SenecaTheYonger: Which more deadly ![]() As the Mail and Sun articles say, based on local reports, the patients who tested positive twice in Wuhan showed no symptoms the second time and none apparently passed the disease to others. The same was true of a group of patients who tested positive twice in Guangdong province. The Sun quotes a doctor involved in the research saying the results were in the “weak positive” range, suggesting that the virus may no longer have been active. He also added that there may have been problems with sampling. culled from: https://fullfact.org/health/coronavirus-catch-twice/ |

NigPatriot:Don't you think UK and USA only slowed down the actual outcome? You can't tell yet. It's been proven you get immune to the virus. The question that can't be answered is if it's forever or a long or short period of time. Cases of reinfection are very rare for the cases of reinfection in China; As the Mail and Sun articles say, based on local reports, the patients who tested positive twice in Wuhan showed no symptoms the second time and none apparently passed the disease to others.

pesty100: What about people like me that have been out of work for over a week and no money to buy food? |
![]() |
pesty100:self medication isn't a new thing to Nigerians, we can result to self-help at home. for Covid-19, the only difference between the hospitals and home is just ventilators and we still lack them even in the hospitals We all know the government can not afford to feed Nigerians even for one month. I think Nationwide anarchy poses a greater danger compared to overwhelming our hospitals. |

Honestly, Nigeria's governments are just being too optimistic. Coronavirus won't stop spreading in just 2 weeks. Many advanced countries have being battling this virus for months and there is no end in sight yet. Do Nigeria's governments think that the spread of the coronavirus virus will be stopped after just 2 weeks stay at home? They only succeeded in slowing the spread and not eliminating the inevitable. After the two weeks stay at home and the virus hasn't been curtained, will they extend it for another 2 weeks? Will the hungry daily income earners agree to stay at home for another two weeks and go hungry with his family? Even those that have money, will they be able to see food to buy after states have been cut away from the food supply chain? |

Forget about UK for now, let's talk about Nigeria. Honestly, Nigeria's governments are just being too optimistic. Coronavirus won't stop spreading in just 2 weeks. Many advanced countries have being battling this virus for months and there is no end in sight yet. Do Nigeria's governments think that the spread of the coronavirus virus will be stopped after just 2 weeks stay at home? They only succeeded in slowing the spread and not eliminating the inevitable.

Will the hungry daily income earners agree to stay at home for another two weeks and go hungry with his family? Even those that have money, will they be able to see food to buy after states have been cut away from the food supply chain? I created a thread suggesting how the government should handle this coronavirus but it never made frontpage. While I have been seeing far less important topics making frontpage Here is a link to the thread, my suggestion is up for debate https://www.nairaland.com/5766071/covid-19-what-government-should-nairalanders 17 Likes |

This is my suggestion on how this Corona virus issue should be handled. Honestly, I don't think the way the government has chosen to handle this pandemic outbreak is right for a third world country like Nigeria. Using Lagos as a case study, commercial vehicles are prohibited from plying the roads but hospitals and people selling foodstuffs are allowed to operate. How can an average foodstuff seller be able to convey herself and goods to and fro the market as she doesn't own a private car? My sister is a nurse, but she's at home because she doesn't own a car either. This issue has rendered many hospitals incapacitated as most nurses are underpaid hence can't afford a car. Considering this is the period we need the hospitals most... Many states have closed their borders completely. Thereby cutting supply of food between states especially from North to South. The majority of Nigerians eat from hand to mouth. Nigerians give birth to many children and they depend on their daily income to feed their large families. Would they agree to stay at home after they and their children have nothing to eat? Crude oil which Nigeria depends almost solely on has taken a nose-dive in value thereby truncating our economy and we have decided to destroy whatever is left of our economy by shutting it down completely. Why should Nigeria copy first world countries that could afford to pay and feed their citizens to stay indoors when Nigeria can't afford same? I don't need to talk about the adverse effects we are likely to face by these decisions such as; robbery, anarchy, hunger, bad economy... Remember the poor are the majority in Nigeria. I don't want to talk about not having the facilities to test enough people which as a result poor people are not being tested and it's effects. My suggestion; Let the government lift every ban on people operating their businesses and movement. Why? The Covid-19 has no cure, it's a war of life and death between your immune system and the virus. The fastest way to get done with a pandemic like this is herd immunity. It's been proven that once you contract the virus and you recover, you'll become immune to it. When the number of immune people increase, they will shield the people that are not immune to it. That's what herd immunity is all about. Read about herd immunity to understand me better. Self isolation should be optional and not imposed. Old people and those who have underlying health issues which are likely to be vulnerable to the virus leading to fatality should be advised to self quarantine. It shouldn't be imposed on people like us who are actually more scared of hunger than the virus. If my suggestion be taken, there'll be less stress on the economy and the virus won't exceed two months. In my opinion, with the restrictions, the virus spread will be slower and can last up to six months. Caveat; I am not a medical practitioner, I am just Naijason Ezeiru, a rational thinker and I always think outside the box. This is just my opinion and it's open to debate, criticism or abuses. Whichever one is welcome. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Ngozey:sorry, once a thread gets to frontpage, you can't modify the original post. your best bet is to mail the mods to bring it down. |

Ngozey:DM Modified; please, don't DM, I have changed my mind. I wanted to give you money in order not to jeopardize your future. I'm sure having a child at this age will probably jeopardize your future, but you are already 8 weeks gone and still counting. Abortion is no longer safe at this period. If I give you money and something goes wrong... Good luck. |

I'm I the only one that thinks this Corona virus is overhyped ![]() it's not even half as dangerous as the media potrays it to be. Despite it being a global epidemic, and being in almost every country it's still on a total of about 10,000 fatalities. Mtcheew. I don't care if I get infected. I'll just be sick for just about a week or 2 and I'll most likely be immune to it for life or prolly a long period of time. after all, I'm young and very healthy with zero underlying health issue. Nigeria should be more concerned about it's economy that is about to take a massive nose-dive because I'm sure hunger and depression will kill more people than the Corona virus that won't spread too freely in hot weather. Funny country. You included Austria and Sweden but skipped some countries that have higher cases such as; Switzerland, Denmark, Norway... Stupid FG. you banned schooling but didn't ban religious gathering. May Corona virus visit Aso rock and be a hero. One old man needs to go and meet many of his age mates. 9 Likes 1 Share |
