Risk perception is a key area in health & risk communication that affects how people deal with hazards.

The comparatively lower incidence & case fatality of #COVID19 in Nigeria has been hypothesised to contribute to the low perception of risk in the country.

In our latest peer-reviewed article, we published findings of an analysis conducted on the changes in public risk perception during the first and second waves of #COVID19Nigeria.

#AntimicrobialResistance is when medicines like antimalarials, tetracycline, Septrin, Ampicillin etc. no longer treat diseases they cure previously.

Using medicines “anyhow” is making the treatment of common infections. difficult.

Let us work together to save medicines.
