The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry has stated that despite the positive growth recorded all through the three quarters of 2021, the recovery of the economy from the impact of Covid-19 in 2020 is still fragile, especially as a new variant emerges.
Addressing a press briefing on the management of the Omicron variant of Covid-19 in Lagos, he warned that any imposition of lockdown as a measure to contain and manage the spread of the virus should be avoided at all cost, recommending that Nigeria needs a long-term containment strategy and public health action plan to manage epidemics without having to lock down the economy.
“We must all work towards a safer Nigeria. Let us free our mind and stop being hesitant about taking the COVID-19 vaccine. The fear of dying after receiving the vaccine and other conspiracy theories should be perished. We encourage everyone to take the shots so we can protect ourselves and others from the disastrous effects of the virus,” she said.
