The new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) started in Wuhan City of China on December 31st 2019As at August 3,2020 a total of 18,056,310 million cases had been diagnosed globally with over 689,219 deaths with cases in Nigeria snowballing gradually becoming lethal. Given Nigeria’s socio-economic and demographic significance to African continent, it is imperative to understand the cultural norms that may aid or obstructs prevention and treatment of the disease in order to halt its transmission. Data for study came from the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and other publicly available data sources supported with PEN-3 cultural model developed in 1989 by Airhihenbuwa. The model places culture at the core of the development, implementation and evaluation of successful public health interventions.

The paper suggested that dominant cultures, civilization and religious practices should be adhered to, adopted as the case may be for restrictions such physical distancing, hand hygiene, use of face masks and another prophylactic regimen to flatten the curve of the pandemic in Nigeria and likely occurrence of similar disease in future.

The main aim of the article is a complex analysis of theoretical and empirical sources concerning substance abuse in individuals with disabilities. Furthermore, we were concerned with measuring the quality of life (QoL) and general social-demographic indicators in incarcerated individuals abusing substances. We questioned 348 incarcerated adults in 17 Czech prison facilities. The questionnaire was composed of two QoL measuring instruments, AlQol9 and SQUALA, and several questions dealing with social status of the imprisoned. The results show reduced QoL among imprisoned individuals and significantly reduced QoL among prisoners with behavioral problems, psychiatric problems, mental retardation and special group of permanently unemployable prisoners. Prisoners abusing substances showed significantly lower social status. Among the proposed changes in dealing with substance abusing incarcerated individuals are individualized treatment program and substance abuse treatment in prisons.
