At an emergency meeting today August 8th, the Geneva based UN health agency said the
declaration of an international emergency will help in raising the
level of vigilance for transmission of the virus.
WHO advised countries
identified to have been infested by the deadly Ebola virus - Guinea,
Nigeria, Sierra Lieone and Liberia - to declare a state of emergency and
that there should be no general ban on international travel or trade on
these countries. Continue...

Fukuda, the WHO's head of health security in a telephone interview with
reporters stressed that Ebola is not a mysterious disease and that with
the right steps and measures to deal with infected people, Ebola's
spread could be stopped.
"This is not a mysterious disease. This is an infectious disease that can be contained. t is not a virus that is spread through the air." he saidThe WHO says this current outbreak is the most severe in the almost 40 years since Ebola was first identified in humans majorly due to the weaknesses in health facilities of the countries currently affected. It also said inexperience in dealing with Ebola outbreaks and misconceptions of the disease, including how it is transmitted, "continue to be a major challenge in some countries".

It has also emerged that Sawyer looked “terribly ill” and might have known he was infected with the virus before travelling to Nigeria, the Liberian media has reported.
ReplyDeleteAccording to a review of Close Circuit Television (CCTV) images at the James Spriggs Payne’s Airport, Monrovia, by Liberian newspaper, The New Dawn, Sawyer, also a naturalised American, looked terribly ill and deliberately avoided contact with people just before boarding the Asky Airline flight that brought him to Lagos.
Describing his behaviour as “strange”, the The New Dawn said Sawyer bore a “sad countenance” like he was troubled and sat alone avoiding bodily contact with other passengers who came close to him at the boarding gate of the James Sprigg Payne’s Airport as he awaited his flight to Lagos.
“His strange behaviour and frequent movement up and down as he eagerly awaited his Asky flight had prompted the security camera operator to focus on him. In the video, Patrick could be seen avoiding physical contact with airport employees and other passengers during the check-in process,” the newspaper wrote.
Airport video footage, according to the report, also showed Sawyer lying flat on his stomach on the floor in the corridor of the airport and seemed to be in “excruciating pain.”
The footage showed Sawyer preventing people from touching him. According to the The New Dawn reporter who reviewed the video, he even snubbed an immigration officer who initiated a friendly gesture of a handshake moments before he boarded the airplane.
FrontPage Africa, another Liberian newspaper, also reported that Sawyer, who was believed to have been infected by his sister, told its reporter shortly before he travelled to Nigeria that he had gone in search of his sister’s husband who ran away after she tested positive to Ebola.
The paper said Sawyer vomited a few times among his friends in Liberia just before heading to the airport and also on the plane. FrontPage Africa’s publisher, Rodney Sieh, later told online news medium, Premium Times by telephone that his paper’s extensive reporting on the matter showed clearly that Sawyer knew he had contracted the Ebola virus before travelling to Nigeria.
“He definitely knew he was sick and it was curious that he still decided to travel,” Sieh said. “His sister had died from the virus and he most likely had contact with her.”
According to FrontPage Africa, after Sawyer became ill on the airplane, he denied to First Consultants’ personnel that he had contact with anyone infected with Ebola despite repeated inquiries after initial tests for Malaria and HIV were negative.
The newspaper said Sawyer however flew into a rage and behaved in a disruptive manner at First Consultants after he was told he had tested positive for Ebola.
Its nt good to speak ill bout d dead..buh if dis gist is true..hpe he's at peace knwing he's caused d death f a nurse n infectn f medical personnels tkin cre f him
DeleteIf not for that infected Liberian that came and died in our country, Nigeria won't be mentioned and our people will be safe.

ReplyDeleteOluwa gbawa lowo Ebola ooo... the thing is getting more disturbing day after day.
ReplyDeleteNice blog about emergency health. You can also visit on greenhealth.org
ReplyDeleteIt is very strange how the American Patrick Sawyer guy went against all odds to get on the plane to Nigeria even after his sister had just died from Ebola, not to mention he was already sick and showing symptoms.
ReplyDeleteFurthermore, I've read reports from Liberian dailies about how they have watched CCTV footage of the guy been sick and acting strangely at the Monrovian airport right before boarding the plane to Lagos.
There is definitely a conspiracy here to make this disease spread as quickly and widely as possible. What is playing out here has been in planning for several years and the people who planned it are set to make billions from it.
That is a Nice step at the right direction.
