Samakinr: Ive worked there before...ehm...I ran away from there... that place is a country of its own

Ayo25: ahahah, Alayabiagba ko, Ugbewankwo ni.

slightlyMad: keep doubting until you catch ebola.
it is better to be safe than sorry

himkers: since this Ebola of a thing became serious, you hardly see The police and road safety officials on the road stopping motorists ..........This is the part of Ebola that I love soo welll

Gboliwe: Try again Ma.
The question was " What are you into" and not "who are you"

sandijey: Fashola has forgotten the whole of Ikotun. The streets are breaking into 2. Its so bad. Igando is relatively good. Plus the housing estate there. I am guessing someone influenced the project at Igando because that seems to be the only way development comes to certain areas. Ikotun is just terrible. From abaranje to ijegun etc. You should see what people are going through on a daily basis. Not to now talk of ejigbo.

cuteboy2: Nigerian naira bank notes are some of dirtiest in world. Several microbial studies to identify organism they carry have been done many years ago before the prevalence of mobile communication and internet.

Ebola is spread by direct contact with bodily fluids of carriers of the virus, including sweat.
We all know how market women tie the notes in the wrappers and tuck it close next to their skin to prevent pick pockets. People lick or spit on their fingers to count money. I believe naira carries the spit of millions of Nigerians. Don't think of those who pick thier noses, butchers and suya sellers who cut their fingers, etc. You can add the list.

Besides, our naira notes are always damp and wet ensuring that pathogens like viruses have a conducive environment to multiply waiting for the chance to infect the next victim. I shudder to think of the mass infections.

Please wash your hands and carry a small hand sanitizer bottle to rub if you touch dirty money.
I really pity bank workers and those who handle bulk cash.

Ebola Facts

Please share this information with your friends and families and try not to spread panic on social media.

• Transmission to humans is thought to originate from infected bats or primates that have become infected by bats.

• Undercooked infected bat and primate (bush) meat transmits the virus to humans.

• Human to human transmission is only achieved by physical contact with a person who is acutely and gravely ill from the Ebola virus or their body fluids.

• Transmission among humans is almost exclusively among caregiver family members or health care workers tending to the very ill.

• The virus is easily killed by contact with soap, bleach, sunlight, or drying. A washing machine will kill the virus in clothing saturated with infected body fluids.

• A person can incubate the virus without symptoms for 2-21 days, the average being 5-8 days before becoming ill. THEY ARE NOT CONTAGIOUS until they are acutely ill.

• Only when ill does the viral load express itself first in the blood and then in other bodily fluids (to include vomit, feces, urine, breast milk, semen and sweat).

• If you are walking around you are not infectious to others.

• There are documented cases from Kikwit, DRC of an Ebola outbreak in a village that had the custom of children never touching an ill adult. Children living for days in small one room huts with parents who died from Ebola did not become infected.

• You cannot contract Ebola by handling money, buying local bread or swimming in a pool.

• There is no medical reason to stop flights, close borders, restrict travel or close embassies, businesses or schools.

• As always practice good hand washing techniques, but you will not contract Ebola if you do not touch a dying person.
