At least 200 doctors in Lagos State have contracted coronavirus (COVID-19) while battling the virus.
This is according to the Medical Guild in its response to an earlier statement from the state government on the ongoing warning strike by doctors in the state.
In a statement jointly signed by the association’s Chairman and Secretary, Dr Oluwajimi Sodipo and Dr Ismail Ajibowo, on Tuesday, the group said the government was aware of the situation.
It decried that while members were committed to their duties, a large number of those who tested positive have infected members of their families.
The guild also accused the government of making attempts to portray it as being unprofessional and casting untrue impression that the strike was masterminded by a few members of the association.
It stressed that the association has an objective to cater for the welfare of its members and provide world-class medical services to the people.
Furthermore, it said the government had ignored its call – one of the reasons for the decision to go on strike.
