Our leaders have failed us.

Most importantly, we have failed ourselves.

1stola: I'm a Nigerian and a Medical Practitioner (Laboratory
Technologist) and I will love to volunteer in order to curtail the
Ebola epidermic. I wouldn't also mind to travel to any African
country where the virus has killed lots of people.
Seriously, I'm not just trying to seek attention here.
I'm also currently doing a research on how prevent the spread
and possibly, the remedy.
Please, who knows how I can go about it?

Good luck bro. Best wishes.

Having BEA scholarship on merit is akin to the proverbial camel passing through the eye of a needle.

I nearly procrastinated this post.

You don arrange your educational qualifications to return abi?

Have you been evaluated by a surgeon yet?

After dem don chop clean mouth...

Stop hallucinating

1.9 billion naira.

Another potential avenue for a looting spree.

Just when you thought you had it all- you realize that health is more important than it all.

Reminds me of Dan Brown's Inferno

redcliff: Cant tou see that the ambulance guys are well kitted up? What else are you looking for?

I need a diagnosis from the physician in charge of the said patient that he/she has an Ebola Virus disease!! We don't diagnose disease with ambulance, clothing and photos.

JEITO: are they not the professionals trained to handle such epidemic?

Epidemics are handled with facilities and resources.

The first aphorism of occupational health states:

" unless and until the employer(government) has done everything - and everything means a good deal- the workman(health workers) can do next to nothing to protect himself, although he is naturally working enough to do his share"

- Sir Thomas Legg

Big question: so far what has the government done to protect the health workers in this looming epidemic?

atlwireles: You don't have to work mister, it is really not my problem.

Neither is it mine.

tit: Is it carpenter or pharmacist that will put the measures?

Anyway, who wan die?
The doctors no fit treat ordinary typhoid, na ebola them go come show power?

Typhoid is not ordinary. Learn some more about "ordinary" typhoid, then we can talk.

atlwireles: Imagine an Ebola crisis on our door step, yet our doctors want to be on strike.

What measures have you put in place to ensure that these doctors won't die from the same Ebola? Ward coats and gloves?

Good luck to the ex-NMA boss in all his future endeavors.

Has the patient been confirmed as having Ebola virus disease?

We don't diagnose disease with ambulance, clothing and photos.

Our leaders have failed us.

Most importantly, we have failed ourselves.

**refuses handshake**

Forgive me father, for I have sinned.

Now I know why I keep getting all these babes. Guys like you make my job easy.

overhypedsteve: so what happens when this two strands of virus mix together in a dangerous hot scientific concoction. What do we get? I see all your bogus scientific knowledge cannot help you to answer this scientifically sophisticated question put forward to you. By someone who have seen the depth of so many scientific text and publication. What you get when two bogusely named viral strains come together in a simmering scientific concoction is a VIRAL PEPPERSOUP yes. And i did all this research laying on my scientific bed lying on my scientific white lab bedsheet and typing on my scientific phone.

What is the young man saying?
Have you had breakfast?

Post-mortem therapeutic joke!!!

Lets hope the Thalidomide-Behcets disease incident doesn't repeat itself with ZMAPP. You would wish you died with Ebola.

That article was referring to Enteroviruses. Ebola virus is a Filovirus - one million miles away from the Genus of Enteroviruses. For starters, Enteroviruses are positive-sense single stranded RNA viruses, Ebola viruses are negative sense single stranded RNA viruses, not to talk about the many other morpho-genomic and microbial distinctive patterns - so what exactly are we talking about here?

Please learn to ask questions. If you're too big to do that, do some research.

"I wanna hit that a.rse"

Nokia torch.
Reason: self explanatory

n9jaboy: What i mean by resistant is -he tries to withdraw/pull back his hand if you take it to an uncomfortable position unlike before that he wont respond

Wow. That's something. Please continue the physiotherapy. The outcome is considerably okay. Nerves take long to heal- you have to understand that. Don't let desperation lead you to do "things"( I heard you mention traditional man). No one knows limbs and fractures better than the surgeons.

You & ur wife can also exercise the hand in all range of motions around the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand joints. Your boy is gonna be fine-best believe. Seek specialist advise before taking a step. In cases like this, your desperate desire to do "very good" might turns out otherwise. God forbid. You wouldn't want that. But take it easy.

n9jaboy: Please are you a doctor? Do you conduct EMI Test in your hospital or do you know any hospital that do conduct exploratory surgery. I will appreciate any info on this

I'm not a doctor. If you're not satisfied with the care given to you at the hospital managing you, you can ask to be referred to a specialist - a pediatric neurosurgeon/neurosurgeon in a teaching hospital close to you. I hope you get all the help you need.

n9jaboy: Yes lately my wifey and i noticed so resistant @ both upper and lower hand plus he wiggles his fingers

Dd you say so resistant ? What does that mean exactly ? Physiotherapy might bring your boy's arm back if done consistently and rightly. Continue doing the physiotherapy - it's the main thing. If by 6-8 months you're not satisfied with the progress of improvement, you can opt for surgery.
