As per Frontpage Africa, the last demonstrations of Patrick Sawyer, the Ebola contaminated Liberian who kicked the bucket in Lagos, may have brought about the exchange of the infection to guiltless well being specialists in Nigeria.
Late Mr. Patrick Sawyer the Ebola patient who died in Lagos, Nigeria,
Mr. Sawyer is said to have had an “indiscipline” experience with attendants and well being specialists at the First Consultant Doctor’s facility in Obalende where he was being dealt with.
As per the report, Mr. Sawyer was inquired as to whether he had come into contact with any individual who had the infection however he replied in the negative.
Specialists at the clinic chose to test him at any rate and when they let him know he had Ebola, he professedly went into a fierceness and urinated on one of the nurse attending to him.
FrontPage Africa reports:
“…Upon being told he had Ebola, Mr. Sawyer went into a rage, denying and objecting to the opinion of the medical experts. “He was so adamant and difficult that he took the tubes from his body and took off his pants and urinated on the health workers, forcing them to flee.”
The hospital would later report that it resisted immense pressure to let out Sawyer from its hospital against the insistence from some higher-ups and conference organizers that he had a key role to play at the ECOWAS convention in Calabar, the Cross River State capital.
In fact, FrontPageAfrica has been informed that officials in Monrovia were in negotiations with ECOWAS to have Sawyer flown back to Liberia.
A text message in possession of FrontPageAfrica from the ECOWAS Ambassador in Liberia, responding to a senior GoL official reads: Your Excellency, the disease control department of the Federal Ministry of Health just contacted me through the hospital now, insisting that Mr. Sawyer be evacuated for now. Pls advise urgently.”
FrontPageAfrica has now learnt that Sawyer exhibited similar indiscipline behavior during his sister’s stay at the Catholic Hospital in Monrovia where she was taken because he noticed she was bleeding profusely and was later found to be a victim of Ebola.
Sawyer was seen with blood on his clothing after his sister’s death and had earlier demanded that she be placed in a private room.
President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf cited indiscipline and disrespect as a key reason why Sawyer contracted the Ebola virus. She said his failure to heed medical advice put the lives of other residents across the nation’s border at risk.
As one of the nurses who treated Sawyer died today, fears are currently being fanned in the country with some people suggesting that he might have knowingly spread the disease.
The Nigerian Minister of Health, Onyebuchi Chukwu has confirmed 7 cases of the disease and has assured that urgent measures are being put in place to ensure that the virus does not spread further.
