Although Dr. Ihekweazu said the country has so far only carried out about 20,000 tests, he, however, noted that Nigeria is not fully utilizing its testing capacity.
“We have set ourselves a target to test 2million Nigerians in the next three months, and we have developed a specific strategy around this. Working with our development partners. Today we have tested 20,000 even at that 20,000, we are not fulfilling the capacity that we have. Because testing does not depend on the lab, it depends on the logistics of collecting the sample and transporting it safely, and everything around that. We will continue to do that.
“In terms of burial, we have burial guidelines, we call it the safe and dignified burial guideline. We try to ensure that when the burial happens, it happens safely and also respect the traditions and norms of whatever group is burying their dead, we never take the corpses away, it is the state government that works with the family to find a way of organizing the burial. Never is any corpse taken away from the family. Those guidelines are available on our websites.
2million for 3months, how many months for 200million+, that is 300months making how many years, 12½ years to test all Nigerians 😆😆😁😁😆. Where will I be then oooo with my age now, mayb with 3-4pikin
