at the First Consultant Hospital has been
confirmed positive with the Ebola virus.
Speaking at a news conference today, the
Nigerian Minister of Health, Professor
Onyebuchi Chukwu said the doctor is
currently undergoing treatment at the
quarantine centre in Lagos.
Prof Onyebuchi revealed that some of the
169 secondary contacts of Sawyer were no
longer under surveillance and had been
released, having completed the 21 days of
incubation period.
The Minister also said the nurse who had
escaped the quarantine center in Lagos and
traveled to Enugu state has been returned
back to Lagos with her husband in a special
traveling ambulance.
'In Enugu yesterday, there were 21
secondary contacts with the nurse. But
after investigations, there are only 6
secondary contacts now. The nurse who
is newly wedded had no symptoms of
the disease when she traveled to Enugu.
She was transported back to Lagos in a
special ambulance with her husband.
Her husband is under quarantine now”

OJB Jezreel puts stop to donations
In a press conference that held yesterday, OJB said: "Appreciate all those who stood by me one way or the other. I'm sincerely grateful and feel blessed that people could go miles just to make me well again. Now that I have gotten all the money needed for my medical bill, I want to officially put a stop to all forms of appeal or request in bid to save OJB. I want Nigerians to know that I have gotten the N16million needed for my treatment. Therefore, no donation should again be made to any source in respect of the said case. I will be going for my operation by mid August" @LastßornNews(07060428346)
