The NCDC said that there is no cure yet for COVID-19, but, its supportive management of cases involves the management of symptoms, management of pre-existing conditions, Supplemental oxygen therapy, treatment of bacterial infection, and ensuring patients that were well-nourished and hydrated.
The NCDC, however, called on Nigerians not to pull their mask down their chin.
“You can speak, cough or sneeze inside your mask, then wash or dispose of properly,” it said.
