in a confined space with a covid 19 patient. Be safe, eliminate all but essential movement and not seeing that friend of yours will not hurt you in the long run. The Corona virus is real and should be taken seriously, however without the element of fear.

martineverest:

Covid is everywhere in Nigeria... If it's all over Delta, then it's all over Lagos, Abuja, Kano, Edo, Kogi, etc...

The rule is simple: Test more, get more figures... Test less, get less figures, and vice versa!!!

It's only a matter of time before you start seeing diminishing figures, not because ncdc has put a lid on the infection and spread across the nation, but because they have drastically reduced or stopped testing.

This will remain the same across the globe. Corona is not going anywhere till widespread vaccination comes in... We need to get this straight, and maybe stop chasing shadows, pretending to be on top of a situation that has been out of our hands since April, and crack on with our lives and nation.

Echvfhb:
Long-standing systemic health and social inequities have put some members of racial and ethnic minority groups at increased risk of getting COVID-19 or experiencing severe illness, regardless of age. Among some racial and ethnic minority groups, including non-Hispanic black persons, Hispanics and Latinos, and American Indians/Alaska Natives, evidence points to higher rates of hospitalization or death from COVID-19 than among non-Hispanic white persons. As of June 12, 2020, age-adjusted hospitalization rates are highest among non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Native and non-Hispanic black persons, followed by Hispanic or Latino persons

Social deprivation, inequalities, poverty, and those things you mentioned lead to what? All largely lead to poorer health than the more privileged people.

In effect a poor black person in America who has a chronological age of 40 might have a biological age of 60. When you measure his health indicators.

Even after adjusting for genetic susceptibility due to ethnic reasons, age still plays a big role.

You cannot honestly claim that a poor black American of 70 years does not have more susceptibility to severe Covid-19 disease than a 35 years old family member of his who lives same living standard.

Deltans don't believe in the virus at all

This virus is all over Delta state. There are many people treating themselves from home with herbs. Almost everyone in Ughelli have lost their sense of taste and or smell. They took the virus for granted saying it is a scam.
Now known people are dieing of the virus. May God help us.

martineverest:
the thing is just ravaging Delta State

They underestimated the virus and rushed to open up and forgot safety measures
