Daily statistics from the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) shows that between Monday, May 4 and Tuesday, May 5, a total of 80 new infections had been recorded in Lagos. About 37 cases were confirmed on Monday while on Tuesday, additional 43 were reported.
Although the state on Tuesday alone discharged 60 patients from its various isolation centres, there is, however, growing concern within the government where to keep increasing number of infected cases if the spike continues at the rate being seen.
