The Lagos State governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has revealed that 11 more patients who had contracted the deadly Coronavirus disease have fully recovered and discharge from the Infectious Disease Hospital, Yaba, after testing negative twice.
This takes the total number of those who have recovered to 18.
He made this known in a recent submission to address the Coronavirus and speaking about the number of recoveries, he said;
“I am happy to break to you, my good people of Lagos, the news of the release today (on Thursday) of 11 more patients from our facility in Yaba. They have fully recovered and have tested negative to #COVID19 and have been allowed to return home to their families.
The patients include two females and nine males. Their results came out negative in two rounds of tests. I want to use this opportunity to, once again, thank our frontline health workers and other professionals for their service.
Let me reiterate that this is not the time to relax, but to maintain our vigilance because of the community infection that we are beginning to see. I assure you that in the end, we will hoist a flag of victory – with your cooperation and by the grace of the Almighty.”
