THE Nigeria Centre for Disease Control has joined the first global movement of World Mask Week to motivate Nigerians to wear facemasks toward reducing the spread of COVID-19 infection.
The initiative was from a coalition of organisations, including the Pandemic Action Network , the World Health Organisation, Africa CDC and private companies working to mitigate the effects of COVID-19 globally. Ihekweazu said the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Federal Ministry of Health, NCDC and partner organisations within the country would run activities for WMW.
“The WMW movement encourages people and businesses around the world to rally behind the importance of wearing a facemask properly, not only during WMW, but daily until a vaccine that can prevent the infection is readily accessible to all citizens.’’
