We Are Yet To Reach The Peak Of The Coronavirus Pandemic In Lagos – Prof. Akin Abayomi

Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Prof Akin Abayomi has come out to say that covid-19 cases might reach 120,000 between July and August.
He recently revealed that with the present trend of the case of the pandemic, Lagos might be battling the peak of the outbreak before September.

According to him, residents should just continue to abide by safety measures as the state government gets ready to increase its capacity and strategies to tackle any future reality.
He added that we have obviously not reached the peak of the outbreak in Lagos so everyone should remain careful.
