    • Stop Drinking Garri For Now To Prevent Lassa Fever – Medical Experts Warns

    • The Medical and Health Workers Union,
      Lagos State council, on Saturday, said that
      it would embark on public enlightenment
      to discourage drinking of garri for now to
      prevent Lassa fever.
      Mr Razak Adeofalade, Chairman of the
      union, stated this in an interview with the
      News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
      According to him, the house rats that cause
      Lassa fever are mostly in contact with
      Nigerian most staple food, garri, a cassava
      product.
      “We are going to encourage members of
      the public to stop drinking gari at this
      moment, it is better that the cassava flour
      is utilised for ‘eba’ because of the use of
      hot water. We are waging total war and
      that is: ‘War against Rats,’ and that is what
      we are going to do to ensure we do not
      have another victim of Lassa fever in the
      state.
      “We will also be telling them to ensure that
      their fruits and raw vegetables are
      properly washed if they must be consumed
      raw and cook to the appropriate
      temperature. The whole essence is to
      enlighten our people because education
      carries a lot of weight in this whole
      activity,” he said.
