Breaking News: Five New Ebola Cases Recorded In Lagos by Nobody: 7:18pm On Aug 20, 2014 |
The Lagos State Government on Wednesday said it has recorded five new suspected cases of Ebola Virus Disease on Tuesday. The Commissioner for Health, Dr. Jide Idris, who disclosed this at a press conference in Alausa Ikeja, added that two of the fresh suspected cases were secondary contacts. He explained further that the remaining three were primary contacts with the late Liberian, Patrick Sawyer who imported the disease into the country. The commissioner said, “The fresh suspected cases have increased the number of patients in isolation wards from two to six.” Idris explained that there were three suspected cases before the five new cases were brought in. He added that the suspected case ─ a Liberian who was brought into the isolation centre from the Muritala Muhammed International Airport ─ had been released, having tested negative to the Ebola Virus Disease. He said, “Till date, we have recorded eight suspected cases, five of which were brought in yesterday. We have 12 confirmed cases on the whole out of which five have died and five have been discharged. We are currently following up on 213 contacts while 62 have completed the 21-day follow-up.” www.punchng.com/news/ebola-five-new-cases-recorded-in-lagos/ |

They are contacts that have been under surveillance. And a new suspected case. The way these media houses have been headlining Ebola stories have been so misleading. 2 Likes |
