Doctors at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) have delivered a 22-year-old coronavirus patient of twins.
The latest is the fourth expectant mother to be successfully assisted in delivery at LUTH despite being diagnosed with COVID-19.
The twins were birthed on Tuesday through cesarean section weighed 3.2kg and 3.25kg.
According to a tweet by LUTH, chairman of the hospital’s Medical Advisory Committee (MAC) said the twins – a girl and a boy – and their mother, are doing well.
“Once again, celebrate our committed frontline staff for this achievement.
“We also appreciate the support of the Federal Government, Lagos State Government and the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, NCDC,” the CMAC said.
