A national surveillance dataset between 27 February 6 June 2020 retrospectively analysed, confirmatory testing for done by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). primary outcomes were cumulative incidence (CI) case fatality (CF). total 40 926 persons (67% 60 839) had complete records RT-PCR test across 35 states Federal Capital...
Objective Despite the increasing disease burden, there is a dearth of context-specific evidence on risk factors for COVID-19 positivity and subsequent death in Nigeria. Thus, study objective was to identify associated with testing positive fatality Design Retrospective cohort study.

The outcome variable amongst persons who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by Reverse-Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction. Incidence rates calculated dividing number deaths total person-time...
