Ebola: FG sets up isolation centres at airports

In a bid to stall the spread of the dreaded Ebola virus, the Federal Government, in conjunction with airlines, have agreed to set up isolation disease centres at international airports across the country. The Federal Government on Friday announced its resolve to collaborate with foreign airlines flying into Nigeria on measures to prevent the spread of the virus. This followed the first suspected case of Ebola virus in Nigeria, which was made public on July 22, 2014, involving a 40-year-old man from Liberia, who presently is late. Airline personnel and senior government officials told our correspondent on Sunday that the aviation sector has been placed on red alert to bar the entry of the virus through the international airports.
