COVID-19: Eight weeks old baby recovers in Nigeria
One Nigerian mother and her eight weeks old baby have defeated the dreaded coronavirus after making full recovery from the virus that has taken the lives of so many around the world.
Recall that a fortnight ago, Lagos State Government announced that they had confirmed four cases of the Coronavirus.
Out of these four confirmed cases, were a mother and her six weeks old baby that came back from the United States on Friday, 13th of March, 2020 via Virgin Atlantic airlines.
The news was very disheartening for Nigerians as they were very particular about the little baby that was infected with the virus.
