In line with efforts to ensure that the spread of the virus is curtailed, the federal government has again appealed to Nigerians to adhere strictly to safety protocols.
Speaking at the presidential task force (PTF) on COVID-19 briefing in Abuja on Monday, Boss Mustapha, the PTF chairman, expressed disappointment over the current state of affairs, and called for more caution.
”Our analysis has shown that people over 50 years of age, especially those with underlying factors, remain most at risk. This position is backed by the fact that 65 percent of fatalities recorded in Nigeria are in this category,” he said.
“That brings me to the need to appeal to Nigerians on the need for a change of behaviour and compliance with guidelines and measures put in place. If you do not need to go outside your home, please stay indoors. Avoid large gatherings and observe all the measures.
“In recent times, our risk communication teams have developed messages aimed at resonating very well with different demographic groups.
“The common string is the message for compliance and the proper wearing of face masks and coverings in public spaces.”
