COVID-19: We Are Now Focused On Kano – NCDC

The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control says it is now focusing a lot of its energies on Kano, rather than Lagos, in its coronavirus response.

“It is not because Lagos is not important,” the NCDC boss said, adding that they will continue to support the state, which has the highest number of confirmed coronavirus cases. According to the NCDC, only 342 cases and six deaths have been recorded in Kano as at Sunday evening. Kano now has at least two molecular facilities – at the Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital and Bayero University – that can test for the virus.
