In the north they are afraid of boko haram, in the south we are afraid of ebola. Its like we are doomed in this country. Its time all those religious fanatics show their worth and make their prayers work by any means necessary. Where are all the men of God? Imans? Babalows? Nigeria is filled with the highest number of religious fanatics yet we suffer from avoidable diseases and conflicts. WHERE IS YOUR GOD?v?

The american doctor was given a serum back in the USA while the Nigerian doctor in Nigeria was given no treatment at all since there is no cure for the disease here in Nigeria or in other parts of Africa for that matter. Remember, the white man manufactured this virus in their labs or so it seems so they also have the antidote to cure or halt the disease but trust that they won't share so that Africa's black population will decrease dramatically. My opinion.




NB: Azz kissing, inferiority complex stricken, american/european wannabe Nairalanders should not bother quoting me because I am allergic to your self-hating azzes and you are on my ignore list and will get no response from me. Believe that!

It is people like you that make the disease spread so fast. Why the skepticism? If you have no empirical evidence to disprove it, then just believe it.
His concerns are valid. Personally, I believe that implementing mercy killing on the victims of Ebola virus in Nigeria will go a long way in ensuring the greater safety of the populace since we are medically handicapped in that regard.

The "treatment" they are giving them is "good food".

At least 20% of Ebola infected survived the disease....it is all in the way your immune system responds.

ratiken: Take it or leave it, Ebola is here with us.

Yet there might be many unidentified cases out there. We are now at the mercy of the West. Imagine the economic impact if this continues unabated in the next 2 to 3 weeks.
Offices will get shut
Bankers will stay off work
Kids will no longer go to school
Our markets will be empty
Flights will be bared

This plague can actually grind us to a halt so quickly. We need help and we need it quickly.

The creator created humans to help themselves if people can't help themselves then they can only seek a trade-by-barter help.

Unfortunately,many Nigerians are semi illiterate and unpatriotic fools,the president and minister of health can go to hell, they are idiots. I live in Mali and something like this has not happen because their government are mean,they will never allow it to enter here even as they share border with one of the affected country,the problem with Nigerian leaders are their incompetence and half baked education.

Since this virus started,no one has taking it so serious,now that it is in,they want to act God.Hell No.

Even the doctors who attended the Liberian man are all fools,one does not need to tell you as long as he is from Liberia and show sign of sickness, you don't need to touch him right from the airport,our government should have taking the measures that they took now right from day one. Now they want to create a bad image for our dear land. My advice to you all honest and well meaning Nigerians is to vote out the clown called Jonathan from office. If he visit Mali, you all will hear the news because we are ready to disgrace him here. Idiotic president with idiotic ministers. Proudly Nigerian from Abia State.

Disease resurfacing probably cos some idiot decided to eat bush meat ehn!!!! So its best to believe the Doctors husband, children, driver, patients treated might have contracted this disease.

Ebola got into Nigeria through a man... Nigerians have been eating bush meat and nothing happened.

Bats are also carriers of ebola.

numericalguy:

So sad.

Not necessarily.....they may have an immune system that responds to ebola in such a way as to enable surivival.

As stated in the Scientific paper quoted below...(Source here)

[size=23pt]Survivors exhibited more significant IgM responses, clearance of viral antigen, and sustained T-cell cytokine responses, as indicated by high levels of T-cell-related mRNA in the peripheral blood. In contrast, antibodies specific for the virus were nearly undetectable in fatal cases, and while gamma interferon (IFN-γ) was detected early after infection, T-cell cytokine RNA levels were more indicative of a failure to develop adaptive immunity in the days preceding death.
[/size]
During infection, there is evidence that both host and viral proteins contribute to the pathogenesis of Ebola virus. [size=23pt]Increases in the levels of inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ, IFN-α, interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor alpha were associated with fatality from Ebola hemorrhagic fever (40). [/size]Moreover, in vitro experiments demonstrated that tumor necrosis factor released from filovirus-infected monocytes and macrophages increased the permeability of cultured human endothelial cell monolayers (12). However, other reports have observed an association between elevated levels of IFN-γ mRNA and protection from infection (2), and a protective effect of IFN-α and -γ is suggested by the fact that the virus has evolved at least one protein, VP35, that acts as an IFN-α/β antagonist (5). Whether the effects of cytokines are protective or damaging may depend not only on the cytokine profile but also may represent a delicate balance influenced by the route and titer of incoming virus as well as factors specific to the individual host immune response.
