COVID-19: HOPE AS 21% HAS CORONAVIRUS ANTIBODIES.

The N.Y state has 263,460 confirmed cases of coronavividae virus out of which 15,740 people have died, with 438 of the deaths on Tuesday alone. While the death rate has been fallen, the number of new COVID-19 hospitalization is also flat.

However, the widespread antibody testing by the New York government revealed that about 21% of New York residents  randomly given CORONAVIRUS antibody test returned positive. This was contained in a statement by governor Andrew Cuomo in a news conference on Tuesday and reported by the Time Magazine.

The test also known as a Serologic test looks for the presence of antibodies which are specific proteins made in response  to infections according to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

THOUGHT 🤔: THAT IS THE FATE OF NEW YORKERS AND THE WORLD IF SOME OF THOSE WHO TESTED POSITIVE RECOVERED ON THEIR OWN? COULD THIS BE A NEW LIGHT IN THE QUEST FOR A CURE FOR COVID-19 PANDEMIC?

There are about 189 confirmed cases of covid-19 in Nigeria out of which 197 has been discharged and 31 deaths. This was contained in in the COVID-19 daily updates by the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) on Thursday.

It was reported that members of the NCDC went to Badore in Ajah to transfer a reported COVID-19 patient to an isolation centre. But unfortunately, the man had already died before they arrived. Drama ensued when the NCDC officials tried to take custody of the man's corpse and the aggroeved family members refused.

As reported by a Twitter user @Nerdy_Dopey, the family members and the area boys were literally dragging the diseased corpse with the NCDC officials who were in their customer PPE while both the family members and the area boys as well as the onlookers including the mediators where all without any form of protection. It was a like a game of thing of war said the reporter.

As at the time of compiling this report, the Ajah area has not been lockedown neither has the family memebem all all concerned individuals quarantined.

STAY SAFE.... REPORT ANY SUSPECTED CASE TO THE NCDC.
