The Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Akin Abayomi, on Monday morning has revealed that 2683 persons who have tested positive for COVID-19 in the state, are yet to turn up for admission in the different care centres either due to ignorance/fear of stigmatization or because they have chosen the home care method.

Abayomi made this disclosure while giving an update on the COVID-19 cases in Lagos state- which has remained the state with the highest number of cases in Nigeria since the first case was recorded in February this year.
