Symphony007: Every member of the nigerian federal government deserve a very good slap from every nigerian. How did a PRIMARY ebola contact make her way to enugu? Not SECONDARY o!!! PRIMARY!!! So all these people they claim are quarantined or "under observation" are free to go about their buisness?? Oh...what a shame. And they think this 21 people they have identified are the only contacts? What of the passangers of the bus she took to enugu? I always knew the nigerian govt but too incompetent to handle this scourge. Every man on your own now o!!!
The protocol in Nigeria is to give them thermometers to monitor their body temperatures themselves, and tell them to isolate themselves at home and not to travel or go to work. Nobody suspected of having the disease is actually quarantined. It is only when you report back to them with a fever or other symptoms of ebola that you are isolated and retested for ebola.

How are people who have been quarantined escaping? Why are they not under serious security? I don't understand why the isolation centers are so porous. A very wicked lady. Does she intend to wipeout her own family considering she is a health official and knows how easy it is to transmit this disease?

mcino: Shaking my head for some ignorant posts here. There is no Ebola in Enugu. The woman is just on observation facility for having primary contact with the evil sawyer. It is not said anywhere that she has tested positive to it. Besides, it is only when the person has tested positive and is already down with it that he can infect others. Even if TNG woman later tests positive, she might likely not have given it to anybody.
so how did the nurse that had primary contact with sawyer gave it to that pregnant woman? remember the difference in time between both contacts is less than 3 days.

wazoboy: How did she get to Enugu?, by air, by commercial or private vehicle? how are we now sure the ebola is only in Enugu? Lagos to Enugu no be small distance o, and u kno Nigerians and their caring attitudes, when they see the nurse shaking in the bus they surely will care for her and hence get their own portion of ebola!

As far as we know, you can only get Ebola from a victim that has started showing symptoms, hence, the quarantine procedures being enacted by the govt. The people the Nurse travelled in a bus with probably have nothing to fear. If the nurse was already sick, they would have mentioned it. She had contact with Sawyer does not mean she actually has Ebola. Even if she has it, she can't transmit it until she starts showing symptoms (incubation period)

so how did a pregnant woman who had contact with one of the nurse just a day or two after Sawyer got the disease ?

How did she escaped from the quarantine facility? Did she test positive or not? How did she get to Enugu? By public car or private? If by public, did she used taxi or molue or private car from her house to the motor park in Lagos? Did she trek or boarded a taxi to her house when she arrived Enugu? Maku pls tell us the truth, there is God ooo.. Primary & secondary contacts are more than 20. Well, I pray she is ebola free if not...

A face mask is not enough. The virus is so small it can penetrate the skin. so your best option is to cover your body completely with the appropriate gear.

U miss an essential point,and dat is,how can a woman who was under QUARANTINE,escape all d way to lagos.Her reaching enugu alone,from lagos is scary enuf.But it also implies d possibility dat d govt maynot av bn tellin us all d whole truth as per having either traced all contacts or quarantined all traced.That my friend is a scary thought

she probably used the same equipment she used in treating Patrick sawyer to treat the pregnant woman. The nurse wasn't showing any symptoms so she couldn't have given the pregnant lady directly

No i'm afraid. All the primary contacts with Patrick sawyer were not isolated. They were simply given thermometers and asked to isolate themselves at home. They were told to contact the hospital once they noticed any changes as that's the best way of tackling the disease, early detection. That's the protocol in Nigeria.

lol .....sincerely praying that Shekau has met a terrible fate when he goes to Sierra Leone to procure weapons. Hopefully he didn't make it back.

Serioisly speaking, They've been quite these days.... Lol... Sure they must be thinking this is w new weapon the Nigerian Soldiers just procured to fight them... Lol.

If the govt are serious, they can start negotiation with shekau using one with ebola as the negotiator. One handshake and 21 days later, problem solved.. But wait, they won't.

eaglechild: By now ALL primary contacts should have had a screening and confirmatory test for the Ebola virus.


So I want to ask, did she test positive?

We need to know the answer to that question because apparently she is not symptomatic.

If that question cannot be answered then that is gross incompetence.

She is symptomatic,this happened in Enugu . there is a lot about this woman that is not in public For people to know.The Ebola team in Lagos sent doctors to Enugu because of her about 10 days ago. She was warned not to travel but she did and to attend a wedding of all reason in the world. There is no difference between her and sawyer, Plain wickedness !!!

There are too many misinformation going around. I don't think the nurse will transmit the disease because you have to show the symptoms to be able to transfer the disease. If she is now showing the signs then her contact with the people doesn't matter
