About 20 doctors in Kwara State have become infected with COVID-19 within the past three weeks.
President of the Association of Resident Doctors (ARD) of the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH), Dr Badmus Habeeb, disclosed this to Channels Television during a phone interview on Wednesday.
He lamented that members of the association are battling with the pandemic “based on the available resources”.
“About 20 of our members have become infected in the last two to three weeks.
“I must reiterate that this is not the best of times for us, our families and the affected patients,” he said.
Habeeb, however, noted that the discovery of vaccines have brought hope and relief for everyone.
