Dear Colleagues,
There seems to be an outbreak of lassa fever in Abakaliki,Ebonyi State as we lost 2 Resident Doctors today,Dr Felix Ali,Dept of Community Medicine & Dr Abel Sunday Udo, Dept of Otorhinolaryngology,FETHA..

Dr Felix Ali had complications of Lassa fever & he was taken to Irrua Specialist Hospital,Irrua where he eventually died..

Dr Abel Sunday Udo,operated on a patient 3weeks ago suspected to have had lassa fever and he died this afternoon..
He also lost the patient..

The House Officer & the nurse that joined him in the surgery are presently on their way to Irrua Specialist Hospital,Irrua for expert care..

We advise all Doctors and Healthcare Professionals to be very careful and apply universal safety precautions as they manage patients..

Dr. O.V Nnadi
Sec.Gen,NARD

Ebonyi State is a well endemic state with respect to Lassa fever, Resident, House officers and Interns should treat patients and samples with utmost care...

RIP.
Even at height of Ebola no 2deaths from same facility was recorded.
Heard another death was also recorded at UBTH recently.
So scary.
The health Minister was probably so occupied with chairing Yusuf Buhari treatment committee,he neglected his other duties.

Nigeria really need the hand �️ of God. When most of our medical personnel are flocking out of the country, the few who are available are been killed by outbreaks!

We need God's touch. We do

Good save us.Speedy recovery to the afflicted.Meanwhile FETHA management should stop denying the dreadful reality of the Lassa Fever epidemic as Abakaliki is one of the epicentre of the disease.

In combating lassa fever

Cleanliness is key.

Keep the environment clean. Do not give the vector a chance.

Is it only death, death, killing, killing and more killings we'll be hearing throughout this year
No day passes by without one reading about sad news of death. And the annoying thing is that most of them are man made causes, few are natural

Tomorrow some people will come here and be abusing doctors and we nurses.
You see how the two doctors lost their lives trying to save a patient.
It's worrisome.
May God console their families.
