Abayomi said;

“Now that we’ve completed the fourth wave, we’re unsure what will happen next.”

“However, we want to be prepared, and the State Governor has stated that we must meet certain targets this year, so we’ll go back to the drawing board, as there is some vaccination apprehension in Lagos.”

“We need to figure out how to make it easier for Lagosians to get these immunizations.” Vaccines have been shown to be beneficial in reducing the risk of severe sickness from Covid. It doesn’t protect you from Covid-19 so much as it keeps you from becoming terribly ill or even dying, which is exactly what we don’t want in Lagos: people getting sick and dying. We don’t care if you get a cold or Covid; we just want you to get better.

“The Omicron variation didn’t seem to impact the lungs as seriously as the Delta variant did in this fourth wave, thus most persons were managed at home.”
