Another Man Infected With Ebola Virus In Lagos State Nigeria: Late Liberian, Patrick Sawyer’s Aide Shows Signs Of Infection
Less than 7 days after the death of a Liberian Health Official who came to Nigeria for a conference, another case of Ebola infection has been reported.
An airport personnel who helped the deceased out of the airplane on arrival in Lagos has showed signs of infection.
The latest victim, who was said to have helped the late Sawyer, but has not yet been named, was among the 59 persons the Federal Government and the Lagos State Government registered to have had contact with the late Sawyer immediately on his arrival in Nigeria on Sunday, July 20.
Early symptoms of EVD include fever, headache, chills, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, sore throat, headache and joint pains, while later symptoms include bleeding from the eyes, ears nose, and the mouth as well as the rectum, eye swelling, swelling of the genitals and rashes all over the body that often contain blood. It could progress to coma, shock and death.
As at four days after Sawyer’s death in Nigeria, precisely, Monday, July 27, the Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Dr. Jide Idris, said 20 of the 59 people registered to have had contact with Sawyer had been physically screened. He said 50 per cent of these 20 people had type one contact with Sawyer and 50 per cent had type two contact.
It takes 7-21 days for the virus to manifest and yet the health ministry was quick to state that no other victims are in nigeria. Anything to look 'good'

And I suppose this new "person" has gone home to his family, if married maybe SLEPT with his wife.
ATE from the SAME plate as his immediate family, invited guests, neighbours! SALIVA passing from one "guest" to another.
Used the same TOILET and bathroom as the rest of the family or if he lives in congested conditions - he SHARES a toilet with 200 other tenants.
KISSED his wife/girlfriend goodbye when leaving for work. When he left she kissed the CHILDREN on the mouth!
Ate in the canteen with other staff of the airport with cutlery (that is non disposable to save cost!)
If he does not have his own private car, he would use PUBLIC TRANSPORT - wiping sweat of his forehead, EYES and face.
And in this HOT weather he most probably was SWEATING, wiping his face, touching other passengers, holding on to seats (in the bus), shaking the hands of others with his sweaty palm, sneezing, coughing and rushing to a "bush" to vomit!
He most probably SPAT on the ground to clear his throat (as Nigerians are prone to do) - and an UNIDENTIFIED Nigerian stepped on it AND TOOK IT HOME on the sole of their shoes/sandals/slippers/bare feet TO HIS/HER OWN FAMILY - and so the chain of INFECTED Nigerians spreads!!
And SO the spreading of EBOLA continues.

African's i just want to use this medium to reach as many as i can , and also to express my anger over this so called Ebola virus , it's enough, the westerners have intimidated us enough and we are no longer slaves to any body, this is western conspiracy to force the black continent to review their Same-Sex Prohibition , why would it been now ?? brothers 2014 the westerners threatened that they will scale down its support for HIV/AIDS and anti-malaria programmes in Nigeria in response to the Federal Government’s position on the gay rights issue.
And now this Ebola virus has been spread in the black continent to bring the government under pressure to review their same sex marriage law in other to help them get a cure for the Ebola virus virus, please Africans think about this if am wrong with my expression, now the virus is not even killing people but the fear of the virus . the symptoms of this virus seems like that of a chemical weapon that was tested and used in the middle east, i know what am saying i have a point and i know am not far from the truth.
