Ebola:Health Minister confirms a doctor has died of the virus in Port Harcourt

Health minister Onyebuchi Chukwu has confirmed the first case of Ebola outside Lagos.Addressing reporters in Abuja today, he said the medic died on August 22 after treating a diplomat who had contact with Patrick Sawyer who brought the virus into Nigeria .
“Following the report of this death by the doctor’s widow the next day, the case had been thoroughly investigated and laboratory analysis showed that this doctor died from EVD (Ebola Virus Disease),” 
He also said two others including the doctor's widow tested positive The diplomat was one of the first people to welcome Patrick Sawyer and is reportedly alive.
This is a big blow to Nigeria after they were sure they had contained the virus,with just one person under quarantine..

    That diplomat must be wicked for not turning himself in earlier on and the doctor stupid for not alerting the FG when he found out his patient has EVD.
