The state is responsible for over 30% of total confirmed cases across the country and the second wave of the pandemic has made the fight more hectic for the health workers on the front line as well as the authorities.
Arise News was among a select media team granted guided access to the Infectious Disease Hospital in Yaba which is the command and control centre of the fight against Covid-19 in Lagos.

Tokunbo Oyetunji brings us an account of the daily struggle of Covid-19 patients at the hospital and how the health workers at the facility are equally struggling to cope with the situation in this special report.
