Uganda had declared an outbreak of Ebola after a 24-year-old male exhibited symptoms of the disease, tested positive, and later died.In a statement on Tuesday, NCDC said its multi-sectoral national emerging viral haemorrhagic diseases technical working group , in collaboration with partners and stakeholders, has conducted a rapid risk assessment to guide in-country preparedness activities.
“The likelihood of spread in Nigeria following importation is high due to the gatherings and travel associated with politics, the coming yuletide as well as other religious gatherings and festivals during the last few months of the year.”The NCDC, however, said despite the risk assessment, Nigeria has the capacity to respond effectively in the event of an outbreak.
“However, diagnostic capacity will be scaled up to other laboratories in cities with important Points of Entry and others as may be required.
NCDCgov And what is the federal government doing to check this, because they seem to be so silent on this, but putting more energy in politics.
