18 Gombe COVID-19 positive cases refuse govt isolation

Idris Mohammed, on Monday revealed that 12 people could be accounted for, leaving the task force with the burden of 18 people outside the confine of the isolation and treatment facilities.

He said, “We have a total of 30 people yet to be evacuated in the state, out of the 30, five are Adamawa indigenes; we collected their samples and we gave them our epid numbers and they have since gone back to Adamawa State. But because of the epid numbers, they remain our cases on paper but in reality they are in Adamawa State.

“Two others were traced to Kano State and we notified the state epidemiologist and they have been placed in isolation; one other to Ogun, the state epidemiologist was called and another one was traced to Nasarawa State, we called the state epidemiologist and the last one to Borno state and he has been evacuated by the state.

“Out of 20 people remaining, they are the ones we are having some challenges evacuating but we are making efforts. As of Sunday, we evacuated two. The good thing is that as most of them are trying not to come, so they are in self isolation, they don’t come out in the open but the traditional rulers and political leaders where they reside are working with the task force to ensure they are evacuated, treated and discharged lawfully.”All rights reserved.

Is this what Nigeria could do for her citizens? Your thoughts on this please.

They refused because they know they dont have corona virus stop deceiving us in this country

Why should they? It is very wrong to do that as the consequences to the society is dangerous. They should be arrested and brought to centre for medication.

This is because they dont have it

Why wouldn't they? Some of these patients are not being fed, some are misdiagnosed and no one is really tending to their needs.

Hmmmmm

Refuse?.....lol like there's no law in that state on mandatory Isolation?

Dey deceive unu self

Isolation for malaria you mean!!! I doubt someone who has the symptoms to covid 19 would do that,una Dey use una hand cast una self
