The Ondo State Government has confirmed that a fresh outbreak of Lassa Fever in the state has so far claimed 16 lives. The state government equally confirmed that about 84 cases had also been recorded since the beginning of this year. The cases were recorded in Owo, Akoko South West, Akure South, and Ondo West Local Government Areas of the state.

The state epidemiologist, Steven Fagbemi, confirmed this yesterday after a meeting which Governor Rotimi Akuredolu held with the heads of relevant agencies. Fagbemi noted that the cases had reached advanced stages before they were brought to the hospitals. He said 47 patients were responding to treatment; while 21 others had been discharged.

Well, that's sad, but I'm not sure if it's Lassa fever. On 4th - 5th of this month I knew more than 6 people that died in the community and a lot of people we're saying it's spiritual stuff. Pastor, alpha and herbalist seem to be doing teamwork these days.

Although some clinic was over congested to the extent of rejecting some by the most wack doc around here.

It's a poor community, no one gives a damn about the autopsy. So nobody actually knew what might be the cause of that.


Modified: no matter how poor man is, paki is no no no these days

Haaa!


A responsible government will declare an emergency in the health sector as s result of this outbreak.


But what do we have? A block head who is not even aware of what's happening.

As far as it doesn't affect them, their children can continue hovering around in presidential jets.

So sad, Mastomys rodents are bastards. They lived with life threatening viral infection (lassa fever), once their fluids generated from the body come in contact with any food or dishes. They are deadly, may help us in containment of viral infection. Lagosian are more prone, this one that rats in the streets will be following you as you're passing by. You can get high definition movies and series into external drive and pc including TERMINATOR: DARK Fate (zero,eight,one,four,four,two,three,eight,three,two,seven)

If rat is the vector carrying Lassa fever, the government should initiate rat eradication programmes like that of Roll Back Malaria and not restricting the local man from certain food bcoz most people won't stop drinking Garri and other foods bcoz of Lassa fever.
The rat in my area is something else and they've developed immunity for rat poison

Food don ready for corrupt health officials in that state, simply because most of Nigerians govt officials are exploiters when emergency arises.
