Deadly disease hits Ondo, residents wake up blind, die within a few hours

Residents of Irele township in Ondo state have been hit by a deadly diseases. According to reports, the victims wake up blind, with a terrible headache and die within a few hours. At least 15 people who contracted the disease are feared dead.

Ondo state Commissioner for Health, Dr. Dayo Adeyanju, said the disease was discovered yesterday but didn't say how the victims contracted the disease or how it can be passed on to others. Hopefully, the Minister of Health will tell us what's happening.

    It sounds like some alcohol or other toxicological thing to me. Let them investigate what they took and also take samples for toxicology. Meanwhile the bodies should be handled as highly infectious until we know what we are dealing with. In the meantime lets keep up handwashing and cough ettiquette
