Beyond the petri dish: Preparing labs that could change the next epidemic
The emergency underscores a need for deliberate and sustained investment in the country’s health security–the only way to ensure Nigeria is better prepared.
Today, at the Presidential Steering Committee on COVID-19 (PSC-COVID-19) press briefing, DG Dr Chikwe Ihekweazu highlighted the need to ensure the safe reopening of schools.
“Children are not immune to #COVID19, they can easily be infected and also spread the disease."
“We are ready to work with any school authority in Nigeria with suspected cases of #COVID19 through the various States"
- DG at PSC-COVID-19 press briefing
