No State In Nigeria In Coronavirus Free – NCDC

The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) has noted that there is no state in the country that is COVID-19 free.

This was made known by NCDC’s Director-General, Chikwe Ihekweazu, while addressing the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19 today.

He said a state can only talk about being Coronavirus free, when it is testing adequately.

“No state in Nigeria is COVID-19 free. No country in the world is COVID-19 free.

“We can only talk about a state being disease free when we have an effective tool to fight the disease. That will come when we have a vaccine.
