#TakeResponsibility, wear a face mask covering your nose and mouth to protect yourself and those around you.
A sudden loss of taste and smell with fever, headache or runny nose may be #COVID19 and NOT malaria.

Do NOT ignore these symptoms.

Get tested and stay safe.

📚#NCDCPublication

Risk perception is a key area in health & risk communication that affects how people deal with hazards.

The comparatively lower incidence & case fatality of #COVID19 in Nigeria has been hypothesised to contribute to the low perception of risk in the country.

In our latest peer-reviewed article, we published findings of an analysis conducted on the changes in public risk perception during the first and second waves of #COVID19Nigeria.
