A pregnant woman who went for her usual check up at the
First Consultant Hospital Obalande – same hospital that Patrick Sawyer was
admitted – tested positive of the virus on Friday. She got infected after being
treated by the same nurse, Obi Justina Ejelonu, who attended to the Liberian
carrier, Patrick Sawyer.
Recall that two nurses came in direct contact with Mr.
Sawyer and one of them died this week – the other nurse, Justina is still
alive. The pregnant woman has since been quarantined at the mainland hospital
where there is an isolation emergency centre for Ebola virus victims.
