Second Wave: Travels, School Reopening Caused COVID-19 Surge – PTF

The Presidential Task Force on COVID – 19 has said travels, reopening of schools , businesses and religious centres contributed to the rise in coronavirus cases in Nigeria .

Chairman of the PTF and Secretary to the Government of the Federation , Boss Mustapha , made this known on Monday during a media briefing in Abuja .


He said, “ It is however very instructive to stress that factors that have contributed to rise in numbers from late November 2020 included increased local and international travels, business and religious activities , reopening of schools without strict compliance with COIVID -19 safety measures .

“ The full import of the fore- going is to press further on the need for us all to elevate the level of our vigilance and compliance with the recommended non -pharmaceutical interventions .”
Meanwhile, the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control said that confirmed cases of coronavirus have risen to 100 ,087 in the country .

This is coming 45 weeks after the country recorded its first COVID -19 case on February 27 , 2020 , according to data available on NCDC ’s website on Monday , January 11 .
The agency also said that out of the total 100 ,087 COVID – 19 cases , 80 ,030 patients have been discharged while 1 ,358 are dead .
