He said that after two\nweeks of his stay at home, people started raising false alarm that he recently\nreturned from Kano with his sick mother, a report which he said was false\nstressing that his mother is healthy over there in Kano State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Christian posited that he was first\ncontacted by health officials from Obowo Local government who then alerted the\nstate health officials and on their coming they searched the whole house\nlooking for his mother who people said he came back with but didn&#8217;t see her\nafter which they contacted her on telephone and she told them that she is\nhealthy and fine over there in Kano State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consequently, his sample was taken to\nEbonyi State for testing and was told that his result will be ready within 48\nhours and incidentally that lasted for one week before they came back with a\nfalse result they never showed to him declaring him Covid-19 positive and\nfollowing that the state Medical Director who led the team told him that he\nwill be taken to Isolation center in FMC Owerri for proper treatment and\nmanagement and as law abiding citizen he followed them to the isolation center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Christian Isiuba disclosed that he\nstayed at the isolation center for eight days where he was been given two\ntablets of Vitamin C morning, afternoon and night as medication for Corona\nvirus treatment but knowing that he has no symptom of &nbsp;Covid-19 refused\ntaking the drugs they gave to him. He reiterated that while in the isolation\ncenter the medical personnel came and took another sample of his for testing\nand up till the time he was released from the Isolation center after eight\ndays, they never showed him his results for the two samples they took for\ntesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He further hinted that what is happening\nat the Imo state isolation center in FMC is like a child&#8217;s play where someone\nwho does not have any symptom of Covid-19 will be taken to isolation center for\na reason he does not know maintaining that even some other person&#8217;s he met at\nthe isolation center were healthy without any symptom of the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He opined that the state government is\ndoing all it could to put its name on list as among the state with Corona virus\ncases for a reason best known to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He therefore used the opportunity to\nthank his family members, his community and the medical personnel who showed\nhim love and care all through his stay at the isolation center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tunji Adedeji One of the three discharged patients In Imo State who has been in<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27952,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28519","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-frontpage"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",607,400,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19-300x198.jpg",300,198,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",607,400,false],"large":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",607,400,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",607,400,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",607,400,false],"elegant-magazine-featured":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",607,400,false],"elegant-magazine-medium":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",577,380,false],"elegant-magazine-medium-small":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",300,198,false],"elegant-magazine-thumbnail-small":["https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/covid-19.jpg",50,33,false]},"author_info":{"info":["Imo Trumpeta"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/?cat=3\" rel=\"category\">Frontpage<\/a>","tag_info":"Frontpage","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28519","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28519"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28519\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28520,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28519\/revisions\/28520"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/27952"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28519"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28519"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28519"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
