  • Popular Hollywood actor, Jackie Chan, has offered the sum of N48.7 million in the bid to end coronavirus
    • Jackie said that he would give the sum to whoever finds a cure to the disease
    • It should be noted that the disease has claimed around 2,000 lives with thousands of people infected.

The coronavirus death toll continues to rise, making global headlines in the process. In a bid to help, actor Jackie Chan has offered R2 million (N48,768,880.00) reward in exchange for an antidote. The pressure to get the coronavirus outbreak under control is on as the death toll keeps rising.

Now veteran actor Jackie Chan has climbed on board in an attempt to find a solution, offering a 1 million yuan (N48,768,880.00) reward for the development of an antidote.

Legit.ng reported that the virus is thought to have originated in Wuhan, China and has since claimed 1400 lives with over 60000 infections to date.

“I have a ‘naive’ idea now. No matter which individual or organisation develops the antidote, I want to thank them with 1 million yuan.” The actor insists the move was not about money, but about preventing his people from suffering and “fighting a virus until some of them are dead when they should be enjoying life”. The World Health Organisation, in light of the continued severity of the situation, has declared the outbreak a global health emergency. While no confirmed cases have been reported in South Africa, suspected cases were reported in Limpopo and KwaZulu-Natal.

The Department of Health later confirmed that the patients had tested negative for the disease, even after undergoing the mandatory quarantine period.
