    (Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2020) Abulude, Francis Olawale; Abulude, Ifeoluwa Ayodeji
    The paper was on the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic of Nigeria as well as the effect on age and sex distributions. The assessment of this particular effort was based on the data generated on confirmed deaths, and active cases by the Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) between February and June 2020. The information as of June 2020, revealed that the death cases was 506, even though the confirmed active cases figure was 19808. The confirmed cases for the states followed this particular order: Lagos, FCT, Kano, Rivers, and down to Kogi (probably the least figure recorded), while death rates followed this order: Lagos, FCT, Edo, Oyo, and down to Adamawa State (probably the least figure). The sex distributions of SARS-CoV-2 of the confirmed cases showed that male had a higher number in comparison to female, while in the age distributions, it was noticed that the age groups most affected were: 21 - 30, 31 - 40, 41 - 50, 51 - 60 for each male and female. Approximately 4% (male) as well as 5% (female) had been captured for ages under 10 years old. The sex and age distributions found in Covid-19 vulnerability depict the value of a more clear understanding of the effect of age and sex on incidence as well as case fatality of the virus and also in order to tailor therapy based on age and sex.
