The Presidential Task Force on Coronavirus (COVID-19) says the Case Fatality Rate (CFR) is on the decline in the last five months but there is need for caution. Mr Boss Mustapha, the PTF Chairman and Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), said this during the daily briefing of the task force on Monday in Abuja.“We wish him and all other frontline workers that risked their lives but contracted the virus in the process, safe and speedy recovery. “This unexpected news is a grim reminder that the virus is no respecter of persons or the positions they hold. Everyone is at risk and we must take responsibility.“What the announcement of Prof. Abayomi has shown is that stigmatisation has no place in our national response and that COVID-19 is not a death sentence. We therefore thank all those that have come out to announce their status and/or tell their stories and we urge Nigerians to take a queue to eliminate disbelief and skepticism.”The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Nigeria reached the unenviable record of 1,000 fatalities on Aug. 23.The CFR in the last five months are as follows:April 30 — 3%May 31 — 2.8%June 30 — 2.3%July 31 — 2.0%Aug 22 — 1.92%.Source: Guardian
