NURSE WHO TOOK EBOLA TO ENUGU
(The Health Ministry Is 100% Responsible)
--Attorney Patryk Utulu

Explanation & Excuse are identical twins. Often they seem and sound alike but important differences exist. Really, there is no excuse for anyone endangering the lives of other people. The Nigerian nurse who took Ebola to Enugu is being described as satanic diabolical and stupid. What she did was inexcusable and stupid. But she was NOT satanic. It's not a popular opinion at this time but truth is not a popularity contest. The nurse WAS a good Nigerian, a healthcare worker: the type of person who puts her own life on the line daily to help other people recover from malaria, typhoid, etc.

Again, I reemphasize that there's NO excuse for endangering the lives of others.

Liberian-American Patrick Sawyer brought Ebola to Nigeria. That nurse saw a sick person and she helped, as trained to do. She probably never heard of Ebola. Ebola was far beyond what she trained for. Ebola is beyond what 99.99% percent of all Nigerian DOCTORS trained for. She got infected. She panicked. SHE DID WHAT ALL ANIMALS NATURALLY DO WHEN THE END IS NEAR: she ran home to die.

When a rat is poisoned: it runs to its hole to die. When an eagle's eyes fail: it flies to the tallest spot, REBUILDS its nest and dies. When a whale no longer can hunt: it lets itself sink to the bottom of the ocean. Scorpions have no home so when a scorpion is stressed beyond endurance it commits suicide by stinging itself on the spot. When humans face life-threatening illness (especially if it is sudden illness): they run home to die. All animals share this characteristic.

Another universal characteristic is that ANIMALS DON'T LIKE TO BE CAGED and humans are the most stubborn animals. So they must be QUARANTINED, a word that originally meant "Detained for 40 Days."

Why? Because even ancient civilizations UNDERSTOOD that animals (especially humans) cannot be relied on to cage themselves. Hence Government/Authorities (Public Health Ministry) must "DETAIN" (quarantine) sick persons...TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC...and let them go if after 40 days of observation no illness is ascertainable.

If primitive Health Ministries 600 years ago (long before the discovery of bacteria and virus) understood that people suspected of infectious and/or contagious disease must be DETAINED for 40 days in the public interest what is the EXCUSE for Nigerian Health Ministries (in 2014) NOT actively quarantining a nurse who was a primary care giver to an Ebola victim?

The nurse's irrationality was tragic but explicable. The Health Ministry's criminal negligence is totally inexcusable.
