Egypt’s health ministry on Friday confirmed its first case of the novel coronavirus, making it the first in Africa.
The sufferer was not Egyptian, the ministry said in a statement, without specifying the nationality.

“The ministry has taken preventative measures and is monitoring the patient… who is stable,” said health ministry spokesman Khaled Megahed.

Egyptian authorities had notified the World Health Organization and the patient been placed in quarantined isolation in hospital.

The death toll from the epidemic virus has neared 1,400 cases, almost exclusively in China where it was first identified.

Deep trade links with China and often overstretched healthcare systems have raised concerns about the capacity of African countries to respond to an outbreak.

Earlier this month, Egypt suspended all flights on its national carrier to China. They will remain grounded until the end of the month.

Three hundred and one Egyptians were evacuated from Wuhan, epicentre of the virus in China, and have remained in quarantine for 14 days.

It would have been confirmed that the SE/SS are deliberately being shut out of APC.

GEJ and Madam Patience's visits to Aso rock some days back may have been to sway the Supreme court to favour David Lyon.

This is not funny. Anything that makes it enter Nigeria, then it would spread way faster than in China.

Interesting times..

How much research have we done on Lassa fever since the 1960s when it was first discovered in Nigeria. Have we worked on vaccines or tried a cure?

I posted a thread on the lamentations of Doctors about it but it wasn't moved to frontpage. We are only concerned about Coronavirus even when this lassa has killed many people including Doctors and Nurses with no help in sight.

This is the thread https://www.nairaland.com/5682825/why-silence-lassa-fever neglected by lalasticlala but everything coronavirus is moved to front page.
