The doctors, nurses and health workers who were exposed to this patient are scared for their lives.

If this patient does NOT get tested,
These men and women may be infected with Covid19 and never know.

They are at risk.
Their families are at risk.
Other patients are at risk.

Dear @NCDCgov pls look into this matter. Send your agents to Ibom Specialist Hospital in Uyo.

Kindly test the man’s corpse if possible. Kindly isolate/quarantine all health workers exposed to this man. Kindly contact trace and test everyone he came in contact with.

Thank you!
