Why are you such a doofus?? You wasted no time in turning this tribal but you forget as long as this is Nigeria, there's freedom of movement and I hope the your state is not affected.

I hope the Nigerian government will be proactive and tackle this without waiting for foreign help.

Everything bad starts from the north. Caused !!

Pple like you reason like Portuguese Pigs. You should be matured enof to know that some sicknesses are endemic and no matter what, you can't find them in some regions jst like going to Europe to look for malaria cure. It's myopic to reason like you. Accept natural disasters the way you see them unless you are Jesus or Prophet Moh'd.

Robbery, human rituals, human trafficking, drug trafficking, kidnapping, prostitution, etc are good, I guess because we all know their origins.

This is not the time to start apportioning blame. We act fast or we die fast. Meningitis doesn't care if you are from the North or South.

The disease spread faster in the north because of its high temperate condition. The north is the meningitis belt. The carrier could as well be from any part of the country.

The killing of Nigerians in India was because a Nigerian purportedly sold drugs to an Indian kid, which led to his death. You and I both know who runs the drugs business. You call the country a regressive zoo, but you're the ones dragging her down and tarnishing her image.

God pls protect us... OP, abeg Wat are the symptoms of meningitis?

Patient Care & Health Information
Diseases & Conditions
Meningitis
Overview
Symptoms and causes
By Mayo Clinic Staff Print
Symptoms

Early meningitis symptoms may mimic the flu (influenza). Symptoms may develop over several hours or over a few days.

Possible signs and symptoms in anyone older than the age of 2 include:

Sudden high fever
Stiff neck
Severe headache that seems different than normal
Headache with nausea or vomiting
Confusion or difficulty concentrating
Seizures
Sleepiness or difficulty waking
Sensitivity to light
No appetite or thirst
Skin rash (sometimes, such as in meningococcal meningitis)
Signs in newborns

Newborns and infants may show these signs:

High fever
Constant crying
Excessive sleepiness or irritability
Inactivity or sluggishness
Poor feeding
A bulge in the soft spot on top of a baby's head (fontanel)
Stiffness in a baby's body and neck
Infants with meningitis may be difficult to comfort, and may even cry harder when held.

When to see a doctor

Seek immediate medical care if you or someone in your family has meningitis symptoms, such as:

Fever
Severe, unrelenting headache
Confusion
Vomiting
Stiff neck
Bacterial meningitis is serious, and can be fatal within days without prompt antibiotic treatment. Delayed treatment increases the risk of permanent brain damage or death.

It's also important to talk to your doctor if a family member or someone you work with has meningitis. You may need to take medications to prevent getting the infection.

Causes

Illustration showing meningitis
Meningitis
Viral infections are the most common cause of meningitis, followed by bacterial infections and, rarely, fungal infections. Because bacterial infections can be life-threatening, identifying the cause is essential.

Bacterial meningitis

Bacteria that enter the bloodstream and travel to the brain and spinal cord cause acute bacterial meningitis. But it can also occur when bacteria directly invade the meninges. This may be caused by an ear or sinus infection, a skull fracture, or, rarely, after some surgeries.

Several strains of bacteria can cause acute bacterial meningitis, most commonly:

Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus). This bacterium is the most common cause of bacterial meningitis in infants, young children and adults in the United States. It more commonly causes pneumonia or ear or sinus infections. A vaccine can help prevent this infection.
Neisseria meningitidis (meningococcus). This bacterium is another leading cause of bacterial meningitis. These bacteria commonly cause an upper respiratory infection but can cause meningococcal meningitis when they enter the bloodstream. This is a highly contagious infection that affects mainly teenagers and young adults. It may cause local epidemics in college dormitories, boarding schools and military bases. A vaccine can help prevent infection.
Haemophilus influenzae (haemophilus). Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) bacterium was once the leading cause of bacterial meningitis in children. But new Hib vaccines have greatly reduced the number of cases of this type of meningitis.
Listeria monocytogenes (listeria). These bacteria can be found in unpasteurized cheeses, hot dogs and luncheon meats. Pregnant women, newborns, older adults and people with weakened immune systems are most susceptible. Listeria can cross the placental barrier, and infections in late pregnancy may be fatal to the baby.
Viral meningitis

Viral meningitis is usually mild and often clears on its own. Most cases in the United States are caused by a group of viruses known as enteroviruses, which are most common in late summer and early fall. Viruses such as herpes simplex virus, HIV, mumps, West Nile virus and others also can cause viral meningitis.

Chronic meningitis

Slow-growing organisms (such as fungi and Mycobacterium tuberculosis) that invade the membranes and fluid surrounding your brain cause chronic meningitis. Chronic meningitis develops over two weeks or more. The symptoms of chronic meningitis — headaches, fever, vomiting and mental cloudiness — are similar to those of acute meningitis.

Fungal meningitis

Fungal meningitis is relatively uncommon and causes chronic meningitis. It may mimic acute bacterial meningitis. Fungal meningitis isn't contagious from person to person. Cryptococcal meningitis is a common fungal form of the disease that affects people with immune deficiencies, such as AIDS. It's life-threatening if not treated with an antifungal medication.

Other meningitis causes

Meningitis can also result from noninfectious causes, such as chemical reactions, drug allergies, some types of cancer and inflammatory diseases such as sarcoidosis.

Risk factors

Risk factors for meningitis include:

Skipping vaccinations. Risk rises for anyone who hasn't completed the recommended childhood or adult vaccination schedule.
Age. Most cases of viral meningitis occur in children younger than age 5. Bacterial meningitis is common in those under age 20.
Living in a community setting. College students living in dormitories, personnel on military bases, and children in boarding schools and child care facilities are at greater risk of meningococcal meningitis. This is probably because the bacterium is spread by the respiratory route, and spreads quickly through large groups.
Pregnancy. Pregnancy increases the risk of listeriosis — an infection caused by listeria bacteria, which also may cause meningitis. Listeriosis increases the risk of miscarriage, stillbirth and premature delivery.
Compromised immune system. AIDS, alcoholism, diabetes, use of immunosuppressant drugs and other factors that affect your immune system also make you more susceptible to meningitis. Having your spleen removed also increases your risk, and patients without a spleen should get vaccinated to minimize that risk.
Complications

Meningitis complications can be severe. The longer you or your child has the disease without treatment, the greater the risk of seizures and permanent neurological damage, including:

Hearing loss
Memory difficulty
Learning disabilities
Brain damage
Gait problems
Seizures
Kidney failure
Shock
Death
With prompt treatment, even patients with severe meningitis can have good recovery.

Lassa Fever, North. Polio, North. Meningitis, North. Vesicovaginal Fistulae, North.

All the baddest diseases, North. Yet an amazing and substantial chunk of Nigeria's resources head that way.

What a region.

there are many flat heads in the north

Menzy86:
God some people's stupidity is out of this world. So a disease primarily caused by hot weather (naturally attributed to d north) is now a function of "backwardness" and dragging Nigeria back? This country is a hopeless case!

They have totally forgotten out of their stupidity, bigotry and hopelessness that geographical location of the north is what made it at the receiving end of this disease.

They are all ignorant bigots, the reason why I dislike joining issue with them.

Sometimes the daftness of Nigerian youths give me the chills. Its all over. We turn the most simple things into tribal, religious and regional online wars. Sometimes I just wish I had d power to FLUSH ALL our brains. Education has no effect on rationality ESPECIALLY among the rudderless youths. Little wonder why grand pa's still call d shots? Our redemption is far off!

if na this buhari Government ebola happen ehh, in fact every Nigerian go die.
