Health / Case Of Lassa Fever Confirmed In Cross River(ucth) by Oogway: 11:11am On Feb 25, 2017
The Director General of the Cross River State Primary Healthcare Development Agency, Dr Betta Edu, says staff of primary healthcare facilities has been put on red alert for symptoms of Lassa fever, following the death of a young woman at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital (UCTH).

Edu in a statement made available to The Nation Friday said, “It is unfortunate that Cross River State is reporting for the first time a case of death occurring from Lassa fever despite all efforts made by the state to keep residents informed of prevention of Lassa fever.

“However, the State Ministry of Health is on top of the matter and several immediate steps has been taken which includes contact tracing of those involved in the management of the patient including the mortian; contact tracing to referral centers that were involved; urgent commencement of prophylactic rivabarin; home quarantine of those involved for at least 7-21 days and shut down of the O and G theater which was used for the patient and other private health facilities visited by index case to be followed up.

“At the level of the communities, primary health care facilities staff has been put on red alert to watch out for the signs and symptoms of Lassa fever in their patients and report any suspected case to the Cross River State Primary Health Care Development Agency or the contact numbers from State Ministry of Health.

“A communiqué has been issued to all Primary Health Care workers from my office which contains what to look out for, protocol for management and handling before and during referrals. PHC workers have also been mobilized to begin community sensitization on the prevention of Lassa fever in communities in Cross River State.”

Am not here to argue Inanities. Nobody has ever asked me 4 cgpa in d Federal Agency I work in, cgpa or class of degree is not a pre requisite to get a job as a pharmacist. All u need is ur Bpharm or PharmD. Our grading system is A - C(minimum pass mark is 50%), hence d reason why a school abroad would normally require ur transcript and if dy want cgpa ur faculty officer calculates it and u send to dem. Is dt ur own definition of being classified? U can call or WhatsApp me since u are so interested in pharmacy. 08037912612.

Nice reply doc, I have lots of doctors, pharmacists, radiographers as friends. We even engage ourselves in sporting competition during my internship. However every one should respect boundaries and limits. Fact is that the new generation of MLScts are not the last generation lab boy and girl with 6 months training or inadequate training offered to MLT at the monotechnics. Today MLScts are academically and professionally equipped to practice laboratory medicine, contribute to medicine and to humanity. Many Scts are furthering academically, advancing and diversifying to other sectors were there services are required.

Bros, remember when I said anyone can be a consultant, but in a hospital setting the consultancy status refers to the relationship between a patient and a doctor.

Baba I greet you



I've read it. It's a bill to establish a post graduate program for MLS. It's a laudable feet if gotten. It'll put for better trained scientists and over all increasing the welfare of a Patient. I like that.

PS becoming a fellow of your post graduate program doesn't make you a consultant in a hospital setting. Anyone can be a consultant but in a hospital setting Hospital consultant refers to the relationship between a Doctor and patient. As no country in this world thst I know of Employs MLS as a consultant in a Hospital setting.

The US even makes it easier ( As you commonly refer to). As it prevents the use of that title ambiqously. An "ATTENDING" physician is the US equivalent of a MEDICAL CONSULTANT in UK. And I have never heard of any such thing as Attending scientists. Just wanted to get that off the record before you start bringing thst in and asking for same pay as a Medical consultant. But I have 1 question. What use would a fellowship program in MLS provide to the patient ??

I tried googling Attending Scientist and nothing came up

OK I believe if you had taken time out to read what I wrote you wouldn't quote me in a hurry. Yes I know there's a huge pay gap between both professionals and I told you it's fool hardy comparing the pay of a pathologist who is most times a consultant to a scientist (fresher). Like you have said a PhD scientist still has a not so huge pay difference from a pathologist neither am I disputing that. My point isn't who earns more than the other.
That said I know PhD is academics soon there will be a professional postgraduate diploma only until then will the comparison be meaningful.

N.B: If you want me to provide sources to my claims just ask


Lolz, you make me laugh bro.

1st what do you understand by the word AVERAGE, i put it in bold. I can't compare a consultant to a fresh scientist. In doing comparism you compare similar category likes for likes. That's why i used the word AVERAGE, In US the top earning pathologist earn in 500hundreds. I used an average Pathologist and an Average Scientist. I won't do justice to MLS or MBBCH if i compare a fresher with a fellow bro. Understand the word Average. Your page isn't opening. Also understand the word Relativity is the watch word. I doctor always earn a certain ratio above other health workers in any health institutions if they're on same level. In US the ratio is wider. It was the same relativity NMA talked about when JOHESU started skipping and Doctors demanded to skip and they said we didn't want them to progress. Lolz. If the skipping was enjoyed by one part Relativity would be broken. But that's for another day. Hope this rests that case. In USA MLS weda PhD or Bsc don't come close to Pathologist of similar cadre in terms of Pay


2.) Once again you carefully skipped the question? Which Scientist in Nigeria carry out and inteprete a biopsy, you guys like the Advance Histopathological skills forget that General pathology and the Brief systemic pathology you did isn't enough

3.) In UCTH a set of twins I vitro fertilization was infected by a certain mutated strain of microbe that was resistant to the regular antibiotics. The pathologist had to carry out various sensitivity tests to figure out the type of antibiotic combination that would suppress that microbe. One of the babies survived and today she's 5years old. Even in pharmaceutical companies doctors carry out and supervise the effects of Drugs (antibiotics, etc) on microbial organisms, rodents and then mammals or test the effects of an antibiotic (new drug) on an organisms. Bros you didn't answer my question. If doctors don't carry out sensitivity tests who does MLS?

3.)Atleast you agree with me on AUTOPSY, as for forensic pathology in Nigeria what do you really do?

Bro need I remind you that POCT and the use of all those devices I mentioned earlier are standard practices recommended by WHO unless the standard health body of the world is a Quack As for the question what does the doctor do after those test.

There's more to pharmacy than Drug names, I did Pharmacology in medical school. It's no beans. You would 1st understand the composition, dose, dosage, counterinteraction and interaction of each drugs. Pharmacokinetics and dynamics. Uses and molecular physiology of the system the drug is acting on. Antagonist and agonist, etc and that is just pharmacology a branch of pharmacy.

Do you know my problem with you, you always leave facts to chase shadows. If my memory doesn't fail me you drew my attention to "We in Nigeria". You call POCT and it makes me laugh hard. Common spare me that after doing the POCT why not send the patient home? Aside using glucometer for patients which is allowed (despite its inaccuracy of results) others my brother is just termed quackery and an encroachment of job function.

So back to your question:

Microbiology: No pathologist and I repeat no pathologist tests for the resistance of an organism to antibiotics (basically that's not his work). Even at a higher level of resistance to assay for it it's still not pathologist who do it.

Histopathology: the biopsy you claim are most times done by a MLS, a typical example in the UK, MLS (Histopathology FRCPATH) now do biopsies and read histopathological slides quit making a fuss out of it.

Haematology: Stem cell transplant are solely reserved for doctors not necessarily pathologist. Even a doctor in family medicine can do that but to burst your bubble NO PATHOLOGIST in Nigeria has ever successfully carried out/done bone marrow let alone stem cell transplant.

As for Cardiac markers and all immunoassays (aside radioassays) are done by MLS (I even did one Cardiac profile yesterday grin). NPPB and H-FABP are still immunoassays but it's not even done in Nigeria and since it uses ELISA kits (wherever it's done it'd be done by a MLS). Colonoscopy isn't in the purview of MLS but rather MLS check out for markers that causes colorectal cancer.

Autopsy - No but who process sample from autopsies (MLS).

Keep your hierarchy bro we're in Nigeria (like you always say t me) that hierarchy is non- functional in some countries. Hasn't anyone told you Wikipedia isn't a reliable source? You saw a real case scenario and you are showing me Wikipedia (Mtscheew).

Yes pathologist should be paid higher than any conventional MLS (by virtue of Post graduate diploma) in any hospital but they earn almost same as their mates in MLS (PhD scientists who maybe specialists or generalist in Laboratory medicine [Msc and PhD]) due to disparity in certain allowances.

Let's start from the bottom to top:
There's a very big difference between a phD and becoming a fellow, a PhD is purely academic and the later is Clinical. Still a phD laboratory scientists or an MLS.D holder doesn't come close to a pathologist in terms of pay. Need I remind you there's something called relativity in the health care sector. A doctor always earn a certain ratio of wage above other members of the health team including the scientists.
https://forums.studentdoctor.net/threads/ph-d-vs-m-d-in-pathology.124602/

That would do justice to your issue of a PhD laboratory scientists and a Pathologist

Now to the issue of Those tests. You are always quick to run to US for facts. Which MLS carry out and interpret biopsy in Nigeria
And yes, Nigeria has done a Haematopoeic stem cell transplant and several other procedures

In UCTH Pathologist specialising in MCB Carry out sensitivity test, I wonder who does it if not the doctor.

Atleast you agree MLS don't do autopsy and forensic pathology. I'm not a pathologist so I won't know about several of those other test but I would confirm from my collegues at my spare time.

Haematopoeic stem cell transplant isn't done by any doctor bro, they're several things that come into play before and after that process only a Haematologist in Nigeria carry out such. I can mention several other procedures that i do that you guys can't but since we talked about laboratory tests I would stick to the Psthology lab.

Finally, POCT. Bro, the Doctor is the head of the headcare team he decides which other professionals to add to his management plan after waying several factors. Time is a major fact in determining the application of POCT. Imagine a patient in hypoglycemic induced coma, would I wait for to fill a request form and all that? When would the results be out? The patient would die. Please note that a diagnosis isn't done in a laboratory but a laboratory only confirms a disnosis. And if it doesn't correspond to the doctors fears another test is ordered. So I don't see where incroachment comes in here.

A know of a Nigerian Haemotologist who has done a transplant in Nigeria he was one of my lecturer back in school. I don't wanna call his name for security reasons.

As for Wikipedia, yes sometimes it has errors and not everytime. Didn't you also see the picture from Yahoo answers. Only in 12 states that MLS operate independently out of 50 in USA how many percent is that? And what does thst tell you? And those scientists you mentioned earlier have undergone years of training which an average MLS in Nigeria doesn't undergo. Please don't always compare a Fellow to an Academic PhD holder they don't follow similar career path. Your academic phD won't really give you much edge in a hospital. It comes in in research companies, and universities. Below is a comparison between the salary of an "AVERAGE" Pathologist and a laboratory scientists in the US u always ina hurry to bring in. And do the maths if they don't earn 3 times what a pathologist earn. Make well to go through that link i shared earlier too.

Happy Val
