Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, today August 1, announced that the state has in the last two weeks witnessed a decline in the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases.
He announced this when he spoke at the press briefing
The governor said “We must, however, mention that we have seen a gradual decrease in the positivity rate in Lagos State over the last two weeks which combined with our increase in the testing numbers, points to a very encouraging picture of the outcome of our response strategy in the state. We will continue to fine-tune our strategy and our efforts to build on our successes and close all existing gaps if any.”
Governor Sanwo-Olu said the state is winning the battle against the dreaded virus largely due to the increase in the number of tested samples.
