Ebola: Nurse, husband who escaped quarantine relocated to Lagos in special ambulance- Minister

Nigerian Minister for Health, Professor Onyebuchi Chukwu has confirmed that the Lagos nurse who travelled to Enugu against medical advice is now back in Lagos and is under quarantine with her husband.
The suspect, identified as a nurse, said to have travelled to her home town to visit her family, is now under surveillance with 20 others she came into contact with in the city.
With the development, the total number of Nigerians under monitoring for the dreaded virus is now 198.
Revealing these facts yesterday after the Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja, Information Minister, Labaran Maku, explained that Nigeria currently has 10 confirmed cases of Ebola, all stemming from the visit of the late Sawyer.
Maku explained that of the 198 persons under surveillance, 177 of them are in Lagos while 21 are in Enugu.
He said: “All those who had primary contact have been quarantined. Secondary contacts have also been traced. So far, the number of people that have been traced is 198.
“Of this number, 177 are in Lagos and are being traced. Some are in quarantine, some are being monitored by health specialists.”
Meanwhile, the death toll world wide from the outbreak stands at 1,069 and total number of infections 1,975, according to the World Health Organisation.

I pray for quick recovery and that the spread of this disease is contained.

lol! Lagos should change its slogan to "The Ebola Base of the Nation.''

Why was she brought back to Lagos? Aren't there any facilities in the east to quarantine her? Will the people she had contacts with also be shipped to Lagos?
Na wah o.

Because she was infected in Lagos.

So has she been confirmed to have Ebola?

If so why is she not sick yet? Is it not supposed to kill in 2 weeks


Propaganda

shine your eyes

omongbatim:
Because she was infected in Lagos.

Most likely there are no facilities to monitor/ treat her in Enugu.
I wonder if other cities in Nigeria are prepared.

There also was no facility in Lagos until Ebola came.

But why must she "escape" in the first place?Was she being maltreated in quarantine? Doesn't she know the implication of her travelling or she just want a lot more Nigerians to get infected? I wish her and hubby speedy recovery

Y did they allow dem escape?
Does it mean dat those re being quarantined re nt being guarded?

If the tries that shiit again she should be shot!
