On “malaria and typhoid” scam in Nigeria, pls kindly read this and share to everyone you care about.
First things first;
The vast majority of “malaria and typhoid tests” done in Nigeria (especially that popular ‘MP Widal’ test) is a COMPLETE SCAM and an elaborate fraudulent scheme to defraud you while hospitals make money from your ignorance.
Yeah. I’ve said this many times.
And I will say it again:
Pls STOP doing “malaria and typhoid test” IF you are well and feel healthy. The common “widal test” done for typhoid is a largely useless and nonspecific test.
Also routine malaria testing is a useless exercise in a country like Nigeria where malaria is endemic because almost everybody has the malaria parasite in their system- but not everybody needs any treatment as long as they are well and fine in themselves.
The actual cold brutal truth is that many people suffer from some degree of hypochondriasis (which is a health anxiety condition where you persistently believe strongly that something is ‘wrong’ with your body and that you have an undiagnosed illness EVEN THOUGH you are actually well and fine in yourself).
This makes you keep going to hospitals who then exploit your illness anxiety, make you pay for tests you don’t need and end up giving antimalaria and antibiotics medicines you don’t need to treat an illness that only exists in your imagination. This is why some of you keep “treating malaria and typhoid” every month and it never goes away.
You know why? You never had any malaria or typhoid that needs treating. What you need is to STOP doing unnecessary tests and STOP spending you don’t have to treat a malaria that doesn’t exist. And if this persistent health anxiety is overwhelming for you, pls go see a therapist or a mental health expert to help address the hypochondriasis and persistent health anxiety.
Don’t get me wrong:
I am NOT saying all malaria/typhoid testing is useless. NO. I have not said that.
What I am saying is that if you are well and healthy in yourself, you do NOT need any malaria or typhoid tests.
If you have malaria symptoms like fever, vomiting, diarrhea (especially bloody diarrhea), recent travel outside the country or recent visit to somewhere where you drank unclean water and ate unhygienic food, severe headaches, new bitter taste in your mouth, not being able to eat or drink, abdominal pain and you feel very weak and unwell; then yes, you should get tested and treated. This makes perfect medical sense.
But to go and be getting “malaria typhoid test” randomly and on a routine regular basis like you are going to the salon for a new hairstyle, is an absolute waste of your time, and waste of your money.
Malaria testing is ONLY relevant IF you are not well. As I said before, in Nigeria, millions of people are bitten regularly by mosquitoes and so they will have a positive malaria test result if you routinely and randomly test.
There is NO need to “treat” a person who is well and healthy in themselves. The hospitals won’t tell you this because they need to make money: and many of you won’t still listen because you like to waste your money.
Anyway the bottom line is simple:
IF you are well and feel fine in yourself,
THERE IS NO NEED FOR ANY MALARIA OR TYPHOID TESTS.
It is far better to convert this energy you use chasing unnecessary wasteful malaria tests (when you are well and don’t need it) use that energy instead to regularly check your blood pressure, your blood sugar and your weight at least once every year- because the highest risk factors for kidney failure, heart attack, stroke, unexplained paralysis and sudden death in young people is undetected/untreated high blood pressure, high blood sugar and unmanaged excessive weight. This is a far more important use of your time and money.
Pls kindly read and share this post.
You never know who this information will save their life and save their money.
Thank you.
