The rate of increase in Nigeria is becoming alarming especially in Lagos and Abuja. Let's get it right now it does not matter the country. So even if you like stay under this sun for 10 hours cooking yourself, lol. It does not have any effect on the virus once inside you. You are only causing more harm to yourself. Prevention the best way out.

Let's not easily believe what we hear. Always seek for facts from the right sources. sometimes. The religious leader preaching to you is not knowledgeable enough more than the medical professional when it relates to matters concerning your health. Let us call a spade a spade. When they preach the wrong thing, they need to be corrected, they are not gods.

Taking antibiotics cures Corona virus

This is totally false and not true. The mechanism of action of antibiotics is totally different from antiretroviral drugs. Antibiotics are only used to treat bacterial infections and they are never effective against viral diseases. Coronavirus is a viral not a bacterial disease.

🚨Taking chloroquine prevents or cures coronavirus

Not too long ago there were too many cases of reported chloroquine intoxication after the news went viral that chloroquine can be used to cure coronavirus.

Hydroxychloroquine is a potential dangerous drugs that could be toxic to the body system. They are still under critical investigation for treatment but not used to prevent the disease.

This still does not mean you should go about buying the drugs or bd on self medication which is very dangerous. if you feel the symptoms of the disease contact the regulatory body in your region or state rather than treating yourself. Currently there is no recommended or certified drug of chiice for cure of coronavirus.

🚨Using expensive antibiotics soaps and spraying bleach prevents the virus.

This is not true you don't have to go as far as buying expensive soaps. Any soap at all can kill the virus. As long as it is able to removes dirts and forms lather on usage, you are good to go. You don't have to spend so much in a bid to keep yourself clean.

Any soap at all can solve, so save that money for expensive soaps. Possibly use it to buy more sanitizers and face masks if need be.

You will only be doing more harm to yourself by spraying bleach on your body, this is very dangerous. Never try it.

🚨Coronavirus affects some religion only.

This is just so ridiculous. Whether you are a Christian in Muslim or whatever religion you belong to coronavirus does not care. It does not respect any God or gods. It can affect anyone without exception.

🚨Drinking and gargling with hot water cures coronavirus.

Well it is true that drinking warm water can bring some soooting effect to the throat due to the sore throat associated with coronavirus but it does not have direct effect on the Corona virus.

Well it is true that drinking warm water can bring some soooting effect to the throat due to the sore throat associated with coronavirus but it does not have direct effect on the Corona virus.

Once you are infected you are infected, the Only way out is treatment as soon as possible. There's no point loading your system with hot water, you will only end up increasing your body temperature unnecessarily and causing more harm to yourself. Kindly seek medical attention.

🚨Taking extra amount of vitamin C cures corona virus.

It is true that vitamin C helps to boost the immune system so that it can fight off the virus, but still this does not mean you should take an overdose of vitamin C. Taking overdose can lead to complications. Take normal dosage as required, for adults 95 mg per day.
