Mickey7: wetin dey do diz one wey dey take panadol for my headache why e dey pain you btw I've got 41 likes and still counting.need a noose?

Congrats!!!.

Vivipop: As sad as it may sound, you are right. If one infected person rendered 27 persons suspects,you can imagine how many people they might have come in contact with. It seems like this Ebola Pandemic is getting worse by the hour,I'v never been more afraid in my life. It's better we know we are dealing with one state than the whole of Nigeria.

Sad but it's the best solution we've got right now. But don't worry, it won't get to you.

Wether you like am or you no like am
America has a hand in this.
All ebola victims from usa get cured of the disease from private*********
Why are africans dieing and americans have the cure for this?
Is this some trick targeted to nigerians ?

EBOLA.HMMM.HIV NATURES NATURAL WAY OF TAKING CARE OF POPULATION EXPLOSION.In the earth we have south pole.North pole.West pole.East pole.They all repel each other with diffrent characteristics.We have good-bad,Life-death.Every thing in life has an opposite.I SAID EVERYTHING IN LIFE HAS OPPOSITE.No matter how hard we pray what will be will be.Malaria came in the 50s killed like ebola but today it can be controlled.it kills those it can kill.Primarily Ebola is a welcome development in Africa.let CREMATION be applied to all dead bodies.embalming and motuaries help in the spread of all this rubbish diseases in AFRI A.whats the essence of washing a dead body that is ash.will it wash the sins away.HIV-AIDS brought awareness on use of protective coats and oda sex awareness..Ebola will bring a great civilization in the way Afri a bury the dead.lying in state shld be scarapped.
THANKS AFRICA BRODAS

Mickey7: While others get a hundred plus likes for their comments,No one ever likes my comment please advise me

look unto jesus, he is the autor and finisher of our faith..... Likes cant save u, but jesus can..... Just give him a trial.. REPENT, RECEIVE JESUS AND BE SAVED!!♥

did the liberian really urinate on the doctors or are u just joking?

Leopantro: The bottom line is that we cannot provide the
requisite expertise needed to manage these
confirmed and probable cases.

But I thought you said doctors have volunteered to help out.

Ebola horror: When Nigeria's first case was told he had Ebola, he pulled down pants and URINATED on the doctors - FPAfrica

BTW, I know where two are.

realone2012: 'Every Pharaoh has a Moses'.
Oh Ebola! Your 'Moses' will be discovered sooner rather than later.. In sha Allah

Rubbisshhh! This is the problem with Nigerians. Suffering and smil DNAs is ingrained in us.

Kachisbarbie:
Lol, wetin this 1 dey talk?
You better go buy rain coat and differennt matching colors of sweater, hold that 1 for hand first.
Then you buy hand sanitizer too....

Don't worry babe, it's well with us. Just endeavor to take precautionary motives.

Nne I tire for this yeye virus .....Na to buy rain coat sef + hand gloves,socks, eyeglasses, cap, body must be covered

mrking3: Thankfully, the body of patrick was burnt to ashes! So no need to wish him to Hell anymore!! This man is just an Agent of the devil released to destroy the world!

If you had said Nigeria, you would have made sense. Because someone also infected him.

teeowl: did the liberian really urinate on the doctors or are u just joking?

Personally, I think it is a lie.

Na wa oh!
i hope the other states in Naija no dey Sidon dey look sha.

[/color][color=]Ebola,ebola end time things

Vivipop: As sad as it may sound, you are right. If one infected person rendered 27 persons suspects,you can imagine how many people they might have come in contact with. It seems like this Ebola Pandemic is getting worse by the hour

On the contrary, it is only if every infected person behaves f00lishly like the 1diot that decided to bring the disease to Nigeria, that we should be worried; who knowing his symptoms are Ebola related and knowing he had been exposed to Ebola should have submitted himself for examination in his home country. But yes, the Federal Government should be blamed for allowing flights from Liberia in the first place.

Why 2PM Is The Perfect Time To Take A Walk

1. What is Ebola virus disease?
Ebola virus disease (formerly known as Ebola
haemorrhagic fever) is a severe, often fatal illness, with a
death rate of up to 90%. The illness affects humans and
nonhuman primates (monkeys, gorillas, and chimpanzees).
Ebola first appeared in 1976 in two simultaneous
outbreaks, one in a village near the Ebola River in the
Democratic Republic of Congo, and the other in a remote
area of Sudan.
The origin of the virus is unknown but fruit bats
(Pteropodidae) are considered the likely host of the Ebola
virus, based on available evidence.
2. How do people become infected with the virus?
Ebola is introduced into the human population through
close contact with the blood, secretions, organs or other
bodily fluids of infected animals. In Africa, infection has
occurred through the handling of infected chimpanzees,
gorillas, fruit bats, monkeys, forest antelope and
porcupines found ill or dead or in the rainforest. It is
important to reduce contact with high-risk animals (i.e.
fruit bats, monkeys or apes) including not picking up dead
animals found lying in the forest or handling their raw
meat.
Once a person comes into contact with an animal that has
Ebola, it can spread within the community from human to
human. Infection occurs from direct contact (through
broken skin or mucous membranes) with the blood, or
other bodily fluids or secretions (stool, urine, saliva,
semen) of infected people. Infection can also occur if
broken skin or mucous membranes of a healthy person
come into contact with environments that have become
contaminated with an Ebola patient’s infectious fluids such
as soiled clothing, bed linen, or used needles.
Health workers have frequently been exposed to the virus
when caring for Ebola patients. This happens because they
are not wearing personal protection equipment, such as
gloves, when caring for the patients. Health care providers
at all levels of the health system – hospitals, clinics and
health posts – should be briefed on the nature of the
disease and how it is transmitted, and strictly follow
recommended infection control precautions.
Burial ceremonies in which mourners have direct contact
with the body of the deceased person can also play a role
in the transmission of Ebola. Persons who have died of
Ebola must be handled using strong protective clothing
and gloves, and be buried immediately.
People are infectious as long as their blood and secretions
contain the virus. For this reason, infected patients receive
close monitoring from medical professionals and receive
laboratory tests to ensure the virus is no longer circulating
in their systems before they return home. When the
medical professionals determine it is okay for the patient
to return home, they are no longer infectious and cannot
infect anyone else in their communities. Men who have
recovered from the illness can still spread the virus to their
partner through their semen for up to 7 weeks after
recovery. For this reason, it is important for men to avoid
sexual intercourse for at least 7 weeks after recovery or to
wear condoms if having sexual intercourse during 7 weeks
after recovery.
3. Who is most at risk?
During an outbreak, those at higher risk of infection are:
health workers;
family members or others in close contact with infected
people;
mourners who have direct contact with the bodies of
the deceased as part of burial ceremonies; and
hunters in the rain forest who come into contact with
dead animals found lying in the forest.
More research is needed to understand if some groups,
such as immuno-compromised people or those with other
underlying health conditions, are more susceptible than
others to contracting the virus.
Exposure to the virus can be controlled through the use of
protective measures in clinics and hospitals, at community
gatherings, or at home.
4. What are typical signs and symptoms of infection?
Sudden onset of fever, intense weakness, muscle pain,
headache and sore throat are typical signs and symptoms.
This is followed by vomiting, diarrhoea, rash, impaired
kidney and liver function, and in some cases, both internal
and external bleeding.
Laboratory findings include low white blood cell and
platelet counts, and elevated liver enzymes.
The incubation period, or the time interval from infection
to onset of symptoms, is from 2 to 21 days. The patients
become contagious once they begin to show symptoms.
They are not contagious during the incubation period.
Ebola virus disease infections can only be confirmed
through laboratory testing.
5. When should someone seek medical care?
If a person has been in an area known to have Ebola virus
disease or in contact with a person known or suspected to
have Ebola and they begin to have symptoms, they should
seek medical care immediately.
Any cases of persons who are suspected to have the
disease should be reported to the nearest health unit
without delay. Prompt medical care is essential to
improving the rate of survival from the disease. It is also
important to control spread of the disease and infection
control procedures need to be started immediately.
6. What is the treatment?
Severely ill patients require intensive supportive care. They
are frequently dehydrated and need intravenous fluids or
oral rehydration with solutions that contain electrolytes.
There is currently no specific treatment to cure the
disease.
Some patients will recover with the appropriate medical
care.
To help control further spread of the virus, people that are
suspected or confirmed to have the disease should be
isolated from other patients and treated by health workers
using strict infection control precautions.
7. What can I do? Can Ebola be prevented?
Currently there is no licensed vaccine for Ebola virus
disease. Several vaccines are being tested, but none are
available for clinical use right now.
Raising awareness of the risk factors and measures people
can take to protect themselves are the only ways to
reduce illness and deaths.
Ways to prevent infection and transmission
While initial cases of Ebola virus disease are contracted by
handling infected animals or carcasses, secondary cases
occur by direct contact with the bodily fluids of an ill
person, either through unsafe case management or unsafe
burial practices. During this outbreak, most of the
disease has spread through human-to-human
transmission . Several steps can be taken to help in
preventing infection and limiting or stopping transmission.
Understand the nature of the disease, how it is
transmitted, and how to prevent it from spreading
further. (For additional information, please see the
previous questions about Ebola virus disease in this
FAQ.)
Listen to and follow directives issued by your country’s
respective Ministry of Health.
If you suspect someone close to you or in your
community of having Ebola virus disease, encourage
and support them in seeking appropriate medical
treatment in a care facility.
If you choose to care for an ill person in your home,
notify public health officials of your intentions so they
can train you and provide appropriate gloves and
personal protective equipment (PPE), as well as
instructions as a reminder on how to properly care for
the patient, protect yourself and your family, and
properly dispose of the PPE after use.
When visiting patients in the hospital or caring for
someone at home, hand washing with soap and water
is recommended after touching a patient, being in
contact with their bodily fluids, or touching his/her
surroundings.
People who have died from Ebola should only be
handled using appropriate protective equipment and
should be buried immediately.
Additionally, individuals should reduce contact with high-
risk infected animals (i.e. fruit bats, monkeys or apes) in
the affected rainforest areas. If you suspect an animal is
infected, do not handle it. Animal products (blood and
meat) should be thoroughly cooked before eating.
8. What about health workers? How do they protect
themselves from the high risk of caring for sick patients?
Health workers treating patients with suspected or
confirmed illness are at higher risk of infection than other
groups.
In addition to standard health

5. When should someone seek medical care?
If a person has been in an area known to have Ebola virus
disease or in contact with a person known or suspected to
have Ebola and they begin to have symptoms, they should
seek medical care immediately.

The rule violated by Mr Sawyer.

Am even afraid to enter commercial bus because the well people use to sweat with the issue of 5 passenger on a seat.

Naija...no investment in healthcare or making it conducive for Nigerian doctors in diaspora to provide care to Nigerians. So many Nigerian doctors in Europe and America...

Oya...politicians save the country. First BH now ebola virus...

And what happens if the said 27 persons have already made contact with other persons.....the effect of this deadly virus is cataclysmic#it should have been contained from the very first day the case of the liberian guy came up

In the immortal words of our Minister of Information 4 months ago when there were rumours about an Ebola outbreak in Nigeria.
“Nigeria is ready, because the Ministry has taken every precaution, including getting the vaccines and medicines in case there was any incident in Nigeria"- Labaran Maku
In any respectable and responsible country this man would have resigned in shame immediately it was announced they a Nigerian had died of the disease 4 months later.

GentleMimi: Nigeria! Always reactive,never proactive.
I cannot believe we are still considering locations for Ebola victims. They are still contemplating places to evacuate,so as to make room for the victims.
Last two months when i read abt an awareness campaign,i assumed certain things were put in place for preparedness,but i guessed wrong.
This unpreparedness is causing chaos. Chaos breeds confusion. In the midst of confusion,objective thinking is virtually impossible.
Now we are running about,looking for secondary contacts. Soon it will be tertiary contacts.

Bro, you are right o... And that's what we do. ..It's an Atitude... Fire Brigades.... Never do wells except to steal in the offices...

Govt get mouth sha. They can't locate where they are hiding over 200 Chibok girls in a scantily populated forest. Here they areman-hunting for 27 persons among over 170 million people. This one even pass Jack Bauer.

Nigeria govts always ill-prepared for whatever emergencies. Erecting isolation tents when hospitals around the world have well designed isolation room/wards in their hospitals.

They no longer shake hands but they forgot that they'll give some airport personnel their passport and collect it back Nigeria nka self.

***sits back and apply handrob up to the elbows while shaking my head***

Orikinla: [size=14pt]What if they have gone clubbing or swimming?
What will happen to those who rubbed bodies with them at the night clubs or shared swimming pools with them?[/size]

That's really scary!!

teeowl: did the liberian really urinate on the doctors or are u just joking?

It was reported in the Punch Newspaper that he did.

Malakh: u for sit for Kilimanjaro lol

How do one handle a brother who suddenly gets fever? Do we run away from the house even if we are not sure the root of the fever or buy him drugs? How do we take m to the hospital.

Rather providing isolation centre in yaba y did they just choose one far place away from the heart of the city and move every needed equipment there?

All these private hospital, I just hope they have what's needed in checking of incoming I'll people because I personally think they should get the needed equipment and ebola test should be done right from the entrance cos someone with the virus might just come for something he thinks is minor and in the process shares it and somebody who is just I'll of running nose and small cold we be put in the same room as the other..

BlackHuman: It's times like these I remember how useless this country is; nothing works in this country, nothing!.....

it is high time you all start saying good n wonderful things about your country...as much as you guys live on its soil,breathe its fresh air and live on it.I mean,when it is time to come out to do the right thing,you won't come out,that is when you all will remember that you have a mother and siblings to take care of.remember,Do not throw stones in a market place,for it can touch one of your own.

The lagos state Government should consider legislation reducing crowding in public buses as a preventive measure.
