The Spanish priest must've said the same thing. Heck, even Z-mapp couldn't save him.

Better go protect yourself, and stay alive.

Infact eh! This people are terrible! Every man should just protect himself cos the govt is as incompetent as they come! FEW people, they can't CONTROL or HANDLE! Then I wonder, I trully trully wonder what they will do if God forbid, there is an epidemic!


My 10year old cousin knows that every primary contact should immediately be isolated and not allowed to go anywhere for at least 21 days! This is an issue of natural security! Now 21 pple are being watched cos of 1 person! They probably don't understand geometric progression!


This country is unbelievable!

No i'm afraid. All the primary contacts with Patrick sawyer were not isolated. They were simply given thermometers and asked to isolate themselves at home. They were told to contact the hospital once they noticed any changes as that's the best way of tackling the disease, early detection. That's the protocol in Nigeria.
I swear,our leaders no get sense @ all.Can't the govt send security agents to monitor them to ensure they dont run away and spread the disease to oda pple? Knowing that there are pple dat are so wicked like that Liberian bastard and dat nurse who can run away and spread d virus knowing fully well dat they ar infected.To comot from house sef dey scare me.what kind of irresponsible govt is this?

Reference:

This is the kind of rubbish talk that has continued to kill people since March in The Guinea, Liberia and Serria Leone, under-estimating the sheer aggression of this virus. I say and I say again. No one is certain about how and when this disease is spread. Even experienced handlers in full bio gear have died. Wisdom is on the side of extreme caution, viruses do not have timers, they don't have calendars, they respect no one. You can transmit a typical virus minutes after 'catching' it. Until the science is complete I will treat ebola as virile as the influenza virus. It is either we do this or conceed the battle, simple. There is too much laxity everywhere concerning this epidemic. If it was domiciled in the Americas, Europe or Asia the WHO will have raised greater alarm, we should not test the resolve of this virus to do serious damage.

Those doctors are constantly administering highly contagious individuals, so the likelihood of them contracting the virus is heighten.

Ebola has continued to kill people in those respective nations because of ignorance. The average citizen in those countries has very little understanding of how the illness is spread.

Spreading fear and panic will have the opposite effect of what you’re trying to do, because as we all know, when people are highly stressed, their natural inclination is to take flight.

It doesn’t say, so we can assume she’s not sick nor has she tested positive for Ebola. Only 9 of the 50 or so people that came into with Mr Sawyer have tested positive.

Wait a minute! How did the woman find her way back to Enugu from Lagos? I'm sure it was through commercial vehicle. Then how do we know how many people she had contact with in Lagos taxi that took her to the park, in the park while trying to board the vehicle, inside the vehicle during the journey, in Enugu park as she arrived, within the neighbourhood as she arrived home? Have they taken cognizance of all these? This can really be dangerous. May God save us all...amen.

Perhaps I am the wrong profession then. In my profession risk is analysed very carefully and systems are designed to contain or accomodate the maximum possible outcomes or 'worst case scenario'. In virology or public health it appears threats are analysed on the least possible outcomes. Goodluck to you guys.

We don't say 'what may happen' or 'what is likely to happen', we say 'what is the worst thing that can happen' and plan around to handle that.

Nigerians are stubborn people and the WHO policy in managing Ebola used in ugnada, Zaire model cannot work here. Our population is just too much and the migration rate is very high. So the quarantine method of just giving them thermometer to monitor thier temperature at home cannot work here. There was even a guy that slept on the same bed with a primary contact that exhibits the symptoms and was advised to lay low and be under observation. The guy refused saying he has to be at work and that he had just a night contact with the person .They both shared a bed . This are not hear say but hard facts on what is going on I can't divulge more . Practice safe personal hygiene

Pls stop being scared for nothing. She would have been only able to infect others only on the ground that she is sick and dead

So if she is not sick and tested negative as per the time she travelled then no one got infected.

But if she was sick then as at the time of this news it would have been a news of another ebola positive patient.

This ebola u people are sharing.... Chai!!!

You can never know the exact figure of people she's had contact with. The said 21 is just a probability belief. It's over 70% possibility the contacts were more than that. Danger still looms on air.

RoyalRoy: Damn!!!

I actually thought about this some days back.

The hard working and risk taking Igbo business man will surely discard Ebola threats and give his all in order to make his mark in his business venture.


I also Wondered how he will escape the scourge when all he just wanted was to improve his business and make a better life for himself and his family. !!

Now Ebola has gotten a good ground to multiply in Africa's most populous nation due to a foolish nurse who should know better.

May that trial vaccine bring succour to all infected Africans. Amen.

Shalom.

No it is the same that is why contact tracing is done.

Unfortunately, when dealing with humans, it is not so straight forward.

mcino: Shaking my head for some ignorant posts here. There is no Ebola in Enugu. The woman is just on observation facility for having primary contact with the evil sawyer. It is not said anywhere that she has tested positive to it. Besides, it is only when the person has tested positive and is already down with it that he can infect others. Even if TNG woman later tests positive, she might likely not have given it to anybody.
I hope it doesn't spread further in Nigeria. Helps us Jehovah

Selfish people - she had to carry the whole thing out of Lagos all the way to Enugu. Probably potentially infecting countless people along the way.
