This is in light of the reality that the country’s isolation and treatment centres have become overwhelmed by the number of persons requiring institutional isolation and treatment.
The Director-General of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control , who made this known on Thursday during the daily briefing of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, said: “Up till now, we have kept patients in care or advised that patients be kept in care until they turn out to be negative on the test that we are using – the PCR tests.
“On our discharge criteria, we changed it from two tests – 24 to 48 hours apart, to a single negative test. The reason is that most of our cases that tested negative also tested negative for the second time. Of course, there will be some exceptions, but in most cases when they test negative the first time, the second test is also negative.”
Why would you not discharge when they're still 'positive' when everything was staged from the beginning! Were they really positive to begin with and the buharists with all these can still not reason well. Their stupidity is legendary!
I'm coming home coming tell the world I'm coming home
Hopefully after FULL recovery to make bed space for others
