Enugu Health Agency Issues Ebola Prevention Advisory for Residents
The Enugu State Primary Health Care Development Agency has urged residents to stay alert to Ebola symptoms and report suspected cases promptly. Ebola can spread through direct contact with the blood or body fluids of an infected person, including someone who has died from the disease. Early medical attention and proper infection-control measures are important. Residents should watch for sudden fever, severe headache, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhoea and unexplained bleeding. Practise regular handwashing, avoid contact with body fluids, do not handle suspected infected bodies, and seek medical help immediately after a possible exposure. Residents are also encouraged to rely on credible health information and avoid spreading rumours or stigmatising anyone who may be affected.
