Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos state, says four COVID-19 patients have been discharged.

Sanwo-Olu broke the news on Saturday.

He restated the government’s effort to contain the spread of the disease and asked all residents to stay at home and follow health guidelines.

This brings the number of patients that have recovered and have been discharged from the state to 94.

The state earlier recorded three deaths.

The victims were two males and a female. Two of the deceased had underlying health issues.

“Today, 4 more persons; 3 males and 1 female were discharged to join the society,” Sanwo-Olu said.

“The patients; 2 from the Infectious Disease Hospital, Yaba and 2 others from Onikan Isolation Centre have fully recovered and tested negative twice consecutively to #COVID19.

“This brings the number of patients successfully managed and discharged from our isolation facilities to 94. #StayAtHome #TakeResponsibility #LagosAgainstCOVID19.

” Lagos has lost 13 people to #COVID19. Each person had a unique story and came from a different background.

” Today, we mourn them and recommit to doing all we can to slow the spread of #COVID19.

“The risks are real, let’s #StayAtHome and follow guidelines from @LSMOH and @NCDCgov.”
