A New Disease Deadlier Than Ebola, HIV, Emerges by Kyliegame: 10:36am On Mar 31, 2016
Hmmmm, this life, just when we have not yet gotten over the shock of the last terrible one, another emerges again. Can God just kill all medical scientists?

There are warnings that a new disease which is potentially deadlier than HIV/AIDS, Ebola Virus Disease (EVD), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and Zika Fever could emerge on the global landscape. The new disease Called WIV1-coronavirus (CoV1), is said to caused by a virus found in Chinese Rufous Horseshoe bats and is apparently capable of direct transmission to humans (which could be sexually) without intermediaries as was previously believed.

It begins with flu-like symptoms which rapidly worsen to pneumonia. Current SARS vaccines are ineffective against it, and its ease of transmission could ensure that hundreds of thousands of people across the world are affected.

This is a warning Nigeria must take with all the seriousness that it deserves. The outbreaks of EVD, SARS, Lassa fever and Avian influenza have clearly shown that the emergence of new diseases and new variations of old ailments is a grim reality that the world can only ignore at its own cost.

Now, the problem here is the ease and rapidity of modern travel automatically means that any outbreak in one part of the world can spread in a matter of days, if not hours.


WIV1-CoV1’s status as a respiratory disease makes Nigeria’s often-crowded, insanitary towns and cities perfect for its transmission if it eventually reaches humans.

Any viable strategy against this so-called “Super-SARS” virus must be comprehensive enough to take prevention, detection, tracking, isolation and cure into consideration. All points of entry must be given adequate equipment to monitor all visitors and indigenes coming into the country. Hospitals and laboratories will require training and tools to detect the virus and develop treatment regimens. Communities across the nation will have to be fully informed about WIV1-CoV1, especially its symptoms and the steps to take if it is suspected; those parts of the country where bats are a delicacy must be warned against further consumption.
