, Owerri. Prof. Yongabi is a member of the African Union Scientific Research and Innovation Council and a consultant to the WHO HPD Afro Health Literacy for Youths and Adolescents. In this interview with, Yongabi, who is also a co-founder, COO and principal research person at STK Biotech, Owerri advised Nigeria and other African countries to adopt modern and traditional medicine to tackle COVID-19 and other infectious diseases.
We have equally had Coronaviruses that caused an epidemic in the past like SARS COVID-2. There was also the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome . But, there are fears that they could be overwhelmed. I commend the governments in Africa for the efforts they have put towards the fight against COVID-19. I think what they need to do is build health infrastructure that is resilient not only to address COVID-19 but to pre-empt future and re-emerging infections.
What I mean by evolutionary is because it will be evolving over time. Other generations will come in and see what is already in the process. They learn the process and inject new knowledge into the system and it keeps on growing. That is the meaning of evolutionary. Then, learning. We all know that there’s no one who can call himself an expert on this pandemic. That’s why you realise that knowledge dynamics keep changing. This will occur with different pandemics.
They are waiting for USA..even our own Prof who found a vaccine sent it to the US for them to 'confirm' even when we have the virus in our backyard..China/Russia must be laughing🙄😃😆🤗😎
