The first death of a patient from #covid in December 2019 must have caused sorrow & pain to a family . 6 months on, the world records over 1 million cases & over 500,000 deaths.The groans & the last breath of the dying raises questions about political leadership. A sombre moment.
Today is World Sickle Cell Disease Day #SCD #SickleCellAwareness is important. Newborn screening will allow early detection and prompt medical intervention. #SickleCellDisease

I appeared on @hiimpacttv Global News & advised against the use of #Hydroxychloroquine as treatment for #COVID19. The drug does not save lives & its misuse could be associated with cardiac problems. The trial by @UniofOxford has been stopped @GodstimeDavid13

An infrastructure gap - @PTFCOVID19 @NCDCgov Nigeria has done 35,000 tests in 3 weeks. Problems with supply chain being resolved. With a population of circa 200 million people, there’s an urgent need to ramp up #COVID19 testing in Nigeria #coronavirus
Search for treatment of #covid - Triple therapy with interferon β-1b shortened the duration of viral shedding in patients with #COVID19, according to a Phase 2 randomized trial.@JWatch @nigerianshealth @NCDCgov
#COVIDー19 stories & statistics saddens my heart. At last, some good news in the midst of the misery - The #eu & its partners have pledged $8 billion to develop effective diagnostics, treatments & vaccine. Expected no person or country will be left out #UnitedAgainstCoronavirus
COVID-19 VACCINE?
Remdesivir a broad-spectrum antiviral treatment in #NIH studies show faster recovery (11days) than patients (15days) who received placebo. The mortality rate for #Remdesivir is 8% & 11.6% for placebo. The findings is a ray of hope for a vaccine against #covid
TROJAN Medical Group retweeted
"Tomorrow marks 100 days since WHO was notified of the first cases of “pneumonia with unknown cause” in #China.
It’s incredible to reflect on how dramatically the world has changed, in such a short period of time"-@DrTedros #COVID19 #coronavirus
UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson is in Intensive Care Unit due to Coronavirus. We pray that the healing hands of God will be upon him. Amen.

It is essential that the spread of #COVID19 is contained. Individuals have a major role to play in preventing the spread of the infection. Measures include hand washing with soap & water for 20 seconds, social distancing and staying at home.
As the #Covid_19 pandemic stretches health facilities globally, governments are expanding the capacity of their health systems to treat patients by redesigning conference centres, stadia, naval ships as temporary hospitals. An example - Onikan Stadium, Lagos, Nigeria @followlasg
