The Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 has told Nigerians to beware of the third wave of the virus as being experienced in some countries already.
Boss Mustapha, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation and PTF Chairman, at the briefing of the taskforce in Abuja yesterday, said despite the availability of coronavirus vaccines, Nigeria was not yet out of the woods. He said: “For the avoidance of doubt, the virus is very potent and people still get infected. It’s also a fact that the vaccination process has only just begun." He said about 8,000 Nigerians had received their first dose of the vaccine, adding that no official report of serious adverse effects had been received from any of those vaccinated “but mild side effects such as swelling at the side of the vaccination is expected as this is normal.”
