Prof. Akin Abayomi, state Commissioner for Health, disclosed this on Thursday while briefing the media on COVID-19 update.
“Post COVID-19 syndrome is not well-defined. It is characterised by long term lethargy, weakness or what we have recognised as relapses. Abayomi said that through the outpatient facility, patients would be monitored physically and also through the Eko Telemed, to ensure that patients were not experiencing the features of the post-COVID-19 syndrome after their discharge from isolation centres or home-based care.
Speaking on the financial cost of managing a COVID-19 patient in an isolation centre, Abayomi noted that the costs differ depending on whether it was a mild, moderate, high care or intensive care patient.
