Following the release of over 1600 coronavirus patients from treatment centres on Friday, August 14, 2020, the total number of discharged cases of the diseases in Nigeria nears 36,000.


               
           
               
                   

The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) confirmed 329 more cases in the country on Friday, and that brought the total number of confirmed cases of coronavirus infections to 48,445.
