The Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Boss Mustapha has urged Nigerians to abide by the PTF guidelines to fight COVID-19 as a vaccine won’t be ready until 2021.

Mustapha said, “Ordinarily, from the little literature I have read on COVID 19, we are not expecting any vaccine to be on the shelves until towards the end of 2021. That is for industries that have perfected the processes of manufacturing of this vaccine.”

The PTF boss also challenged the private sector to continue to support the government in order to fortify the health system and infrastructure against present and future pandemics.

Responding to a question, the PTF boss said hotels accommodating Nigerians evacuated from abroad would be decontaminated after 14 days isolation of the returnees before receiving a new batch.

Also, the National Coordinator of the PTF, Dr Sani Aliyu, lamented that large movements of people across state borders were frustrating efforts aimed at containing the pandemic.

He appealed to security agencies to rise to the challenge and stop the trend, except for essential services.
