NIGERIA - HIGH ALERT ON LASSA FEVER
22 January 2016
THE GUARDIAN
ECHOES of the Ebola Virus Disease that ravaged six West African countries from March 2014 are reverberating in Nigeria as Lassa fever, also a viral disease, begins laying a trail of deaths across the country. With officially recorded cases now 93 with 41 deaths, the Federal Government has announced plans to set up an inter-ministerial committee from which ideas would come, as in the case of EVD, that would “deliver a final blow on Lassa fever and other related diseases.”
