BREAKING: 2 Nigerians Tested Positive For Ebola by AINATOLULOPE: 9:56am On Nov 06, 2014
Two Nigerians contracted Ebola virus in
Freetown, Sierra Leone,, said the minister of
state for health, Dr Khaliru Alhassan.





According Leadership, the contaminated
Nigerians are aged 27 and 22 and they are
indigenes of Abia and Edo states, respectively.
The minister made this known while briefing
journalists in Uyo, Akwa Ibom, adding that
more details will become available in the
nearest future.

Alhassan also disclosed that the two patients
had been placed into the isolation centres.
According to him, one person has been
successfully cured and has returned to Nigeria.

The minister advocated for strengthening of
vigilance and surveillance measures at the
nation borders.

The official provided that the government had
trained more than 600 health workers as
volunteers ready to fight Ebola outbreak in the
West African countries mostly affected by the
tropical virus.

The EVD continues ravaging West Africa, with
the death toll having reached around 5,000.
Nigeria was officially declared free of Ebola by
the World Health Organization (WHO) on
October 20. Epidemic handling in the country was
characterized as a “spectacular success
story”.

Meanwhile the situation in Sierra Leone ,
Guinea and Liberia already poses danger of
humanitarian catastrophe despite countries
and individuals donating money to help the
affected regions battle the epidemic.

It was reported yesterday that thousands of
hungry citizens of Sierra Leone had to violate
quarantine to search for food, as some areas
could not be reached by aid agencies.
