World Health Organization Declares Nigeria Ebola Free.. by fatdon2(m): 1:25pm On Sep 24, 2014
The World Health Organisation on
Monday declared that the Ebola Virus
Disease had been “pretty much
contained” in Nigeria and Senegal. A statement by the organisation’s
regional office for Africa said there
had been no new confirmed cases in
the two countries since the first case
was identified in Senegal on August 29
and Nigeria’s last case reported on September 8. “On the whole, the outbreaks in
Senegal and Nigeria are pretty much
contained,” the global health body
said. According to the WHO, there have
been 5,833 cases reported in West
Africa with 2,833 deaths so far. Also, a meeting of the International
Health Regulations Emergency
Committee on Ebola has warned
against flight and trade ban on the
affected West African countries. ‘Flight cancellations and other travel
restrictions continue to isolate
affected countries resulting in
detrimental economic consequences,
and hinder relief and response
efforts risking further international spread.’’ Nigeria became part of the deadly
EVD on July 20 when the index case, a
Liberian-American, Patrick Sawyer,
flew into Lagos from Liberia. Sawyer died barely five days in the
country but not before he had
infected the consultant who
attended to him at the First
Consultant Hospital, Dr. Ameyo
Adadevoh, and some other workers of the hospital. Adadevoh died of the disease on
August 19. Another doctor, Iyke Enemuo, who
secretly treated an ECOWAS protocol
official, Koye Olu-Ibukun, in a hotel in
Port Harcourt, Rivers State, also died
of the EVD. The ECOWAS official who was said to
have had contact with Sawyer had
escaped quarantine in Lagos and ran
to Enemuo in Port Harcourt. In all, there had been 19 confirmed
cases of Ebola virus in Nigeria out of
which seven, including the index case,
died. Hundreds of other primary and
secondary contacts had been
discharged from quarantine centres, both in Lagos and Port Harcourt. The last case, according to the
Minister of Health, Prof Onyebuchi
Chukwu, left the isolation centre last
Thursday. Only one case of a victim who
travelled from Guinea was reported
in Senegal.
