I meant to say it breaks my damn Heart❤️ not my damn Geart, thats just how emotional I was when making this decision but when you choose ur friends over your Family, I have to make the best decision for me and my husband who is Already suffering from COPD. I’m sure most of the millennials think we are dramatic and overreacting because they’re not as “woke” as they think they are 🤨 Why am I sharing this publicly? Because maybe some of You might want to think of the activities of Your children outside of your house these days as well. The millennials are not listening and not taking proper precautions. This is our LIVES we are talking about people especially if you are in a certain age category. I’m bummed but it is what it is. #fukthesekids 💔

COVID-19: Buhari Not Flown Abroad – Presidency The presidency has debunked an audio making the rounds that President Muhammadu Buhari has been flown abroad for treatment over coronavirus. According to the audio in circulation online, President Buhari and his Chief of Staff, Mr. Abba Kyari, have been flown out of the country for treatment. In the audio, a lady narrated how the alleged trip was arranged, claiming that she got the information about it from her friend whose husband is the pilot contacted to fly President Buhari and Mr. Kyari abroad. A tweet, however, on the Presidency’s handle, Thursday night, described the audio as “concocted,” adding that Buhari was at work in his office that night. It, therefore, called on Nigerians to disregard the audio, saying it is “fake news.”

The director-general of the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), Chike Ihekweazu, says Nigeria cannot ramp up its testing capacity for coronavirus (COVID-19) infections because the infrastructure does not exist. . Nigeria has 65 confirmed cases of the disease that's sweeping the world, but the country has only tested 262 people in one month. The low rate of testing has raised concerns about what could be the true spread of the disease around the country. . The World Health Organisation (WHO) has stressed that increased testing is the best way to detect and contain the virus. . However, while speaking during an interview on Arise TV on Friday, March 27, 2020, Ihekweazu said it's currently difficult for Nigeria to step up testing based on resources available. . "The global message is tests tests tests, but there are several limitations we have," he noted. . The NCDC boss said the country is strictly sticking to only the molecular testing that is approved by the WHO. He noted that none of the rapid testing kits being offered by private bodies work reliably enough to be accepted. . He said the Federal Government has released more funds to improve efforts, but that the hope is more effective rapid testing kits can be developed in good time. . "There's no magic bullet. This is science," he said. . Nigeria has confirmed 65 coronavirus cases in nine states – Lagos (44), FCT (11), Ogun (3), Ekiti (1), Oyo (1), Edo (1), Bauchi (2), Osun (1), and Rivers (1). . One of the cases died earlier this week, but a total of three people have made full recoveries and discharged. . #PulseNigeria #PulseNews #NCDC #CoronavirusNigeria #CoronavirusUpdates #COVID19Nigeria #Coronavirus #COVID19Lagos #COVID19 #Coronavirus

Hey guys here’s one of the ways that I’m helping out during this crisis. Pictured here is the last hot meal i had before the self quarantine. The hot meals I’m making for myself don’t count because they aren’t good. Anyway, my friends @lesleefeldman @aimeecarpenter17 and I are adopting hospitals to send meals to each week. This week it’s #Kaiser. We figure that by doing this, we’re helping restaurants, delivery services and showing love to our healthcare workers. You can join with a group of your friends and send meals to first responders or city workers in your area. We know that many are on the frontlines without PPE. So let’s show them Love in any way we can! Shout outs are welcomed. 👇🏽

To our wonderful, brave healthcare workers… thank you all for working… and I’m sorry you have to wear trash bags, used and old masks for PPE.. blessings to you all. Think of it this way: There are now only two groups of Americans. Group A includes everyone involved in the medical response, whether that’s treating patients, running tests, or manufacturing supplies. Group B includes everyone else, and their job is to buy Group A more time. Group B must now “flatten the curve” by physically isolating themselves from other people to cut off chains of transmission. Given the slow fuse of COVID-19, to forestall the future collapse of the health-care system, these seemingly drastic steps must be taken immediately, before they feel proportionate, and they must continue for several weeks. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

We are now in an era where constant sensitization and awareness drives are key to the slowing down and bringing to an end the transmission and spread of the novel coronavirus disease. In order to ensure that everyone, either young or old, literate or non-literate totally grasps and understands the messages on the severity of this disease and the danger it poses to us as a society, we have taken delivery of and deployed several vehicles within the metropolis as an advocacy tool to further assist in the fight against the spread of the COVID-19 disease. We will take our messages to every nook and cranny of Lagos, we will continue to update and inform residents until everyone is aware that we must adapt to the new lifestyle we have been made to live in order to beat this disease. I believe that with God on our side, and us doing the right thing by maintaining social distancing, washing our hands regularly, sanitizing as many times as possible, and maintaining good hygiene, we shall prevail.

Nigeria’s President tested positive to #Coronavirus but is hiding the result — #CNN

by Oby Oriji on
IMG-20200327-WA0000

We are indeed aware of some signs and symptoms that seem to be having up this allegation of CNN, but are for some reason deciding to hide it instead, since our Governement will rather hide and force down an idea down our throats because they think it will cause hopelessness and chaos in the Country.

This is the extent of insincerity in the Country if this turns out to be true. CNN has not exactly very accurate with all their broadcasts, but when it was reported that one of the only two Ventilators in Gwagwalada teaching hospital has been taken to Aso rock, and Aso rock as a whole getting fumigated, people of the world are not fools, so they started putting the pieces of puzzle together and came out with this conclusion.

The World Health Organisation has said the novel coronavirus which has infected over 400,000 people and killed over 18,000 in 196 countries cannot be transmitted through mosquito bites. . In 2018, WHO reported that there were an estimated 228 million cases of malaria worldwide with over 405, 000 deaths. . It commented that of the global malaria burden, “Africa carries a disproportionately high share as the region is home to 93% of malaria cases and 94% of malaria deaths”. . However, in a list of COVID-19 myth busters released recently, the UN specialized agency for global health stressed that mosquitoes, which spread plasmodium parasites and malaria vectors, DO NOT transmit coronavirus. . It also said taking a hot bath, alcohol consumption, drinking hot tea/coffee, using hand dryers, amongst others do not prevent the ravaging pandemic. . Here is the list: . 1. Coronavirus CANNOT be transmitted through mosquito bites —– To date, there has been neither information nor evidence to suggest that coronavirus could be transmitted by mosquitoes. Coronavirus is a respiratory virus which spreads primarily through droplets generated when an infected person coughs or sneezes, or through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose. . 2. COVID-19 virus can be transmitted in areas with hot and humid climates ——- From the evidence so far, the COVID-19 virus can be transmitted in ALL AREAS, including areas with hot and humid weather. . 3. Cold weather and snow CANNOT kill coronavirus ———- There is no reason to believe that cold weather can kill coronavirus or other diseases. The normal human body temperature remains around 36.5°C to 37°C, regardless of the external temperature or weather. …………….

#Nigerianpolice begins forcefully shutting down non essential Markets and shops

by Oby Oriji on
Screenshot_20200327-094530

Seems liquor is to someone what essential good and water is to others. They clearly are doing the one significant thing to make people comply, but that destruction is simply alittle too much and in my opinion, unnecessary to say. Were they trying to completely make you regret disobeying the Governor that they had to encure cost for the perpetrators.

Please stop the destruction and just enforce laws as expected. PLEASE, THIS is not the time to put people into more stress by causing them pain intentionally. Nigerian force will always go a step ahead.

With all due respect🙌 I cringe at this post. My Jesus never went from hospital to hospital, or from one home to the other with the intention to heal people so under what authority will these pastors you challenge do that?? My bible tells me that 100% of the healing Jesus performed was done by the Faith of the afflicted. James 5: 14-15 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in FAITH will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven." The bible did not ask pastors to flex muscles by going from hospital to hospital to touch infected people, let us not in the scare of this pandemic make a caricature of the scriptures and the Body of Christ. Hold on to the promises of God over your life and Family, Pray, take precautionary measures and Be safe. This will surely Pass🙌 #coronavirusisreal #stayathome #pray

We would continue to fight the COVID-19 pandemic that is gradually seeping into our state. We would not relent in our efforts and we will not rest on our oars as we combat this disease. All hands will continuously be on deck until we are at zero new infections and ultimately zero transmission. We are aware that to totally rid our state of this scourge, all our public spaces must be disinfected, fumigated and sterilized. Therefore, we are deploying more of the disinfecting equipments to as many locations as possible within our state for disinfection and sterilization of all public spaces and surfaces. Aggressive times call for aggressive measures, therefore we will aggressively tackle this novel coronavirus and bring its catastrophic reign to a complete end.
