Phame: the FG wld prefer to get it frm d US. For them, If it is not frm d US, it wont work. They fell to their knees when d US condemned nanosilver and, made u-turn to discredit d drug because d US said so without our medical team carrying out any experinment to prove its efficiency. U can imagine d kind of people we hav in gov't.How do you know the medical team didn't carry out any test to prove it's efficacy? Please tell me your source of info. |
phreakabit: When the sun don't shine anymore and it gets dark. . . You'd know your true friends. Because even your own shadow will leave you. God bless you Japan! Time to curb and earadicate this menace.Japan is your friend? Haha. What a joke! All these companies trying to get their untested drugs approved are after the long term profit. Right now, Mapp pharmaceuticals is working vigorously to produce a large stockpile of Zmapp to send to Africa and make profit. By the way, if this Japanese favipiravir works, they will mass-produce it and sell tons of it to African nations. These are profit-oriented companies involved. |
(CNN) -- Earlier this summer, Kelsey Mirkovic, a disease detective with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, entered a hut with her team in Gueckedou, Guinea, to speak with a man who had Ebola. Their mission: to get the names of everyone he'd had contact with while he was ill, so that they could stop those people from spreading the disease. "Who lives with you here? Who has eaten off the same plate as you? Who has bathed you and taken care of you?" they asked him. Just his wife, the man answered. Mirkovic and her team knew that wasn't true. They knew he had children, and they knew that in West Africa, families and even neighbors eat off the same plate and bathe and care for sick people. They explained to the man how important it was to stop Ebola, and that his friends and family would be treated with respect. Their pleas didn't work. Mirkovic saw this scene play out over and over again. One of her colleagues at the CDC who's worked in Liberia says preliminary data shows they could be missing 40 to 60% of the contacts of known Ebola patients. "This is one of the hardest parts of the response," said Dr. Brett Petersen, a medical officer with the CDC .Mirkovic agrees. She says she understands why Ebola patients don't want to name names: There was a rumor going around the communities she worked in that getting on a contact list meant you would die -- and the deaths would happen in the same order as they appeared on the list. "I understand they're scared," she said. "But it's very frustrating." http://edition.cnn.com/2014/08/25/health/ebola-contact-tracing/index.html?hpt=hp_t2 |

Feedmemore: I suspect they are up to something sinister too.The US gives out billions of dollars through USAID and several other channels to several countries including Nigeria. They are not saving money. They just don't have enough samples left to give out. And do you expect the company that spent years and billions of dollars to develop the Zmapp to mass-produce it and give them out for free. Mapp pharmaceuticals that developed the drug is just like our own Emzor pharm. Ok, if it was the Nigerian company that created the drug. You think they will give it out for free? |
So the advice is "Dont have unprotected s3x with an Ebola survivor"... I don't think that will be a problem. |
Some Nigerians are very stupid. A certain Pricewater whatever that probably doesn't know much about the cities listed here made a vague analysis and some people be like Ibadan for life, Kano forever. What if Nigeria's power sector remains epileptic till 2020 or the country divides. What if boko haram shuts Kano down with bomb blasts? Will our cities be among the top 10 still. I know the conventional reply will be "it can never happen" but that's what we've been saying and things keep getting worse. Africa is unpredictable. |
nora544: I am a christian and when you read my other post, that I work together with other woman in my country we build a school for poor kids in Kenya and I have two kids there, I pay the school and the food for them since 3 years because they have only a mother who is very poor and this woman didnot have the money that she can send their kids to school.My church sends it's members abroad on scholarship for education or training and provide jobs too. There are also motherless babies homes being funded by my church. We go on widespread feeding of the poor in our area and give out clothes, shoes and stuff to the less privileged. Do you know TB Joshua and the huge philanthropic project he's handling? Have you met all the pastors in Nigeria and accessed them or do you just fabricate things from your basement in Vienna suburb? How can you label all churches and pastors as bad? End your silly stereotyping cos your country isn't all that great. PS I'll like to know the website of your Austrian organization that feeds poor people in Kenya and the names of the two African kids you're raising. |
nora544: I know about the war it is not new.You must be obsessed with pastors. I checked out your posts and topics and it turned out almost all of them are about criticism against Nigerian pastors. I see you're an atheist trying to get some comfort by taking swipes at pastors. |
nora544: The company didnot have start the production , what they start was the production for the first test on human and after this test they can start to make more.We have research centres in Nigeria. But they are not many and funding is little because diseases like cancer and birth defects are not really a major problem in Nigeria. We are still 54 years old, suffered a lot of setbacks during the military regime and currently racing to catch up with countries that got developed decades ago. We will still get there —having topnotch research centers, but first we have to fix power supply, solve unemployment issues and boost our standard of living. |
Liberia only got 3 samples of the experimental Zmapp which shows that the company produced just a limited amount of it. Also information from the company indicates that it will take months before more batches of the drugs are produced. This clears the misconception that most Nigerians are having about Mapp pharmaceuticals hoarding the Ebola drugs. They don't have any Zmapp left because they've given the available ones to the people they feel need them most. |
pussygotlips: Good idea,It takes years to manufacture drugs and without the formulation from Mapp pharmaceuticals, experimenting on an already manufactured drugs is useless. |
onitshaigbo: You're ignorant. Igbos are and will always been Jews. Not inferiority or superiority complex, just facts. We are not Africans but instead came from the land between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.Deluded wannabe. So Caucasoid descendants of Jacob crossed the Sahara desert that is about five times the size of Nigeria en massse in prehistoric times on foot. And yes, getting free passage from several communities, kingdoms, empires, towns and villages on their way to eastern Nigeria. When they got to promised land version 2.0, they got some helluva badassical sun tan that got copied in their DNA and bingo... black Jews in the Niger! Dropped monotheism and embraced paganism. Lost their ingenuity to build pyramids and settled for huts. |
onitshaigbo: No, God loves the Igbos (Jews), the rest of you Nigerians are just gentiles, who are created to serve the Nation Of Israel (Igbos).Shut your festering gob! Igbos are not Jews and will never be. Igbos are Igbos. Inferiority complex, that's what you're suffering from. Don't tag other Igbos in your Semitic obsession and fantasy. |
Squidward. My only cartoon mentor. |
I guess it doesn't matter much if boys were kidnapped. There won't be any global outrage with online and offline hashtag protests. Where's Ezequesili? No political gains in this scenario, huh. Ha! Gender inequality in reverse?... almost funny. |
Oh yeah... just like the same way they sacked they striking lecturers. |

caseless: imagine the pain of pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and carrying baby all the time and having to put up with all these makes me to respect women alot.So men don't bear pain? Women only carry babies for 9 months. Breastfeeding isn't painful and childbirth doesn't happen all the time. Female animals suffer more. All these stuff don't make a woman deserve any respect. Good character, attitude and humility should be the main factors. If I were a girl, I'll commit suicide. |
9jacrip: LMAO!Biafrans fought against a combination of Russian military hardware, UK supplied armored tanks and heavy artillery, Egyptian bomber planes and ragtag unseasoned Nigerian troops. The records are there! Biafra and Nigeria would have been a case of Israel and Palestine today if foreign countries didn't aid the federal troops. Boko haram is at the doorstep of the northernerns now, armed to the teeth and seeking for blood and your elders are screaming like babies and giving ultimatums to the wrong side. Nemesis of the 1966 pogroms against Easterners. |
Olyboy16: Liar! So CCTV praises the west abi?? MtchewThey don't! They also don't pretend to be transparent and unbiased like the western media. |
BadBoy25: why should CNN report it? I would order my staff not to report it if I owned cnn. go watch china tv and get the report from there. stvpid animals ! I am now anti africa. i would gladly propagate any anti african projects and schemes.CNN is an international news agency and a privately-owned corporation. CCTV is owned by the Chinese government. The press in the West keep demonizing China and want us to see them as the bad guys. That was why I mentioned CNN. They hardly carry news about the good things and achievements of the Communist and non NATO or pro-west nations. I dunno why you're ranting like a fishwife about being anti-Africa, nobody cares about the online choices you make. |
CNN will never report this. |

Toktee: thunder fire you,was it the north that killed muhumed yusuf,next time read b4 u coment.A northerner was in power when Yusuf was killed unconstitutionally— Umaru Musa Yaradua |
candy: This your news get as e be sha. "The nurse prolly got the virus through her husband" when she had direct contact with the primary carrier? How did her husband get it? Was he one of the doctors that treated Patrick Slayer? More like she gave her husband sha.I think the husband was the one that had direct contact with Mr Sawyer and he's prolly one of the positive patients being treated. |
Another Lagos nurse has been tested positive to Ebola, possibly she caught the infection from her husband, according to The Nation. According to the Minister of Health, Onyebuchi Chukwu, the newly wedded nurse was among the people that had direct contact to the importer of the virus into Nigeria, the late Liberian man, Patrick Sawyer. It has been 22 days after the first case of the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) was recorded in Nigeria. The Minister of Health said her husband is among the 177 people placed under surveillance. He revealed that nine have so far developed EVD, thus bringing the total number of cases in Nigeria to ten — two of these two have died — that is the Liberian and the nurse while eight are alive and currently on treatment. On Friday, August 8, President Goodluck Jonathan declared a National Emergency because of Ebola outbreak in Nigeria. The day before that, President Ellen Sirleaf declared state of emergency in Liberia, as the country grapples with an outbreak of the virus http://www.naij.com/71048.html |
madamoringo: Nigerians and Africans just do not and cannot get it! Their brain and that of their leaders is made of cast iron lead + stone: stop waiting for others to care for your future when you steal $ 20 B that could be enough to finance AIDS + Ebola drug for a dozen years + enough left to build the best health facilities in the 6 regions of Nigeria. Then you can charge the Congolese, Senegalese, Ghanaians, etc any amount of money to treat this sickness. Well, if GEJ does not care a of 300 kidnapped girls and his fellow agents even deny that the kidnapping even took place, why should a foreign country care if all of una are kidnapped by eboela? How is that salt and bitter kola solution working out for ya, you lazy incompetent Nigerians and shameful people??Many countries in Europe and Asia can't manufacture drugs too. It takes billions of dollars to develop drugs and vaccines. Nigeria is just 54, and pharmaceutical companies spend well over 15 years to develop one single drug, now do the math. We're a third world country. We shouldn't be thinking of developing antiviral drugs at this stage. Let's upgrade our dilapidated facilities first. |
asadike: i believe by d grace of God and by d power of jesus christ dat nigerians are already immuned. Remeba dat d salt water rumour broke out and abt 90 per cent of nigerians administerd it. If tb joshua believe dat he can cure ebola wit anointin water,y nt beliv dat God has turnd d salt water 2 vacines 4 us.A disturbing profile picture for someone who believes deeply in the power of Jesus. |
They are either waiting for a surge in the number of infected persons before they release the drugs or maybe they're trying to develop a vaccine so they keep hoarding the treatment to make money from sales of vaccine. If this story is true. |
nora544: But we have people here they donate for science and that is important.You're an Austrian? Why are you advertising Vienna in a Nigerian forum? |

I guess their recovery was from prayers and good luck and not the drug. Are you kidding me, the experts are playing dumb that the so called experimental drug may or may not helped cure the two American white doctors. These expert con artists already knew the drug would be successful since the US government created the ZMAPP drug for the military years ago to protect Americans should the Ebola virus be used against the enemy as a biological drug. This expert giving the press conference made a stupid statement trying to cover up the truth. Of course they knew it would save these two doctors. They dont want people to know it is very successful since if it is mass produced and sent to Africa they will not get paid for it and or perhaps it is for the military and not public use..
