Businessman Strive Masiyiwa has urged Africans to adopt what he calls the 'ITTIT' formula to fighting the spread of the COVID-19 Coronavirus epidemic as governments across the continent gradually ease national lockdown restrictions imposed to reign-in the spread of the disease.
Writing on his popular Facebook blog following his appointment by the African Union as a Special Envoy to Coordinate the Africa Private Sector Initiative for the Procurement of Personal Protective Equipment and other Essential Supplies, Masiyiwa says the key to stopping the disease in its tracks is to adopt the formula #ITTIT; inform, test, trace, isolate and treatment as a collaborative effort among the private sector, NGOs, businesses and faith-based organizations.
Unfortunately, this test needs to be taken at least seven days from the time you are infected, which means you could have unknowingly infected a lot of people during that time.
Once you identify people who have tested positive for COVID-19, they must be isolated in a safe place from others, until the virus is out of their system.
As soon as someone tests positive for the virus, the health authorities will want to sit them down and learn about their #Contacts to help them, their families and others in their community stay safe.
According to information on the Centers for Disease and Control Prevention (CDC) website, “Two kinds of tests are available for COVID-19: viral tests and antibody tests.
With so much still unknown about immunity to COVID-19 and dozens and dozens of antibody tests that have not been rigorously validated, experts worry that widespread antibody screening may give those who test positive a false sense of security.
With other diseases, the presence of antibodies often means you have acquired immunity against re-infection, for at least some period of time, but that is not known yet in the case of COVID-19.
An accurate antibody test would help the scientists and researchers gather the data on who has gotten the virus, including those who’ve showed no symptoms of being sick.
We now know from all of this that a positive antibody test may not necessarily mean you’re safe from ever getting the virus again.
