The total number of confirmed coronavirus cases in Lagos State may increase to 120,000 between July and August, the state’s health commissioner, Prof Akin Abayomi, has said.

While speaking at a press conference on Friday, Abayomi said the virus was expected to reach its peak in Lagos at that time.Kalu: Supreme Court judgment a setback, says Sagay

He said, “Just a month ago, on April 7 we saw 10 cases per day, two weeks later it was 32, then 70 cases. We are now seeing above 100 cases per day. This shows our graph is moving in a gentle incline upwards. “We definitely have not reached the peak of our outbreak, we suspect that the peak will happen sometime in July or August and so we are preparing for the oncoming of about 90,000 to 120,000 cases during that period. We are increasing our capacity and strategies to deal with this situation.”

The commissioner urged residents not to panic over the increasing cases witnessed in the state, saying it was caused by the presence of sample collection centres in 20 Local Governments. He stated that Alimosho, Oshodi and Isolo local governments have started having more COVID-19 cases, adding that a majority of the dead patients in the state were males.

Not sure most people here follow up with Covid cases in other developed countries. There is always a projection of cases that could be recorded and fatalities.

Lamba😀😀😀😀

Grim forecast. followlasg, could the model used to predict this be made public?

E b tinz

Why foreseeing problem as If that's what u were appointed to do,u can't never foresee Positivity of treating 120,000 or prevent millions from contacting this disease,whose interest u guys are representing?

NaijaFlyingDr Might hit?

Covid19 case forcaster sha make sure all your family down to inlaws are among the 120,000

This people are just evil, NCDCgov has never been this useful they want to use this opportunity to loot a life time money because they know that once,after corona ends they will start to cash out and eat while Nigerians suffer and keep suffering thunder will fire their families

One thing I find preposterous abt people most especially people in government who violates rules but yet demand total compliance from it subject is their lack of precedence which would have been a saving grace. Their botched approach to situation will make things fester even more

God will come through and heal the land before july

Criminals

Finally this is the anti christ that the bibile talked about

How do you then intend to manage them, what are modalities in place for more isolation centers and obviously more testings need to be done

Because they are bribed, their motives is the Vaxx, & that dangerous for Africans. All this Health Commissioners are taking Orders from WHO, I hope our leaders can grow some balls now and control the narrative by themselves and stop been a puppet. Madagascar is doing well. LEARN.

Anyway WHO has reduce it from 3.5m to 190,000 so will Lagos state reduce it from 120,000 to maybe 5k abi less sef. For man is not God. No money, no job or possible jobs yet one is thinking of one disease can be avoided. It’s well
