Another Texas health care worker tests positive to Ebola

Oh no! Sad for this hospital. A second health care worker at the Texas Presbyterian Hospital has tested positive to Ebola, a few days after a nurse, Nina Pham, tested positive. The new case is also one of those who attended to late Thomas Eric Duncan, the Liberian who took Ebola to America.

Confirming the 2nd diagnoses, the US Center for Disease Control and prevention said in a statement 
"A second healthcare worker at Texas Presbyterian Hospital who provided care for the index patient has tested positive for Ebola according to preliminary test performed overnight by the Texas Department of State Health Services Laboratory".

      That is an insensate thing to say Bonario. Rememer naija had up to 20 cases includind secondary contacts oo before it was contained somewhat. America just has 2 cases which are still the first contact case so before you go off surmising out of naıveté why not wait to see how effectively America is handling the situation. It might eventually be that this same America will be the ones to proffer the best solution to this scourge

    O dear! This doesn't sound good. I hope America is able to contain it soon. I can see Liberians are on a mission to make sure this ebola spread round the world and they will never succeed in Jesus name.

      Shut up! You don't have to expose display your thoughtlessness here. You think America is a type of country that tells the whole world ther mission even if they were helping you? They know better. Even so, is it their obligation or primary civic duty? Please shut up already and get your as off you chair and do something yourself after all wasn't it our problem what did YOU do? Moron
