Its interesting how the #world has been delivering #ventilators around #Africa, however many places don't have a stable supply of power, stable supply of oxygen tanks and probably can't run an oxygen concentrating machine even if they had one. #Africahealth#Africacdc#Nigeria .
Imagine the cost, and imagine this cost being taken away from everyday patients who will show up with other diseases.How long can this onslaught response be sustained and where is the breaking point?.
A video was circulating in Nigeria of a patient thought to be a corona virus infected patient, he was coughing blood, no one dared come near him, he later was taken to the isolation center and was diagnosed with severe #hypertension with #acute#pulmonary#edema. The patient subsequently died. He was virus negative but couldn't get help because of fear and a lack of PPE in the general hospitals.
