There has been an outbreak of Lassa Fever in Edo State, and now, it has been confirmed to be 115 cases of this deadly disease.

The Edo state Commissioner for Health, Prof Akoria Obehi has said that the total number of deaths from this disease is 13.

According to her, they are capable and ready to combat this disease around Edo state but have however advised residents of the state who notice symptoms such as severe headaches, vomiting, and high fever among others should report immediately to the nearest hospital.

She added, “We have confirmed eight new cases of Lassa fever in Edo State, raising the total number of confirmed cases in the state to 115.

With the new figures, we now have 40 persons, including 26 adults and 14 children who are currently receiving care at the Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital

Noting that the state is adequately prepared and equipped to handle reported cases of Lassa fever, Prof. Akoria, charged, “If you experience symptoms such as severe headache, vomiting, and high fever, among others, you must quickly rush to the nearest health care center close to you to report.”

The issue of Lassa Fever in Edo state has been going on for a while, it is pertinent that other states be careful so as not to let it spread into several parts of Nigeria, as the country can’t afford to deal with another pandemic.
