We are really religious in Nigeria. I recently lost a patient cause she was taken to church h for prayers before she was brought to the hospital. She came in very critical.

There needs to be a line drawn between religion and health in Africa. We need to understand that a religious home is not a medical center, and a medical center isn't a place for religious practice. I guess a lot of medical doctors have learned the latter I discussed, and that is why they do not mix medical diagnoses with religious thoughts.
I agree with you, however, the poor socioeconomic factor is mostly the reason people seek religion first.
