National Agency for Food, Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has warned Nigerians against the use of Covifor Remidesivir 100 mg Injection for treatment of any illness.
NAFDAC Director-General, Mojisola Adeyeye, disclosed this in a statement in Abuja.
According to her, the label on the vaccine indicates that it was “not for distribution in the United States, Canada or European Union,” thus creating suspicion about its efficacy.
