NEWS:Is Ebola Airborne?/WHO working toward licensing two vaccine for Ebola Virus Disease/Nigeria vs South Africa

Is Ebola Airborne?
The mass media was currently awashed with report that Ebola Virus Disease(EVD) ravaging some part of West Africa can be air-borne. This report have far reaching implications, however UN Mission for Ebola Emergency Response (UNMEER) on 3rd Oct 2014 in Accra Ghana has issued a statement that there is  No threat that Ebola is airborne. The body also asserted that there is no evidence and they do not anticipate that the Ebola virus is mutating to become airborne.

UN Mission for Ebola Emergency Response is the first-ever UN emergency health mission. The mission came into being in response to the alarming & unprecedented Ebola outbreak. UNMEER was set out to work closely with the African Union (AU) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and among other relevant bodies.

This would be relieve people in countries already overwhelm with this earlier report.


WHO working toward licensing two vaccine for Ebola Virus Disease
World Health Organisation (WHO) is making effort in licensing two vaccines for Ebola disease. This was made known in a forum with about 70 experts in attendance.

Ebola Virus
Source: CDC
Currently there about two candidate vaccines in phase I trial stage. This include cAd3-ZEBOV developed
by GlaxoSmithKline in collaboration with the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. It uses a chimpanzee-derived adenovirus vector with an Ebola virus gene inserted. The second one is rVSV-ZEBOV was developed by the Public Health Agency of Canada in Winnipeg.

Currently EVD have killed 4,000 in this current epidemic which started in Guinea, West African country. 

Nigeria vs South Africa
According to Index Mundi  for 2014 Nigeria has physician density is 0.4 physician /1,000 population (2008 est) while hospital bed /1000(2004) is 0.53 with 5.3% of GDP (2011) spending on health.

Compare to South Africa which Nigeria just took over as the biggest economy in Africa  she spends 8.5% of GDP (2011) on health (that was even when her economy was bigger than Nigeria) has 0.76 physicians/1,000 population (2011) and 2.8 beds/1,000 population (2005).

Certainly Nigeria has other places to be more competitive than South Africa.

Patients have their own inbuilt agony which could be from their depressing clinical condition like pain, discomfort etc. Certainly it is
Woman is Angry

  1. Relax in face of an angry patient, yelling would aggravate the tense situation.
  2. Try and understand the patient or relatives compliant(s).
  3. Appreciate there would always be angry patients- so don't yell back at the patient. 
  4. Genuinely listen to the patient that may just be the only thing the patient want. Genuine listening  involve not shifting you face around while listening to the patient. 
  5. Allow patient or relative vent out, may be that is just the only thing he or she wants to do!
  6. Resolve never to return patient abuse or insult.
  7. Wait for patient to first vent out before you reply. Before you reply, you may repeat the patient complaint as a form of clarification. This would make the patient realize you are listening.
  8. Listen to solve the patient's problem. If you can't, politely counsel and guide as much as possible. Patient's problem may be about your service directly, your institution or the helpless condition patient found herself. Go extra mile to solve patient's problem.
  9. Always show empathy in face of confrontation!
