Covid-19: Why Gov. Seyi Makinde, Others Recovered So Fast - NCDC Reveals Top Secret

By News Proof 

Dr. Chikwe Ihekweazu, the Director General of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC),  has disclosed that about 90% of dreaded COVID-19 patients recovered without any treatment.

Chikwe made this disclosure while responding to a question on how Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, recovered in less than one week at the  media briefing of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 yesterday in Abuja, 

He said what a COVID-19 patient usually requires is support for the body to recovby itself.

“We should remember that 90 per cent of these patients recover without any intervention. So, if you take something and say you recovered and that something is why you recovered, it doesn’t quite add up. So, hopefully, there will be some treatment emerging over the next few years but remember that people recover from many viruses; that’s the way it happens,” he said.

There are very few viruses with a cure. Even the ones that have a bad outcome like lassa fever – 20 per cent of patients die from it – it still means that 80 per cent of patients will recover without any treatment per se. What happens is that the body is supported to recover on its own. So, you go to a hospital and for COVID-19, you’re given oxygen. Oxygen is not really a treatment; it’s to keep you alive for long enough for you to recover yourself.”
