Universities in the United Kingdom are set to screen Nigerian students admitted into their campuses for the Ebola Virus Disease.

According to The Independent on Sunday, the alert by Universities UK, the umbrella body that represents vice-chancellors, was issued because the universities are expecting new students to arrive from West Africa.
While the three countries which have seen the largest number of Ebola cases: Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone have hardly any students enrolling at UK universities, Nigeria which has also had confirmed cases is the fourth largest supplier of international students to UK universities.

A spokesman for the UK body said, “The issue is very much on universities’ radars. We circulated to universities the publicly available guidance on the topic.”

The guidance makes it clear that any student suspected of having Ebola should immediately be isolated in a side room away from any member of staff or student contact.
