The federal government announced a minimisation in the death toll consistent with the COVID-19 case, but regretted that the death toll in the country has reached an unenviable record of 1,000.

The chairman of THE PTF presidential race organization on COVID-19 and the secretary of government of the SGF Federation, Boss Mustapha, in a briefing of the organization running on Monday.
“Last week, on Thursday, we informed you that Nigeria had surpassed the mark of 50,000 cases shown. Yesterday, Sunday, August 23rd, we reached the unenviable record of 1,000 deaths. We would like to reiterate that these recordings are not just numbers, because they are a brilliant reminder of the risks we still face. May the souls of all who lost the war opposed to CVID-19 rest in peace.
‘The PTF a cependant continued étudier le taux de létalité des cas (CFR) et nous constatons qu’il est en baisse constante depuis quelques mois.
April 30: 3%
May 31: 2.8%
June 30: 2.3%
July 31: 2.0%
August 22: 1.92%
“However, we are convinced that our pattern collection is still small. Therefore, we inspire states to accentuate their tests and report the effects of the right type because early detection will ultimately result in a solution and ultimately a leveling of the curve,” he said. Said.
Mustapha recalled that prior to the reopening of airspace, FTP had implemented access point protocols to minimize imports. “Unfortunately, the pre-plate PCR validation procedure showed that 64% of the recent peak in several cases shown in Lagos (404) on Saturday, August 22 came here from the evacuees,” he said.
SGF added that over the weekend, 252 other Nigerians were evacuated from the United Arab Emirates, raising the total number of Nigerians returning home to 4984, promising that the FG will accentuate the PCR validation procedure to minimize risks.
VET also begged young people with weakened immune systems to wear masks.
He said; “WHO has made recommendations on the use of masks for young people 11 years of age and older in the context of COVID-19 in terms of the community. However, young people with immune disorders are asked to wear a mask regardless of age. This consultant is highly compliant and TFP will notify you as soon as it is reviewed through WHO ».
The TFP also expressed their sadness at the bad news of the prestige of Professor Akin Abayomi, Lagos State Health Commissioner.
“This saddened the TFP because the Commissioner was the first in the fight opposite COVID-19. We wish him and the rest of the frontline personnel who risked their lives and contracted the virus in the procedure an immediate recovery,” Mustapha said. .
Health Minister Dr. Osagie Ehanire, who represented the meeting, said the government would not lose sight of the fact that Covid-19 is not the only physical challenge Nigerians face.
“We will ensure that existing facilities are strengthened. This pandemic also highlighted the importance of vaccination and vaccination for smart health. Strengthening the immunization regimen will continue to attract attention, especially as Nigeria will get its polio-free certification this week,” he said. Said.
The national coordinator of the race group, Dr. Sani Aliyu, explained that with the resumption of flights from 29 August, another 10,000 daily tests would be carried out.
He said airlines would have to pay a $3,500 fine if they were approaching a COVID-19 patient.
“All passengers entering the country will continue to practice the old quarantine protocol we have lately. We will continue the procedure of requesting a negative PCR result for all passengers intending to travel to Nigeria. This verification deserves to be a PCR check,” he said.
According to him, the protocol would be revised at 4 weeks and that from 29 August, the effective era of the effects would be reduced from the existing 14 days to seven.
“We will continue the policy of making sure that airlines only bring passengers without Covid-19 symptoms and with negative PCR results. Airlines will be fined $3,500 if they meet Covid-19’s needs before boarding,” Aliyu added.
Minister of Education, Hon. Emeka Nwajiuba said there were representations of equipment that called on the federal government to reopen higher education establishments, but that the virus remains virulent while the necessary coverage regime in some of the establishments is still available.
He said; “In one position we have analyzed the reactions of some 78 universities, most of which are personal universities that insist that they are in a position to go. From public universities, we have a 50-50 reaction and we’re running towards that and making sure everyone is in a position to go.”
Nwajiuba expressed optimism about the impending reopening of the institutions, but said he would arrange an appointment.
