Lagos State continues to be the epicentre of the Coronavirus pandemic in Nigeria. As of the 29th of January 2021, Lagos State had recorded a total of 47,871 confirmed cases of COVID-19. Of this number, 34,094 have recovered in community, ..
.. while 9,856 are currently active in community. Over the last 12 months, about 3,988 COVID-related patients have been admitted into the various care centres across the State; with a registered fatality rate of approximately0.63% (301 deaths).
At the #COVID19Lagos press briefing today, I explained the Changing profile of #COVID19 Disease & the #COVID192ndWave in Lagos.
Towards the end of 1st wave we experienced;
📍Changing pattern in Positivity rate
📍Isolation centre almost empty
📍Death rate dropped dramatically

At this point it was important to balance public health response and allowing the economy to reopen.
📍Schools were reopened
📍Religious hoses opened
📍Social gathering and entertainment resumed.
There was general laxity with the false sense that #COVID19 infection is down.

Nigeria has made a lot of progress in preparing and responding to disease outbreaks and epidemics. I remember my early days of public health; some 15yrs ago it's @WHONigeria that prepared and shared the #weeklyepidemiological report for Nigeria... a thread!

For every outbreak or public health emergency in Nigeria, we heard more about @WHO who appeared to be at the forefront with @Fmohnigeria and its agencies; old #NPI which merged with @NphcdaNG fought #polio with the support of @WHO @UNICEF @Rotary etc.

With time the #Epidemiology unit of @Fmohnigeria grew in strength and capacity to lead the response. They also produced and sent out the weekly epidemiology reports for Nigeria, which hitherto was shared by @WHONigeria in collaboration with FMOH for sure. #Clap4NCDC

#Covid19Lagos
#Covid19Lagos
1. Lagos State Govt has tested 16,000 suspected cases of #COVID19 since the outbreak of the pandemic in Nigeria. The highest in the country.
2. The cost of testing a patient ranges between N40,000 and N50,000. It is free for patients and Government bears the cost. Efforts are on to get the cost subsidised through Insurance or donations by aid partners.

The five-week lockdown imposed by the @FGNigeria on Lagos State and two other states to combat #coronavirus Disease (#COVIDー19) will be eased on Monday (tomorrow), but Lagos State Government has asked all its civil servants not to resume for work immediately.
Governor @jidesanwoolu, in a briefing on Sunday at the State House in Marina, said the delayed resumption of the State’s workforce is a deliberate attempt to prevent a development that may lead to a crowding of people on the roads and public places.
