Radiotherapy is one of the major treatment options in cancer management, according to the @WHO
52% of cancer patients should receive radiotherapy at least once during the treatment of their cancer. #ChokeCancer
Together with other modalities such as surgery and chemotherapy, it plays an important role in the treatment of 40 percent of those patients who are cured of their cancer,” @WHO #ChokeCancer
As we are testing for #COVID19 in Nigeria, we also need to urgently begin finding indigenous-led scientific therapy or vaccine to protect our people. This virus is spreading fast.
It's almost a month when Prof. Maurice Iwuh, said he has Drug that can fight #Covid_19
Thread:
In my estimation, there is nothing wrong with a vaccine trial in human. In fact, trials are beneficial to all, whether White, Black, Africans, Europeans, Asia etc.
Without Vaccine trial in human, we may not know potency and efficacy. #VaccinesWork#COVID19
What is wrong in Vaccine Trial is when the intent is driven by a perception that the population for the trials are sub-human. Just like the poorly thought French 'doctor' Dr. Jean-Paul Mira, Head of Intensive care, Cochin hospital, Paris, France. #COVID19
People living underlying conditions such as Cancer, Asthma, COPD, Hepatitis, Diabetes, Sickle cell, HIV/AIDs, etc are at higher risk of catching or dying from #COVID19
Please if you know any living any of these illnesses, encourage them to take extra precaution
Please RT.
Thanks
Abuja- Monday, April 20, 2020. The new respiratory illness referred to as coronavirus disease 2019 and abbreviated as “COVID-19” has changed life as we know it for the foreseeable future. COVID-19 affects the lungs and airways;
this illness was first discovered in China and has now spread all over the world including Nigeria. Nigeria now has over 500 confirmed COVID-19 cases as of April 20, 2020, with 170 people discharged and 21 deaths an alarming increase from the first index case on 25th Feb. 2020.
#COVID19 is here to teach us a lesson; I hope we learn. Nigeria’s healthcare is unhealthy.But instead of fixing it, our rulers have been busy flying up & down abroad.
If we survive COVID-19, we need a law to restrict all public officials from seeking medical care abroad. #Thread
With #COVID19, reality is upon us. No more running overseas for medical vacation. Our rulers cannot travel to the United Kingdom, United States of America or India anymore for medical care. These countries are also hanging on their last breath, battling to survive the pandemic.
In 2017, President @MBuhari Buhari spent 103 days in London receiving medical treatment for an undisclosed illness, spending taxpayers’ money instead of investing in the country’s healthcare. Thousands of Nigerians died in the same period from different illnesses. #COVID19
Dr Aniru Conteh, an expert in treatment & research in LASSA FEVER, got the virus when he received a needle injury while drawing blood from a pregnant patient.
This day 04/04/04, we lost this hero who spent 25yrs in saving thousands of lives from LASSA FEVER. #LassaFever#COVID19
Conteh spent his professional career working with people with Lassa fever, a viral hemorrhagic fever endemic to West Africa. Lassa fever was first brought to the attention of the public in 1969 during an outbreak in Nigeria.
Lassa fever, also known as Lassa hemorrhagic fever (LHF), is a type of viral hemorrhagic fever caused by the Lassa virus. Many of those infected by the virus do not develop symptoms. When symptoms occur they typically include fever, weakness, headaches, vomiting, and muscle pains
