0

The World Health Organisation has listed Nigeria as one among the 13 high-risk African countries for coronavirus. These African nations have direct links of travel to China.

The countries are Algeria, Angola, Ivory Coast, DR Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mauritius, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia. It has been discovered that people can spread the Wuhan coronavirus before symptoms set in.

German researchers found that the virus was transmitted by people without symptoms in five instances in one cluster of people: from a parent to a daughter; from that daughter to two colleagues; and from one of those colleagues to two other coworkers.

You will also recall that Nigeria shut down a Chinese supermarket in Abuja due to the recent outbreak and spread of Coronavirus.
