The Federal Government has intensified health surveillance measures at airports, seaports, and land borders across the country following renewed concerns over an Ebola outbreak in parts of East and Central Africa. The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare announced that enhanced screening procedures have been activated nationwide as part of efforts to prevent the importation of the Bundibugyo strain of the Ebola virus currently affecting some African countries. In a statement issued on Tuesday, which was signed by the Assistant Director of Press and Public Relations, Ado Bako, the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare said there was currently no confirmed Ebola case in Nigeria but stressed that heightened preparedness measures had been activated nationwide to safeguard public health. According to the ministry, travellers identified as high-risk or exhibiting symptoms associated with Ebola and other viral haemorrhagic fevers will undergo secondary screening, isolation, and referral processes. Authorities have also introduced mandatory temperature checks, health declaration forms, travel history assessments, and stricter risk profiling at designated entry points. The government further disclosed that surveillance systems have been reinforced nationwide through enhanced disease monitoring, community-based surveillance networks, and active tracking of public health alerts. Public Health Emergency Operations Centres have also been activated, while Rapid Response Teams have been placed on standby at national and state levels. https://nationalnews.ng/fg-tightens-border-screening-as-ebola-threat-looms-reps-raise-alarm-over-ncdc-funding/ 2 Likes

Sonofgod1990:I feel sorry for you. You probably were not around when Ebola entered Nigeria....................do not pray it enters again as it will be worse becos of irresponsible youth attitude. NCDC itself is struggling for funds. Pandemics are like wars that you dont know the capacity of your enemy. Please dont trivialize Ebola or other viruses as they are very destructive |
