Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Monday commissioned a Permanent Triage and Oxygen Therapy Centre at Eti-Osa Local Government to provide swift emergency oxygen therapy to residents who require such service.

Sanwo-Olu noted that with the construction and decentralisation of the Triage and Oxygen Therapy Centres, citizens requiring oxygen therapy would not have to travel a long distance to Mainland Infectious Disease Hospital to access care.

The Governor explained that the facility which is a permanent facility will be an addition to the existing infrastructure in the hospital, noting that the facility after the pandemic can be used for other medical purposes.

He said other Permanent Triage and Oxygen Therapy Centres, located in Alimosho, Isolo, Surulere, Gbagada, Ifako-Ijaiye, Ibeju-Lekki, Apapa, Mushin and Amuwo-Odofin areas of the State, are almost completed and would be activated in two weeks.
