Scientists Ask people To forestall Hugging & Kissing As They caution lovers ahead Of Valentine’s Day To prevent The unfold Of Coronavirus
Some scientists have issued a warning as we gear towards Valentine’s Day. In their warning he has asked people to avoid hugging and kissing ahead of Valentine’s Day as they believe this will minimize the spread of coronavirus. oro A professor from Queen Mary University, Professor John Oxford, said people could protect themselves from the deadly virus by employing a bit of ‘British standoffishness’. He also described the illness as a ‘social virus’ that could infect people by close contact and want people to cut contact off. He made this known while speaking to BBC Radio 4’s Today programme. He reportedly said; “I think we have to galvanize ourselves in our social actions – how we interact with people I think that is extremely important; more so than wearing a mask. I think that’s a total diversion. What we need to do is less of the handshaking, hugging, kissing, that sort of thing, because this virus looks like its spread by ordinary tidal breathing, not necessarily colds and coughing.” Another Professor Neil Ferguson, from Imperial College London, also stated in a statement that about 60% of the entire population could become infected. In his submission with The Telegraph he said; “Surveillance has started in hospitals across the UK of pneumonia cases, that will give us a proper picture. Our best estimate is that transmission in the UK will get going in the next few weeks; unless we are very lucky probably peaking two to three months after that. If it truly establishes itself in terms of true person to person transmission it will behave like a flu pandemic may be up to 60 per cent of the population being affected but most of those people having very mild symptoms.”

Coronavirus: Two Suspected Cases In Ghana Test Negative
The two suspected cases of the novel coronavirus in Ghana have tested negative at the Noguchi Memorial Institute, according to the Chief Executive Officer of the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Dr. Daniel Asare. The Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital on Wednesday isolated two foreign nationals; a Chinese and an Argentine for showing symptoms associated with the coronavirus, which has already claimed over 500 lives and infected more than 25,000 people in other parts of the world. Addressing the media, Chief Executive Officer of the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Dr. Daniel Asare said: “the preliminary confirmation was negative and the next one that came, which is the actual confirmation, shows that they are negative.” “Ghana is safe, Korle-Bu is safe, tourists coming in are safe,” he added. The Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research earlier said it will by close of day present a detailed report and results for the two suspected cases The recent outbreak has killed 565 people and infected over 25,018. All but one of the deaths have been in China. The novel coronavirus has been declared a global emergency by the World Health Organisation (WHO). The first novel coronavirus case was first reported from Wuhan, China, on December 31, 2019. Various countries have imposed travel restrictions to a varying degree like Singapore, US and Australia which are denying entry to all foreign visitors who have recently been to China. Africa’s first suspected case of the novel coronavirus in Africa emerged last month in the Ivory Coast. That case also came back negative. Ghana is one of only six countries in Africa with testing capabilities for the novel coronavirus. WHO officials have said 24 countries, encompassing most of Africa’s population, will receive the material needed to conduct the tests by the end of the week.

Pesticides Causes Low Sperm Count In Men - Professor Of Pharmacology & Toxicology
Prof. Suleiman Ambali of the Department of Veterinary Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Ilorin, has warned that continuous exposure of humans to pesticides is causing decline in male sperm count. Ambali disclosed this on Thursday night in his paper presentation at the 192nd Inaugural Lecture of the University (UNILORIN), entitled: “Preventing pesticides from poisoning away our health and future – the oxidative approach”. The don, who teaches in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the university, warned that there were evidence which suggest human species was approaching a fertility crisis based on trends in male reproductive health. He said based on the troubling data from laboratory, clinical epidemiology studies, it was obvious that the world would witness fertility crisis. Corroborating his reports, he explained that some Danish scientists’ research has also indicated that sperm counts of men have declined by about 50 per cent since 1940 worldwide. “The researchers analysed the result of sperm counts between 1938 and 1991. Since then several other studies have confirmed the decline. “Environmental causes including pesticides especially those that causes endocrine changes in fetal and pre-puberty life prior to birth or during childhood or during breastfeeding, are involved in the decline of semen quality,” he said. According to him, the effect of chemical pesticides on birth sex ratio is in favour of more females than males. He explained that this trend was worrisome as human activities continue to change the natural demography in favour of women, as a lesser number of male births occur. Ambali said that the use of pesticides by people have led to reduction in quantity and quality of food available for the well-being. He also said that pesticides have further led to causes and enhanced diseases to plants, animals and humans. The expert in toxicology who quoted WHO, said about three million workers in agriculture in developing world experience pesticides poisoning annually with about 18,000 deaths. He also disclosed that there was an estimated 250,000 deaths annually from pesticides self-poisoning world-wide, accounting for about 30 per cent of the suicide rates globally. Ambali therefore warned that the use of pesticides have led people to “poison away the future of our children”, while calling on government and non-governmental organisations to sensitise the populace against indoor use of pesticides. “Policies aimed at reducing the use of pesticides in agriculture should be put in place. “Farmers should be encouraged to use an integrated approach in controlling pests and develop alternative cropping systems less dependent on pesticides,” he said.

Obesity Related Diseases Among Top Three Killers In Most Countries - World Bank
WASHINGTON, February 6, 2020 — Long believed to be a problem exclusive to high-income countries, evidence shows that over 70 percent of the world’s 2 billion overweight and obese individuals live in low- or middle-income countries. Faced with increasing disability, mortality, health care costs, and lower productivity, obesity is a growing concern for all countries regardless of income level, says a new World Bank report launched here today. Obesity has a major impact on national economies and on human capital by reducing productivity and life expectancy and increasing disability and health care costs. It is projected that in the next 15 years, the costs of obesity will total more than US$7 trillion in developing countries. The report Obesity: Health and Economic Consequences of an impending global challenge state that obesity-related diseases are now among the top three killers across the globe, except in Sub-Saharan Africa. Recent data show that since 1975 obesity has nearly tripled and now accounts for 4 million deaths worldwide every year. Factors escalating the obesity epidemic include ultra-processed and sugary foods, reduced physical activity, and higher incomes, which often go hand-in-hand with higher consumption of unhealthy foods. “As countries grow economically and per capita income rise, the devastating impacts and burden of obesity will continue to shift toward the poor,” says Dr. Meera Shekar, Global Lead for Nutrition at the World Bank and co-author of the report along with Dr. Barry Popkin from the University of North Carolina. In China between 2000 and 2009, health care costs associated with obesity grew from half a percent to more than 3 percent of China’s annual health care expenditure. In Brazil, obesity-related health care costs are expected to double, from less than US$6 billion in 2010 to more than US$10 billion in 2050. In addition to directly increased health care costs, there are also indirect costs associated with, for example, reduced work productivity, absenteeism, and early retirement, which affect individuals and societies. Many countries across the globe are also suffering from what is referred to as the “double burden of malnutrition”—high stunting and increasing obesity rates, further compromising their human capital. “One of the most effective ways to address obesity and other non-communicable diseases is by ramping up investments in affordable, quality primary health care”, says Dr. Muhammad Pate, Global Director for Health, Nutrition and Population at the World Bank. “This makes sense both from a health and an economic perspective. Putting more resources on the frontlines to detect and treat conditions early, before they become more serious, saves lives, improves health outcomes, reduces health care costs and strengthens preparedness.” The report stresses that in order to avoid the risk of obesity in future generations, governments and development partners must adopt a comprehensive approach. Effective primary health systems will be crucial together with a strong focus on preventative measures such as mandating the labeling of processed foods; increasing consumer education; reducing salt and sugar-sweetened beverages, and investing in early childhood nutrition programs. The report also highlights the importance of strong fiscal policies, such as taxation of unhealthy foods; and enhancing urban design, such as playgrounds in schools and walking and bicycle paths. Financial support for the preparation of the report was provided by the Government of Japan through the Japan Trust Fund for Scaling Up Nutrition.

Lassa Fever: Enugu Govt Denies Remoured Death Of Nurse Advises residents not to panic
The Enugu State Government has dispelled the rumour making the rounds that one of the nurses that treated the patient who died of Lassa fever has also dead. Reacting to the rumor, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health, Dr. Ifeanyi Agujiobi, said that the information was false, unfounded and misleading. Dr. Agujiobi advised the public, especially residents of the state, not to panic but go about their normal duties. He stated that the health ministry will continue to ensure that universal health precautions are strictly observed". The permanent secretary disclosed that the state Ministry of Health has constituted a MULTI SECTORAL Rapid Response Team charged with the responsibility of containing and mitigating against the deadly Lassa fever menace. He further disclosed that "the death toll in Enugu has remained just one and by God's grace, all the people that had direct and indirect contact with the index case have been line-listed and are being monitored". Dr. Agujiobi added that blood samples of all those (23 persons) who had direct contact with the dead patient have been collected for hematological investigations. The permanent secretary maintained that "the Enugu State Governor, His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi is doing everything possible to ensure that this dreaded viral disease is well controlled". Dr. Agujiobi stressed that "the state government is poised in leaving no stone unturned to having a healthy Enugu State". He also enjoined residents of the state to disregard any information that does not emanate from state ministries of health and information as well as the Federal Ministry of Health. Elaborating on the precautionary measures, the permanent secretary said: "All hospitals in the state have been told to be on the watch out and to make use of all protective and preventive measures. "Bush burning should be discouraged for now. We should avoid garbage and refuse close to the house to dispel rats and other rodents and ensure that all food stuffs are properly covered. Canned drinks, bottled/ soda water should be properly washed before drinking. "All schools are encouraged to observe basic hand washing hygiene and use sanitizers. "The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) has equally supported the state with some commodities and the Enugu State Governor, His Excellency Rt. Hon Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi is doing everything possible to ensure that this dreaded disease is well controlled".

All You Need To Know About Lassa Fever
Lassa fever is an acute viral haemorrhagic illness of 2-21 days duration that occurs in West Africa. The Lassa virus is transmitted to humans via contact with food or household items contaminated with rodent urine or faeces. Person-to-person infections and laboratory transmission can also occur, particularly in hospitals lacking adequate infection prevention and control measures. Lassa fever is known to be endemic in Benin, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Mali, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria, but probably exists in other West African countries as well. The overall case-fatality rate is 1%. Observed case-fatality rate among patients hospitalized with severe cases of Lassa fever is 15%. Early supportive care with rehydration and symptomatic treatment improves survival.Symptoms of Lassa fever The incubation period of Lassa fever ranges from 6–21 days. The onset of the disease, when it is symptomatic, is usually gradual, starting with fever, general weakness, and malaise. After a few days, headache, sore throat, muscle pain, chest pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, cough, and abdominal pain may follow. In severe cases facial swelling, fluid in the lung cavity, bleeding from the mouth, nose, vagina or gastrointestinal tract and low blood pressure may develop. Protein may be noted in the urine. Shock, seizures, tremor, disorientation, and coma may be seen in the later stages. Deafness occurs in 25% of patients who survive the disease. In half of these cases, hearing returns partially after 1–3 months. Transient hair loss and gait disturbance may occur during recovery. Death usually occurs within 14 days of onset in fatal cases. The disease is especially severe late in pregnancy, with maternal death and/or fetal loss occurring in more than 80% of cases during the third trimester.Transmission Humans usually become infected with Lassa virus from exposure to urine or faeces of infected Mastomys rats. Lassa virus may also be spread between humans through direct contact with the blood, urine, faeces, or other bodily secretions of a person infected with Lassa fever. There is no epidemiological evidence supporting airborne spread between humans. Person-to-person transmission occurs in both community and health-care settings, where the virus may be spread by contaminated medical equipment, such as re-used needles. Sexual transmission of Lassa virus has been reported. Lassa fever occurs in all age groups and both sexes. Persons at greatest risk are those living in rural areas where Mastomys are usually found, especially in communities with poor sanitation or crowded living conditions. Health workers are at risk if caring for Lassa fever patients in the absence of proper barrier nursing and infection prevention and control practices.Treatment and prophylaxis The antiviral drug ribavirin seems to be an effective treatment for Lassa fever if given early on in the course of clinical illness. There is no evidence to support the role of ribavirin as post-exposure prophylactic treatment for Lassa fever. There is currently no vaccine that protects against Lassa fever available in NigeriaPrevention and control Prevention of Lassa fever relies on promoting good “community hygiene” to discourage rodents from entering homes. Effective measures include storing grain and other foodstuffs in rodent-proof containers, disposing of garbage far from the home, maintaining clean households and keeping cats. Because Mastomys are so abundant in endemic areas, it is not possible to completely eliminate them from the environment. Family members should always be careful to avoid contact with blood and body fluids while caring for sick persons. In health-care settings, staff should always apply standard infection prevention and control precautions when caring for patients, regardless of their presumed diagnosis. These include basic hand hygiene, respiratory hygiene, use of personal protective equipment (to block splashes or other contact with infected materials), safe injection practices and safe burial practices. Health-care workers caring for patients with suspected or confirmed Lassa fever should apply extra infection control measures to prevent contact with the patient’s blood and body fluids and contaminated surfaces or materials such as clothing and bedding. When in close contact (within 1 metre) of patients with Lassa fever, health-care workers should wear face protection (a face shield or a medical mask and goggles), a clean, non-sterile long-sleeved gown, and gloves (sterile gloves for some procedures). Laboratory workers are also at risk. Samples taken from humans and animals for investigation of Lassa virus infection should be handled by trained staff and processed in suitably equipped laboratories under maximum biological containment conditions. On rare occasions, travellers from areas where Lassa fever is endemic export the disease to other countries. Although malaria, typhoid fever, and many other tropical infections are much more common, the diagnosis of Lassa fever should be considered in febrile patients returning from West Africa, especially if they have had exposures in rural areas or hospitals in countries where Lassa fever is known to be endemic. Health-care workers seeing a patient suspected to have Lassa fever should immediately contact local and national experts for advice and to arrange for laboratory testing.

Nigeria medical doctors separate conjoined twins Goodness and Mercy.
A team of doctors in Nigeria have successfully separated one-year-old conjoined twins. Lead surgeon Emmanuel Ameh told the BBC the operation to separate Goodness and Mercy Martins at the chest and abdomen took place in November and the two sisters were now well enough to go home. He said the operation, which cost about $55,000 (£42,000), was complicated and lasted for about 12 hours. It involved 78 doctors working in two groups. But the medics at National Hospital Abuja did not charge for their work because the twins’ parents - Michael Edeh and Maria Onya Martins - could not afford the medical bills. They rely on Mr Martins’ salary as a painter to get by. The couple had first brought their daughters to hospital in Nigeria’s capital, Abuja, in August 2018 just after their birth. But the doctors couldn’t operate on them immediately as they were not well enough. They were cared for at the government-owned hospital for the next 15 months and their strength built up over time. The green light was then given for the operation. The hospital has separated about 11 conjoined twins over the last 20 years, but in those cases all the twins had been joined at the abdomen. The hospital’s medical director, Jaff Momoh, said this case stood out as it was the first time an operation had involved the lower chest wall, liver and diaphragm. Mr Martins said he was so happy to see his daughters alive and well - and the family were looking forward to returning home. His wife said words were not enough to thank the team of doctors and the kindness of the hospital staff. She said she had felt heartbroken when the babies were born, but now she was all smiles. The minister of health has visited the hospital to praise the efforts of the medics and meet the family - and the women's affairs minister has promised to give Mrs Martin a job to help the family.

Doctor Narrates How He Helped Save A Man’s Life Aboard Lagos Bound Flight From Kano. (Must Read)
A Nigerian doctor, James King, has recounted how he helped save the life of a passenger who was almost dying onboard a flight from Kano to Lagos. James who shared the amazing story on his Facebook page, wrote: Its getting clearer now, …why I was born.I just saved a life who would have possibly died midair in the aircraft I was a passenger in.I was on seat 14F of BOEING 737-300 of AZMAN AIR from Kano to Lagos.Suddenly, his head dropped.A passenger on seat to my far left on the other side of the aisle.The Indian man sitting besides him screamed and called the attention of the air officials. The Indian said it seems the man passed out.We were still several miles above sea level.Far from Lagos our destination.As it is with my nature, I was listening to some music with my earpiece on board this flight. I was rocking myself head forward and backward, my hands slightly moving up to the powerful music of SHOW US MERCY by Will Adiks.The movements to the unconscious passenger got my attention.I removed my earpiece.In 5 powerful long strides I got to the dying patient. To the Air Hostesses, “I am Dr James King. I want to take over. He is deteriorating fast.”The Air Hostess said, “Ok sir. Go ahead.”And she gave me way. I quickly checked his pulse around his radial artery. It was small volume, irregularly irregular rhythm.I shouted, “Any doctor, nurse or paramedic here?”No response.All the other passengers on board were staring at me with a forlorn look.As if there was an impending danger to all of them.I turned to the immaculately dressed 3 Air Hostess around me. “We can save this life together. His life depends on us now.”I turned to one of the hostesses, “Can you please get us all the medical boxes and kits in this aircraft”She responded, “Ok sir” and walked fast away.I asked two other male passengers to help me lift the dying man from his seat to the aisle between the airfraft seats, …so I can have more space to start my intervention on him.We placed him on the ground.I immediate positioned him supine and also freed his respiratory airways by tilting his head backwards a bit.I again asked, “please can I have any cloth or anything to support his neck.”The air hostesses removed their top suits clothing and handed them to me. Obviously well trained. Thank you AZMAN Air.I was surprised at such empathy by the Air Hostesses. I was truly encouraged and energised.I folded two of them and placed them under the neck the of dying man.At this point the dying man was already having rolling up eyes, …all white.I listened to his apex heart beat.It was very weak and faint.I knew in seconds, he would be dead if I don’t do something fast. I commenced CPR (Cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) on him.He responded.Then he began to convulse uncontrollably.At the top of my voice, I shouted “Can someone get me Diazepam please?”An air hostess ran somewhere to get it.It was 30 minutes before landing.If nothing was done fast he will die in less than 10mimutes.I repeated CPR again.And again. And again….I listened to the heart using my stethoscope.Some mild activity commenced.I turned to the chief air Hostess, please call Murtala Mohammed Airport and tell then to arrange an Ambulance before our landing.” She said, “Right away” and began to rush toward the cockpit to inform the Pilot to do so.When I was sure the patient’s ventilation improved a bit, I quickly withdraw 5mg of Diazepam and gave him straight intramuscular on his buttocks.Returned to the supine position again.Commenced CPR.Checked his radial pulse.I then announced to everyone that… “I AM buying time. He will survive.”I was on the floor of the aircraft kneeling around him.Monitoring every single thing I can pick from his reflexes.The chief air hostess came back. I asked her, “How many minutes do we have more to land?”She said, “in 5 minutes.”I again announced to everyone on board, “HE will survive.”Then there was a loud sudden noise in the aircraft.Then we landed on the runway.Three men/passengers carried him.We evacuated him very fast out of the plane.At the foot of the plane there was no ambulance waiting.I was visibly angry and now shouting at the top of my voice to all the airport officials.That the ambulance is at the other side. In a rage I said to them, “This is wickedness. We did all our best with God’s help to keep this man alive for 30 minutes and you people could not even get an Ambulance to wait here?”Someone suggested that he should be taken in one of the Toyota Hilux van.I said “No, it will kill him before we get anywhere”.I screamed, “Any clinic in the airport?”That was when their brains came back to default reset and they chorused, “Yes.”I said to the good men still carrying him let go.That was when we rushed him to the clinic you are seeing in the photo of this post.Its the airport clinic that is close to the Arrivals of the Murtala Mohammmed airport, Lagos. I explained everything I did and the medications given to the doctor on call.She took over.Then I walked out and looked up to heaven and said, “I know You are involved in this. Thank you Lord.”I stayed on the case thereafter.He survived.And presently in a government tertiary hospital in Lagos for expert management. Addendum:I actually came to Lagos for a humanitarian programme, an aboslutely FREE Medical outreach, poorly funded, meant for the sick and abandoned Prison inmates .We are all born to save lives.

Doctor Arrested For Infecting Over 500 Children With HIV, As HIV Epidemic Hits Pakistani City.
A doctor has been arrested and is under investigation for allegedly infecting hundreds of children in a single Pakistani city with HIV by reusing syringes. Muzaffar Ghangro, who has AIDs, was accused by at least 10 families of infecting their children with HIV in Ratodero, in Sindh province, Pakistan. But Ghangro has denied the charges, saying he didn’t do anything intentionally. In the past month, more than 600 people, most of them children between one month and 15 years old, have been diagnosed with HIV in the area in what has become an HIV epidemic. According to reports from NPR and the Associated Press, parents in April began to notice lasting fevers in their children and took them to a nearby medical center for testing. By around April 24, 15 children ages 2 to 8 had tested positive for HIV. Local officials then set up a camp where children and their parents could be screened for the virus and the results were alarming. As of mid-May, 410 children and 100 adults in Larkana, a city in Pakistan’s Sindh province, had tested positive for HIV, the Associated Press reported. Those numbers have since climbed to 494 children and 113 adults, according to NPR. The recent outbreak is now also being linked to major failures in the health care system, according to NPR. Most doctors in the town are untrained and many practice folk medicine, and diseases are often spread through the reuse of syringes, piercings done with unsanitary equipment, and a lack of standards for blood transfusions, the BBC reported.

See Shocking Number Of Nigerian Youths Who Are Into Illicit Drug Abuse.
Alarming!!!. 40percent of Nigerian youths still engage in Illicit drug abuse, a recent report by the United Nation Office of Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has confirmed. The report obtained by the Advocacy for Positive Behavioral Patterns Initiative expressed worry over the increasing rate of drug abuse among youths which according to them is responsible for the increasing rate of crime in the society and high spate of suicide. The Chairman of the Civil Society Organization Mann Bamidele disclosed this yesterday in Abuja during an awareness creation exercise for secondary school pupils on Drug Abuse- and violence among teenagers. Mann who pointed out that the awareness creation was part of activities to celebrate the World Children’s Day celebration with the theme illicit drug abuse among teenagers and the challengers noted that the importance of the sensitization exercise was because of the prevalent rate of drug abuse amongst the youths. He pointed the high rate of depression in the country leading to suicide saying most people fall into depression because of drug abuse adding that they have always encouraged the teenagers and youths that if they need to get high they should get high on grades, not on drugs. Lamenting that the awareness level of drug abuse is low in the country, he said many youths have fallen into drug abuse due to the lack of understanding and they could be easily lured through peer pressure. Mann disclosed they have been working with UNODC to sensitize the youths on the effect of drug abuse and the need for them not to fall into victim of being pressurize into the illicit act. The Deputy Director Child Welfare Social Development Secretariat FCT bemoaned the high level of drug abuse in the society affirming that the usage among used could be as high has 40percent. He said “Drug abuse among children has become a source of concern, aside the conventional drugs there are other things taken as drugs such as Solution for tyre, cough syrups among others. Stressing the need to raise more awareness on the menace, he noted that aside government, parents, schools, friends all have roles to play in addressing the situation. A Senior Resident Doctor with National Hospital Opeyem iOshodi said the effect of drug abuse is far reaching saying their is an high risk of mental illness and also limit productivity.
