Three New Suspected Cases of Ebola in Port Harcourt: Pharmacist,Doctor & a Nurse

Three people have been taken to the Ebola Virus Disease quarantine centre at Oduoha, Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State.

The State Commissioner for Health, Sampson Parker, made this known on Sunday just as the Federal Government said another emergency meeting of the National Council of Health over the EVD would hold in Abuja on Monday(today). The last meeting took place on August 11, 2014.
 
Parker, who addressed journalists,  said those quarantined were   a doctor, a pharmacist and a woman who came into contact with Dr, Iyke Enemuo,who died of the virus in Port Harcourt on August 22

The pharmacist and the doctor are members of staff of Sam Steel Hospital while   the nurse worked at the Good Heart Hospital where Enemuo died.
Sam Steel Hospital was founded by Enemuo, who contracted Ebola while treating an ECOWAS diplomat, Koye Olu-Ibukun, who travelled to Port Harcourt after coming into contact with the Liberian-American, Patrick Sawyer. Sawyer died from the   virus in Nigeria.

EVD Centres should be well equipped with staff and materials.  The place should be kept cleaned and patients should be reassured that evd is not a dead sentence.  When evd suspects are awared that they are in safe hands they will not try to escape.  But the report we are reading abt evd centres are very scaring.  Afterall many people have survived evd even in Nigeria,

Into hand we commit our spirit Lord. Have mercy on your children's which you willingly give up your life on the cross of Calvary for. I believe you never let this Ebola disease supersede your power over Lord.
