No fresh case of Ebola in Lagos - Lagos state Government says

The Lagos state government says no fresh case of Ebola virus has been discovered in the state or in any part of the country.

According to the Special Adviser to the Lagos state Governor on Public Health, Dr (Mrs) Yewande Adeshina, all the 59 people who had direct or indirect contact with late Liberian Patrick Sawyer who died last Friday in Lagos from the virus, have been traced, tested and found to be hale and hearty and have not exhibited any unusual body temperature or any other symptoms of the dreaded virus. Continue..


In a related development, the state Commissioner for Information, Lateef Ibirogba advised residents to be wary of the activities of fraudsters who are making spurious claims about their ability to provide cure for the Ebola Virus, urging them to always contact health providers to report unusual feelings noticed as only medical solutions are known to be appropriate for the disease. He warned those making false claims of being able to cure the disease to desist from it or would be made to face the full wrath of the law once they are caught.

He reminded residents of the State to make use of the emergency phone numbers- 08023169485, 08033086660, 08033065303, 08055281442 and 08055329229 provided to contact health authorities in case anyone with observed symptoms of the Ebola disease is noticed.

    1. If the incubation period is 3-21 days, didn't this man just die last week? So his could have potentially infected peeps just about 10days to a week ago, why is the government already giving an all clear? Very careless and irresponsible, I must say. Those people should have been quarantined and monitored just to be on the safe side. A false sense of security could be very catastrophic ....... Just Me

  11. Ebola has an incubation period of 3-21 days, those guys should be quarantined for that period. And shouldn't only focus on airports, they should also check seaports and especially road borders. The annoying thing about our govt is that they like to hide things until it gets out of control. Instead of them to concentrate on d issue, na election full their head. Na God just the protect person for this country. The news these days is just sad sad sad and it gets worse by the day. And d foolish leaders who should avert the situation are not interested in doing so. They just all about money. If everybody dies, who are they going to lead??? May God help and bless us all. Amen!

    1. People like u like to believe the worst out of every situation, they have told us what they want to tell us and I want to believe that, its left for us to still take precautionary actions on our own. They didn't ask u to stop protecting yourself

    2. Eka Joy. Believe all you want but it's still too early. Quarantining those persons would have been the best option for that period of incubation.
      We still hope and pray for the best tho.
