nwamabo247:
IS ratbbit(ewi)in rodent to avoild

First off, ewi is not a rabbit but bush rat,
Secondly the specie that causes Lassa fever is mastomys natalensis.

The easiest way to identify them is that they have a lot of breasts underneath and a longer snout. Some schools of thought have also suggested that the shrewlike rat Orr nkapi as is called in Igbo (also has a long snout) may also be a vector. This however hasn't been medically proven.

In conclusion, though ewi or bushrat doesn't cause Lassa fever. It is advisable to avoid rodents as meals but rather choose other protein alternatives as there are a lot of them readily available and inexpensive too

Got me running from Benin to irrua hospital like mad man
At first I didn't know it was even lassa fever

I spent almost 450,000 naira( every day blood test, pcv test, dialysis, drip). I don't know what type of fever it was o. But blood was coming out from her nose. Her belle and legs swell.
My mum cried all day and night... As a real niggarrr i was scared for the very first time in my life. Seeing the way the nurses and doctors were piercing her with needless to take blood samples all the time scared me the more
But it was later that the doctor said something about lasser abi na yellow fever. The doctor carried her into one machine room like that o. The doctor said it was dialysis abi wetin



Na hospital we for do her birthday and Christmas.

Has she been completely cured? How's her health? Any aftermath of the infection still lingering?
