EBOLA RESURFACES IN CONGO vs NIGERIA/CONGO DR GAME

Post by anointed »

If by now, friendly or nor friendly, airport protocols that used to be in place at our ports of exits/entries; then something is wrong with us. We dont need to wait for a direct flight from Congo to do fire brigade drill as long as travellers do stop overs.

That Congo match should be on Code Orange by now and a plan B on the cards. I suggest Ghana. They will be a good match since we dont actyally play friendlies with them.

What is new?

There have been frequent Ebola outbreaks in DRC since time immemorial.
Unlike W. Africans, the Congolese have experience at containing them.

Secondly, Ghana is the worst choice for a 9ja friendly so close to the World Cup. They will break your legs out of obligation besides they are in rebuilding mode.

Did you write this based on the thread I started yesterday? I suggested a plan B but I dont think the NFF is doing that.

The match is on May 28, not 27th.

As ITK Ugandan with the highest IQ in the land, why not just mention players whose legs have been broken in our previous encounter with Ghana? Ghanaians are classy and they play football, not legs. That's why our encounters with them is always worthwile.

You guys are just being alarmist about an Ebola outbreak in DRC. These happen quite often in Central Africa.
It was just that you guys didn't pay attention, until the major W. African outbreak which IMHO, was exacerbated by ignorance of the disease.

The Congolese know this disease and will deal with the outbreak as they have for centuries with meagre resources.

Until the outbreak hits a major city, there really is no cause for alarm.

BTW, I hope none of you raised a finger when Morocco backed out of hosting the ANC tournament because of Ebola.

Regarding your choice of Ghana for a friendly, World Cup bound teams do not typically play tough opponents so close to the World Cup due to the risk of injury.

Also, because of the rivalry, that game would be emotionally draining for the players with not enough time for them to bounce back from it before the Mundial.

WHO raises Ebola health risk to 'very high' in DR Congo

By Euan McKirdy and Meera Senthilingam, CNN

Updated 0905 GMT (1705 HKT) May 18, 2018

(CNN)The World Health Organization (WHO) has raised the Ebola health risk assessment to "very high" in the Democratic Republic of Congo, ahead of an emergency meeting Friday to discuss the worsening outbreak.
Concerns about the spread of the disease escalated Thursday when the health body announced the first case had been detected in Mbandaka, a city of nearly 1.2 million people.
"The confirmed case in Mbandaka, a large urban center located on major national and international river, road and domestic air routes increases the risk of spread within the Democratic Republic of the Congo and to neighboring countries," the statement said.

While the WHO raised the national public health risk to 'very high," it said the global risk level is "currently low."
The WHO's International Health Regulations emergency committee will determine on Friday if the current outbreak constitutes a public heath event of international concern.
A total of 45 cases of hemorrhagic fever have now been reported, including 25 deaths, the health ministry said Thursday. Fourteen cases have been confirmed with laboratory tests.

Outbreak enters 'new phase'
The discovery of a case in Mbandaka indicates the outbreak has entered a "new phase," the country's health minister, Dr. Oly Ilunga Kalenga, said Wednesday.
The case was confirmed in Wangata, one of three health zones of Mbandaka, the capital of Equateur Province in northwestern Congo. Previously, infections and deaths had been limited to the rural Bikoro health zone, nearly 150 kilometers away.
The spread of the virus from rural areas into a city has raised fears it could quickly spread and become harder to control.
"This is a concerning development, but we now have better tools than ever before to combat Ebola," said Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the WHO's director-general. "WHO and our partners are taking decisive action to stop further spread of the virus."
The organization is working with health NGO Medecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and other partners to boost the number of special isolation wards to treat patients. It's deploying about 30 experts to conduct surveillance in the city and inform local communities on treatment and prevention methods in collaboration with the country's Ministry of Health.

The Department of Health first reported the outbreak on May 8, the ninth the country has faced in the past four decades.
"This outbreak is very close to the Republic of Congo and Central African Republic. And we are taking it very seriously," Dr. Ibrahima-Soce Fall, the WHO regional emergency director for Africa, said Monday.
The Ebola virus disease, which most commonly affects people and nonhuman primates such as monkeys, gorillas and chimpanzees, is caused by one of five Ebola viruses. On average, about 50% of people who become ill with Ebola die.
The first human outbreaks of Ebola occurred in 1976, one in the north of what is now Congo and in the region that is now South Sudan.
Humans can be infected by other humans if they come in contact with body fluids from an infected person or contaminated objects from infected persons. Humans can also be exposed to the virus, for example, by butchering infected animals.
West Africa experienced the largest recorded outbreak of Ebola over a two-year period beginning in March 2014; a total of 28,616 confirmed, probable and suspected cases were reported in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, with 11,310 deaths, according to the WHO.

The Congolese use soldiers go cordon off areas with infected people and shoot anyone that ventures outside that area. Experience indeed.

"The confirmed case in Mbandaka, a large urban center located on major national and international river, road and domestic air routes increases the risk of spread within the Democratic Republic of the Congo and to neighboring countries," the statement said.

While the WHO raised the national public health risk to 'very high," it said the global risk level is "currently low."
The WHO's International Health Regulations emergency committee will determine on Friday if the current outbreak constitutes a public heath event of international concern.
A total of 45 cases of hemorrhagic fever have now been reported, including 25 deaths, the health ministry said Thursday. Fourteen cases have been confirmed with laboratory tests.

Outbreak enters 'new phase'
The discovery of a case in Mbandaka indicates the outbreak has entered a "new phase," the country's health minister, Dr. Oly Ilunga Kalenga, said Wednesday.
The case was confirmed in Wangata, one of three health zones of Mbandaka, the capital of Equateur Province in northwestern Congo. Previously, infections and deaths had been limited to the rural Bikoro health zone, nearly 150 kilometers away.
The spread of the virus from rural areas into a city has raised fears it could quickly spread and become harder to control.
"This is a concerning development, but we now have better tools than ever before to combat Ebola," said Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the WHO's director-general. "WHO and our partners are taking decisive action to stop further spread of the virus."
The organization is working with health NGO Medecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and other partners to boost the number of special isolation wards to treat patients. It's deploying about 30 experts to conduct surveillance in the city and inform local communities on treatment and prevention methods in collaboration with the country's Ministry of Health.

The Department of Health first reported the outbreak on May 8, the ninth the country has faced in the past four decades.
"This outbreak is very close to the Republic of Congo and Central African Republic. And we are taking it very seriously," Dr. Ibrahima-Soce Fall, the WHO regional emergency director for Africa, said Monday.
The Ebola virus disease, which most commonly affects people and nonhuman primates such as monkeys, gorillas and chimpanzees, is caused by one of five Ebola viruses. On average, about 50% of people who become ill with Ebola die.
The first human outbreaks of Ebola occurred in 1976, one in the north of what is now Congo and in the region that is now South Sudan.
Humans can be infected by other humans if they come in contact with body fluids from an infected person or contaminated objects from infected persons. Humans can also be exposed to the virus, for example, by butchering infected animals.
West Africa experienced the largest recorded outbreak of Ebola over a two-year period beginning in March 2014; a total of 28,616 confirmed, probable and suspected cases were reported in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, with 11,310 deaths, according to the WHO.
CNN's Jennifer Hauser contributed to this report.

Nice try!
Please, read the lines in red.

I grew up with these diseases (Ebola, Marburg and many more dangerous ones that your white masters don't even know about).
I know how my people have handled them over the years.
I have a feeling you are still living with Ebola.

26 dead already. Yet Congo can handle it. Did Nigeria that cannot handle even have 26 infections?

If only you will shut that your garrulous buccal cavity and use the contents of your cranial cavity more...
Why don't you show me how? :roll:
Read my posts again then take a very good look in the mirror before you post.

That Congo match should be on Code Orange by now and a plan B on the cards. I suggest Ghana. They will be a good match since we dont actyally play friendlies with them.
What is new?

There have been frequent Ebola outbreaks in DRC since time immemorial.
Unlike W. Africans, the Congolese have experience at containing them.

Secondly, Ghana is the worst choice for a 9ja friendly so close to the World Cup. They will break your legs out of obligation besides they are in rebuilding mode.
The Congolese use soldiers go cordon off areas with infected people and shoot anyone that ventures outside that area. Experience indeed.
Central Africans have done this for centuries.

If suspected sick people do not self quarantine, their neighbors, friends and extended family would kill them for attempting to "take" the rest of the village with them to their graves.

Always off point. It has never been about PH.

Any signs of Ebola in 9ja brought in by the Congolese players and fans?
Or was that also NOT the point?
