New Outbreak Of Ebola Kills 17 In DR Congo by information1: 12:55am On May 09, 2018 |
In northwest Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Seventeen people have died from Ebola, the health ministry said on Tuesday, the fresh outbreak as a “public health emergency with international impact.” “Twenty-one cases of fever with hemorrhagic indications and 17 deaths” have been recorded in Equateur province, it said, citing a notification to the ministry as of May 3. It is the DRC’s ninth known outbreak of Ebola since 1976 when the deadly viral disease which was first recognized in then-Zaire by a Belgian-led crew. In Geneva, the World Health Organization (WHO) said lab tests in the DRC confirmed the presence of Ebola virus in two out of five samples collected from patients. “WHO is working closely with the government of the DRC to rapidly scale up its operations and mobilize health partners, using the model of a successful response to a similar… the outbreak in 2017,” it said in a report. It said it had released $1 million (840,000 euros) from an emergency contingency fund, set up a coordination group and deployed more than 50 experts to work with the DRC government and health agencies. “The action plan prepared by the health ministry has been approved,” an official statement released after a cabinet meeting said.

God please we have an irresponsible, thieving and inept government in place at the moment. Don't allow this disease somehow cross into Nigeria cos rather than get busy, they will blame Jonathan for not eradicating it from the whole world. Osinbajo will come with statistics of how money supposedly looted would have obliterated every trace of ebola and HIV. My condolences to affected persons in the Congo. I hope a quick reprieve and solution comes to put an end to this outbreak. 213 Likes 19 Shares |

This deadly thing is Back again? Please seal all routes to DR, no movement from there. When Patrick Sawyer spread it into Nigeria, I keep suspecting everyone, almost had heart attack when entering buses, couldn't even visit friends with ordinary menstrual pain, I locked my apartment tightly when I heard my Neighbour had fever! Pls, seal all gateways, I just can't handle the trauma. 27 Likes 2 Shares |

![]() Not good. Not good at all. Certainly not now we have a brain dead president who at the moment has jetted out to London for another round of medical tourism. I don't even think his minister of health knows anything about taking proactive steps to set up monitoring and surveillance teams immediately at all ports of entry into the country. If we were scared by the last epidemic when there was a marginally responsible government, this time, we should all live in mortal fear. Not good at all. 14 Likes |

I don't think the current Nigerian government is capable of tackling Ebola in Nigeria. Best they can do is to blame the previous government for their incompetence 15 Likes |
