COVID-19: FG blames high deaths on fear

It said this could be attributable to fear by some Nigerians to visit hospitals to receive qualitative care over apprehension of contracting COVID-19 or health workers refusing to attend to patients for fear of contracting the virus.

“As a result of that we do worry that some deaths may have occurred not directly in connection with the coronavirus. If a person couldn’t go to get help in a hospital because of the fear of coronavirus or doctors refusing to attend to such persons. Concerning the cases of unexplained deaths in Kano and other states, the minister said: “Pathologist from 8 states have been invited for training. There are both reported cases of deaths in Kano state and Zamfara, as these are the ones that have been mentioned openly.

“A Federal Ministry of Health team has been assembled to proceed to Sokoto and Bornu on fact finding and support missions; to engage with State authorities and determine material and technical needs.

Blame it on hunger and failed administration. There can be fear if there is food on d table and cash in hand and at bank. 'Bi ebi ba kuro ninu ise, ise buse'

That is what all the news teaches us to be afraid

This is true sadly

This is what Gov. Yahaya Bello was avoiding for his state.

FG caused 95% of the death.

Lockdown, no matter what u do

Who caused the fear and panic? You, the govt?

Dis was zaa same gov't dat assured Nigerians dem-dem were prepared. Now, we begin 2 understand their so-called nextlevel. I think dis remains d worst gov't we ever had in d history of Nigeria. Must your guess be good as mine? ZaaGobeMent said zaa one party 16 yes was bad...

Why the blame? Is that not what they want? Are they not the cause of the fear? FG should stop that nonsense. They are the one spreading the fear in the atmosphere.

Repot the killings in Southern Kaduna! elrufai should be held responsible. Stop the killings in Southern Kaduna.

It's the Government that is responsible for the fear, the way the information was dis eminated initially makes covid-19 to sound like death sentence.. THIS IS NIGERIA
