Lagos State Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, on Saturday disclosed that the state had enlisted 600 patients for the planned chloroquine clinical trials.

The state discharged 45 more patients on Saturday.

Omotoso said an independent board, which would be inaugurated, would monitor the process and give necessary advice to the state government on the progress of the trial.

Omotoso said, “In summary, we will be looking at about 600 patients. The trial will go on till we recruit the required number. There will be an independent Data and Safety Board. The board can advise that study be discontinued if the statistical evidence of the usefulness of a drug is overwhelming and in which case it becomes unethical to withhold it from other groups.”

Also, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has said the state was better able to handle COVID-19 given the experience it had with Ebola six years ago.


“That was also epic in Lagos and it gave Lagos some understanding about how serious infectious disease could be managed. We have an Infectious Disease Hospital in Yaba and even after the Ebola case, we had some international grants and over the last two to three years, we have built what we call a biosecurity lab level four, which can match any of its kind in the world,” he said.

I think a report came from the USA that chloroquine is not working(We don't know I true anyway)

confusion!!! but the medics say chloroquine aint the cure for Covid19

600 patients?
Hope it works tho.

Testing! Testing!! Testing!!!

Hope it works.

they should update themselves......new research that came out yesterday says that chloroquine hasten the death of coronavirus patients and another research said remdevisir is becoming more efficient in curing corona faster

Why not 50 patients ??..Am 100% in for
anything to cur this disease.
But wait oh,
What's the cure for the discharges once ??



..Meanwhile

Lagos State lead others follow

Abeg Sanwo-Olu should help us in Oyo State, because the imbecilic Audio Governor is just curing covid 19 with media hogwash and propaganda

So which drug was used on those that have recovered

Lagos state govt is working...unlike the governor of my state,ifeanyi okowa of delta state.

i wonder if the man'll ever get close to the gate of heaven let alone making heaven...e go just clear to me say PDP don hijack the system be dat.

Why go back to your vomit? You never gave it a trial before condemning the claims. Well we hope it works. Anything that alleviates this problem is welcomed.

We are just running trials on what has failed in other countries

All this move is just to loot to treasury.

People will be so much amazed when they see the expenditure of the Federal and State government on this pandemic.

It will be explosive!

Damn Niggarrrrs

Una want to kill them
After scientist saying it will only increase there chances of deaths

Nigeria nah scam

Issorite

Sad thing is that this is a waste of time.This will not do anything.

On 12 April, a preliminary clinical trial conducted at a hospital in Brazil was stopped when several people given high doses of chloroquine for COVID‑19 infection developed irregular heart rates, causing eleven deaths.

According to Johns Hopkins' ABX Guide for COVID‑19, "HCQ may cause prolonged QT, and caution should be used in critically ill COVID‑19 patients who may have cardiac dysfunction or if combined with other drugs that cause QT prolongation".


The truth is that Chloroquine, Hydroxychloroquine, Azithromycin, Losartan, Remdesivir and Kaletra does not cure covid-19..
We should learn to accept this.

But they can however be used to manage symptoms but it does not cure it...it also has adverse effects in some people and should not be used generally for all cases.

Please also note that many people have recovered without using those drugs

Let's see how it goes

Lab rats, issokay

Anything to Decrease numbers of cases

DannyJ19:
So which drug was used on those that have recovered

remdevisir or normal herb concussion like lemon,ginger, thyme,garlic etc depend on the mildness

It is well.

I hate clinical trials, it can damage one's kidney if it goes wrong. I hope the people that are going through this are aware of the health implications.
