Nigerian Tested For Ebola In Hong Kong by dridowu: 7:36pm On Aug 10, 2014 |
Hong Kong - A Nigerian man is being tested for the deadly Ebola virus in Hong Kong, amid global fears over the potential spread of a disease which has claimed nearly 1 000 lives in west Africa this year. A city government spokesperson confirmed that the 31-year-old man is currently quarantined at a hospital and is being tested to determine whether he had been infected. "So far as we know this is a suspected Ebola case. There will be results of the preliminary testing tonight," the government spokesperson told AFP, adding the man is being treated at the city's Princess Margaret Hospital. A densely populated city of some seven million people, Hong Kong is particularly alert to the spread of viruses after Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome killed almost 300 people eleven years ago. On 30 July the Hong Kong government said it would quarantine as a precaution all people from Ebola infected areas who showed any symptom of the disease such as fever, vomiting or diarrhoea http://m.news24.com/nigeria/National/News/Nigerian-tested-for-Ebola-in-Hong-Kong-20140810 |
