It has been confirmed by the minister of health that one of the doctors who was respinsible for attending to the Liberian, who recently died of Ebola in Nigeria, Patrick Sawyer, is now sick with the disease.
The minister of health in Nigeria, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu said two other people placed under quarantine were showing signs of the disease, although it is too early to say if their symptoms relates to Ebola.
Since the death of the infected Patrick Sawyer in Nigeria there have been widespread fears that some of the more than 70 people he had contact with also develop the virus. There have also been rumours of infected people in other parts of the country which have been debunked by relevant authorities in the country.
Remember, avoid eating bush meat e.g Monkeys, bats, orangotans or any primate and remember to wash hands or body parts with soap and water after making contact with unknown people.
