COVID-19 DEATHS AND VACCINATION IN NIGERIA: AN APPRAISAL
West African Journal of Medicine
|December 10, 2023
Summary
COVID-19 deaths in Nigeria were higher before vaccination began. Vaccination rollout coincided with a significant decline in COVID-19 mortality, indicating its positive impact on reducing deaths.
Area of Science:
- Epidemiology
- Public Health
- Infectious Disease Dynamics
Background:
- Estimates suggest a disproportionately high mortality rate in Africa, including Nigeria, due to delayed and insufficient COVID-19 vaccination.
- The study addresses the impact of vaccination on COVID-19 deaths following the formal declaration of the pandemic phase's end.

01:30Pneumonia V: Nursing management and Prevention
2.1K
Nursing management of pneumonia involves promoting airway patency, facilitating rest and conserving energy, encouraging fluid intake, maintaining nutrition, and educating patients.
The nurse must practice strict medical asepsis and adhere to infection control guidelines to minimize healthcare-associated infections.
Enhance airway patency
Position the patient correctly to facilitate drainage of the affected lung segments. Manual or mechanical percussion and vibration can also be employed....

01:30Pneumonia I: Introduction
242
Pneumonia is an acute respiratory infection that targets the lungs, specifically the alveoli. These tiny air sacs, essential for oxygen exchange, become engorged with pus and fluid, severely hindering breathing, decreasing oxygen absorption, and causing significant pain and discomfort during respiration.
