With coronavirus fast spreading across the world with over 8000 infected persons and over 200 deaths recorded, many are now afraid to the point of going to the extreme to protect themselves.
Below are pictures showing how people around the world are protecting themselves against the virus.
Meanwhile, Nigeria’s Minister of Health, Ehanire Osagie has said that the Federal Government can’t regulate the price of sanitizers and face mask which have more than tripled in price since coronavirus was confirmed in Nigeria.
Speaking on Channels Television, Ehanire said, “The government is concerned about prices going up. But you see, we operate a market autonomy. Those who are traders and suppliers are doing a brisk business by trying to increase importation and those who manufacture are also doing a brisk business scaling up the manufacturing of all these products.
“So it is not surprising that the prices go up at the moment. The government makes sure that those agencies and organisations that need to have these materials have them.”
