Nigeria confirmed 22 new coronavirus infections on Sunday, with no deaths reported across four states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
According to the new infection data, 2022 will be the year with the minimum daily infections.
The number of newly confirmed cases has diminished, according to the latest numbers released by the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) late Sunday night.
The number of new infections reduced to 1,258 from 2,617 in the second week of 2022, according to the recent COVID-19 situation report, which covered the third week of 2022, from January 17 to 23, 2022.
While the death toll has varied, the data suggests that 21 people died this week, with five and one instances recorded from the FCT and Taraba, respectively.
According to the most recent figures, the additional cases have brought the total number of infections in Nigeria to 253,023, while the death toll continues at 3,135.
The data breakdown revealed that Osun State topped the infection table with only nine cases due to a paucity of data from Lagos State, the disease’s centre.
With six cases, FCT came in second, while Delta reported a four-case backlog for January 28 and 29, 2022.
With a single case, Kano was last on the list, while Rivers State had two cases.
According to the NCDC, Bauchi, Oyo Sokoto, Ondo, Plateau Bayelsa, Ogun, and Kaduna all reported no infections on Sunday.
