Director-General of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control , Dr. Chikwe Ihekweazu, who stated this in Abuja, explained that two cases that met the case definition for the virus were tested and found negative, while two others were currently undergoing series of tests.
“Be rest assured that if there is a positive case, we will be the first to announce it. So, if you see something on social media saying a number of people have died of the virus in Nigeria, it is simply a rumor. It is not possible that it will happen, because there are only three labs in Nigeria that run these tests.
Ehanire argued that Nigeria’s level of preparedness was very high, despite reports that the CVID-19 has a fatality rate of about two per cent, which is not too high but spreads very rapidly. “We are also relieved that the Chinese government now conducts exit screening so that anybody who looks unwell will not be allowed to board the plane.”
The Virus can't thrive in the climate in Nigeria. I am a messenger....watch what you allow into your energy circle though.
