covid-19
Dr. Ifedayo Adetifa, the Director-General of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control has predicted that Nigeria will likely see an increase in COVID-19 cases and a decrease in hospitalisation over the holiday season this year.
In an exclusive interview, Adetifa claimed that the increase in travel over the holiday season might result in a rise in cases.
He said, “We are prepared to see that there may be a bump in cases just because of the increase in travel and the number of people returning. What we may not expect to see is an increasing number of people who are sick.”
The NCDC boss said vaccination and previous COVID-19 infections provided some degrees of immunity.
“The population has quite a bit of immunity due to vaccination, previous COVID-19 infection, or repeated COVID-19 infection. So. COVID-19 is not new. The Omicron is not new like it was in November (2021).
