The National leader of the All Progressive Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has warned that Nigeria’s health care system cannot handle a coronavirus pandemic on like America and Europe.
Tinubu who made the above position in a statement he wrote in commemoration of his 68th birthday, therefore called on the government and the citizens to do everything to curb the spread of the virus.
The former Lagos State governor said, “The public health care systems of developed nations have been overwhelmed by this virus. They are running out of equipment and healthy doctors.
“Our public health care system is much smaller and less equipped than those in Europe and North America. We cannot afford to put undue pressure on our system because it cannot bear the great weight of a pandemic.
“Thus, it is incumbent on us to thoroughly implement and obey social safety and distancing techniques so that we halt the spread of the disease and keep hospitalization to the barest possible minimum.”
