At least twenty doctors have been tested positive for COVID-19 at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, UITH.

According to the President of UITH chapter of Association of Resident Doctors (ARD), Badmus Habeeb, in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Wednesday in Ilorin, members of the association were battling with the pandemic based on available resources.

“About 20 of our members have been infected with the virus in the past two to three weeks.

“I must reiterate that this is not the best of times for us, our families and the affected patients,” he said.

Mr Habeeb, however, said that the discovery of COVID-19 vaccine has brought hope and relief to the people.
