On 27th May, Baru arrived at the NNPC Clinic.He was received in the clinic by nurses. He was attended to by doctors. MLS took his sample. They ran test using rapid test kits which is not approved for use yet.
His result came back negative. It was not until his condition got worse, then he was transferred to Cedar crest hospital Abuja. Where a Throat swab was taken and the result came back positive.
About 15 health workers including Nurses, doctors, MLS and attendants, that attended to him are complaining of lack of PPEs and for my assessment they are poorly trained on IPC too.4. Everyone working at NNPC Clinic Maitama especially those that attended to him and all patients are all at risk.
NCDC should shut down the clinic immediately for fumigation! #Copied
My take: This are the elders, leaders, hospitals and politicians we have in the country. May God Almighty help us. The interstate lockdown should continue, people need to be responsible. Imagine the ripple effect. Imagine the number of Families, Friends, Lovers exposed to this. People still think and act like there’s no covid19 or it’s gone on break. God Almighty help us. May God Almighty grant the soul of Mallam Baru eternal rest.
