“We cannot deny many Nigerians still react to any reference to #COVID19 with disbelief.

The virus is here and community transmission is occurring mostly silently, we should do all we can to prevent the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants capable of evading whatever immune protections we currently enjoy”
