US Seeks Nigeria's Assitance to Fight Ebola?


Due to the impressive methods carried out by Nigeria to contain the spread of the Ebola Disease Virus- EDV, the United States’ Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is  seeking for Nigeria’s assistance to
contain the virus following the discovery of the first case of Ebola Virus diagnosed in the United States as the CDC has sent its staff to study how Nigeria contained the deadly disease in a report by Vanguard.

In a statement issued by the CDC Director Tom Frieden, he states that Nigeria’s “extensive response to a single case of Ebola shows that control is possible with rapid, focused interventions.” In addition to visiting Nigeria, CDC officials will also visit Senegal to study its containment model.
