Breaking News! First Case of Coronavirus Confirmed in Lagos

The statement said, “the case is an Italian citizen who works in Nigeria and returned from Milan, Italy to Lagos, Nigeria on the 25th of February 2020. He was confirmed by the Virology Laboratory of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, part of the Laboratory Network of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control. The patient is clinically stable, with no serious symptoms, and is being managed at the Infectious Disease Hospital in Yaba, Lagos.”

Seems like Italy is the gateway for transmission to many parts of the world. I wonder how many tourists from China ended up in Italy, or if it was a commercial ship.

Regardless, so many nations do not have the resources to handle outbreaks as well as we do. Or did, before Trump.
