The Commissioner for Health in Lagos State, Prof. Akin Abayomi, has said that most of the people who have died from coronavirus in the state died in private hospitals.
He said the state government was being proactive because it was better to be over-prepared than to be under-prepared.
According to him, new isolation centres are being built to add more bed spaces aside the hotel facilities that had been provided by the state government that would be converted to isolation centres.
He implored residents that have symptoms of COVID-19 not to stay at home, as it complicates issues.
He also disclosed that only three of the 20 local councils in Lagos State have not recorded a single case of Coronavirus.
He said there were no cases of the virus in Ojo, Epe and Ajeromi-Ifelodun local councils while Eti-Osa, Lagos Mainland and Ikeja were the three local councils with the highest cases of COVID-19.
