The next few weeks are going to be tough for us Nigerians. Number of cases are amplifying and there are beliefs in some quarters that they massively under-reported. Whether it is enforced by the government or not, there's going to be some sort-of shutdown.
We can't really trust contact tracing to be 100% ,that's not possible anywhere. You know, somewhere in Nigeria right now some secondary contacts of these imported cases are taking coflin syrup and amartem mixed with ciprofloxacin and maybe diclofenac. Another thing they are also
doing is spreading the virus to hundreds of people who will also not be traced. Their CHEMISTS might decide instead to add procold in the mix and they also go on ahead to widely disseminate the nCov.

When this shutdown happens, some families that depend on daily earning will be

The cliché cover photos have even become a meme of sorts for Asian Americans and westerners, with people from many backgrounds throwing their hat into the ring with corona aesthetic ™
Last Monday, a young Singaporean man — Jonathan Mok — was assaulted in an unprovoked hate crime on Oxford Street in London. The men reportedly yelled “I don’t want your coronavirus in my country.” theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/m… Image
I don't know why the man in Flushing collapsed, but he doesn't look much older than Jonathan Mok, and as we approach this pandemic, I am given a little hope in that — unlike China's lifeless pariahs on the streets — people came to help in America. ImageImage

Saint Patrick's Day celebrations winding down next. A year without culture or celebration.
"This is a unique virus, with unique features. This virus is not influenza. We are in uncharted territory." cnbc.com/2020/03/03/who…
"Dr. Mike Ryan, executive director of WHO’s health emergencies program, said Monday that the coronavirus isn’t transmitting the same exact way as the flu and health officials have been given a 'glimmer, a chink of light' that the virus could be contained." Image

A really heartbreaking sight. The sacrifices from health workers in China have been immense.
This is the context of that video, reportedly related to the death of hospital director Liu Zhiming.
This is making the rounds, claiming to be Chinese escaping the country into Vietnam. I'm almost certain that it is misrepresented, and that this is not true.

@CDCgov While I wait for more info to develop in the coming days, make sure to follow @JaneLytv's fantastic coverage of the misinformation that is spreading:
@CDCgov @JaneLytv This is absolutely untrue and there is no reporting to validate it. What is happening in Wuhan is not related to a biological weapon, or a human-caused accidental release, and this emergent reporting of a Chinese national being removed from a Canadian lab is in no way related. Image
@CDCgov @JaneLytv This is trash reporting that is by definition fake news. The Wuhan coronavirus was not released by a lab, and there is no evidence to in any way suggest that. washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jan/…

Folks, the next few weeks are going to be tough, I’m sorry for that but promise you the SNP is working flat out to find solutions. I’ve just finished tomorrow’s @ScotNational column and thought I’d share the final paragraph. THREAD 1/7
There’s plenty people want to stop the brexit uncertainty, and there’s a real brexit scunner factor out there. But the uncertainty comes precisely because we didn’t vote for independence in 2014. If the people of Scotland were in charge of events we wouldn’t be here now. 2/7
Scotland’s problems are coming from Westminster, not anywhere else, let us never forget that. Because it is clear from recent days that this UK coalition of vandals and nihilists are going to burn the building to the ground and blame everyone but themselves for the fire. 3/7
