The Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has urged Lagosians to consider any malaria-like symptoms experienced as COVID-19 infection unless and until proven otherwise.

The governor said this on Tuesday during a Press Conference on COVID-19 Update at the Lagos House, Ikeja, following the increase in number of recorded cases of coronavirus in the country.

He, therefore, advised that anyone with such symptoms should proceed to any of the state’s public health facilities or laboratories to get tested for free, noting that “seeking help early and quickly significantly improves the chances of survival for severe to critical cases.”

Governor Sanwo-Olu also noted that it is important that residents begin to learn to live and act responsibly, in order to augment the government’s efforts and previous success of flattening the curve.

According to the governor, the second wave of the virus has now necessitated the need for more oxygen plants in the country, as well as the reopening of some of the previously closed isolation centres, such as the INDO Isolation Centre and Gbagada Isolation Center to contain the rising cases and re-flattening the curve in the shortest possible time.
