WHO To Officially Declare Nigeria And Senegal Ebola Free

The World Health Organization is set to declare Nigeria and Senegal Ebola free within this week.

According to a statement signed by the Director of Information in the Ministry of Health, Mrs. Ayotunde Adesugba, WHO will soon make the official declaration after Nigeria successfully curbed the virus which was imported into the country by Liberia-American, Patrick Sawyer, in July.

The country recorded seven deaths in the process.
The man who discovered Ebola said,
‘In a convalescent male, the virus can persist in semen for at least 70 days; one study suggests persistence for more than 90 days,’ the WHO said in an information note on Monday.
‘Certainly, the advice has to be for survivors to use a cond•m, to not have unprotected s*x, for 90 days,’ said Peter Piot, a professor
at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and a discoverer of Ebola in 1976
