Ebola: Nigerian Health Authorities Confirm Six Infected In Enugu by diamond02: 4:40pm On Aug 15, 2014
Nigeria's health minister has confirmed that only six out of the 21 contacts earlier reported to have come in contact with a nurse in Enugu state on Wednesday have actually been infected with the Ebola virus.

He added that the nurse is one of the primary contacts of the late patrick sawyer who was being treated in a lagos hospital before she went home to Enugu state.

The minister says all six contacts are currently under surveillance and the government is doing all it takes to see that the spread of the virus is contained.

Re-read us story... Six out of 21 actually had a direct or/and indirect contact with d Nurse who is a primary contact to d mad man sawyer. Thereby, making them primary contacts too.
That does not mean they ve been tested positive or they would be tested positive.
Remember some of the primary contacts with Sawyer even came out negative. So, dnt let us rule them out for nw.
