“It is important to emphasise that the NCDC does not provide results to individuals.”
Nigeria Centre for Disease Control has said its role is not to provide coronavirus test results to individuals but to “coordinates communication” of test results between its laboratories and states.
“Our role as the national public health institute is to coordinate the communication of results between testing laboratories and States, who then communicate with individuals,” it added. Raymond Dokpesi jnr, chairman of DAAR Communications Plc, after his discharge on Friday also shared same sentiment.
“Whilst I can attest to my improvement in physical health and wellbeing, I regret to say that since my initial test to date, I have never seen any documentary evidence of any test result,” Dokpesi said.
