Dallas Nurse Tests Positive For Ebola After Treating Thomas Eric Duncan In Texas Hospital

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Thomas Frieden, MD, MPH, confirmed this morning on CBS News’ Face the Nation that a Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital caregiver has contracted Ebola virus disease while caring for Thomas Eric Duncan.

 

According to CNN, She helped care for Thomas Eric Duncan, the first person ever diagnosed with Ebola in the United States, Texas Health Resources chief clinical officer Dan Varga said.  The nurse is in stable condition, Varga said.

The nurse was involved in Duncan's second visit to the hospital, when he was admitted for treatment, and was wearing protective gear as prescribed by the CDC: gown, gloves, mask and shield, Varga said.

The official familiar with the case told CNN that the CDC will investigate to see if guidelines were followed properly. "The CDC is looking very carefully around the circumstances of this patient's infection and will look to see if there were any breaches and, if so, what those were," the official said.

A "close contact" of the nurse has been "proactively" placed in isolation, Varga said.

Duncan died Wednesday.

Malala Yousafzai Named Youngest-Ever Nobel Peace Prize Winner

Malala Yousafzai has become the youngest person to ever win the Nobel Peace Prize.
The announcement, made this morning, came nearly two years to the day since Yousafzai was shot in the head by a masked gunman who targeted her on a school bus in Pakistan.
Yousafzai had penned an anonymous diary for BBC Urdu in 2009, detailing the conditions under Taliban rule in northwest Pakistan. A year later, she was the subject of a New York Times documentary, placing her in the spotlight and, tragically, putting her on the Taliban hit list.

Physicians removed a bullet from Yousafzai's head before she was flown the U.K. for more surgery. The 17-year now lives in Birmingham in the U.K.
Ever since the shooting, Yousafzai has been a brave and tireless activist for education.
She addressed the United Nations on her 16th birthday and also co-authored a book, titled “I Am Malala: The Story of the Girl Who Stood Up for Education and was Shot by the Taliban."
Said Thorbjorn Jagland, chairman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, via statement today:
"Despite her youth, Malala Yousafzai has already fought for several years for the right of girls to education and has shown by example that children and young people too can contribute to improving their own situations.
"This she has done under the most dangerous circumstances. Through her heroic struggle she has become a leading spokesperson for girls' rights to education."

As Nobel Peace Prize winner, Yousafzai is jointly honored this year along with Kailash Satyarthi, an Indian child rights campaigner.

Simple Solutions To Shedding Pounds

There are few secrets when it comes to the basics of how to lose weight.
But, for a task whose fundamentals are so basic and so universally recognized,

slimming down is a goal that eludes a great many adults.  What are the surest ways to shed pounds?

The big two are known across the globe: Diet and exercise. The third key, though, is one that everyone will need in order to accomplish their mission of sticking to the first two—discipline.

Stay hydrated by drinking lots of water. It’s good for you, and it has neither a calorie nor a gram of sugar or fat. If you drink milk, drop down a notch from what you’re used to drinking: If you drink whole milk, reduce that to 2 percent milk, if you like 2 percent, drink 1 percent instead.
As far as diet is concerned, reducing the amount of sugar, fat and sodium in your diet will go a long way toward reducing your weight. You might be eating less fat and less sodium and still have trouble losing weight. In that event, pay special attention not only to what you eat, but to what you drink. Sugar and/or corn syrup is such a prevalent ingredient in so many of our beverages that even if we’re minding our diets by cutting down on the burgers, fries, salty chips and sweet desserts, we might still be failing at fat-loss by continuing to drink sugary sodas and fruit drinks.

In terms of exercise, aerobic activity like swimming, walking, jogging or bicycling is great for cutting calories, and it’s beneficial to your cardiovascular system, too. If you really don’t like to sweat, go for a walk. If you live close to a downtown area, walk to town instead of driving. Dedicate yourself to at least a half-hour of exercise a day. And if you’re stuck behind a desk in an office five days a week, make sure you frequently get up, stretch your legs, walk around and get your blood circulating.

Whatever steps you take in terms of either diet or exercise to embark on a weight-loss program, you’re going to need something else: Commitment. It takes a world of self-discipline to push yourself to exercise every day, or to push away that second piece of pie for dessert, or that salty bag of potato chips to accompany your noontime sandwich.

Remind yourself that achieving goals takes discipline. Shedding pounds is as much about having the right attitude as it is about eating the right food or partaking in the right amount of physical activity.

Goodluck!!

Abomination: Father Impregnates His 16-Year-Old Daughter In Oyo

A 42-year-old randy father, Segun (surname withheld) who allegedly impregnated his only daughter (name with­held), a 16-year-old JSS 2 student in Ig­beti, Oyo State is now in prison custody for committing the abominable act.

It was gathered that the story began on December 1, 2013 at Gboro compound, Igbeti, when the suspect was said to have asked the victim to come and live with him. Thirteen years earlier, he had divorced the mother of the victim, who was about three then. After the divorce, the mother took cus­tody of the victim and then remarried. Much later, the victim began living with her father.

Continuing the story, Oyo State Com­missioner of Police, Mr Kola Sodipo revealed that on the fateful night, Se­gun demanded that the victim should undress. She refused and attempted to escape. He threatened her with a cut­lass and then raped her, unconcerned about the excruciating pain she felt, being a virgin. The evil father continued the wicked act thereafter, and this prompted the girl to report to her stepmother who lived in a different house but she didn’t take the matter seriously due to the shameful nature of the act.

Recounting how her ordeal started and what transpired after, the victim told Sunday Sun: “I was living with my mother until 2013 when my father asked me to come and live with him. On December 25, 2013 my father woke me up and asked me to remove my clothes but I refused. He drew a cut­lass and threatened to kill me if I didn’t do his bidding. I removed my clothes and he forcefully had sex with me. He was the first man to sleep with me be­cause I had never had sex before then. I reported the ugly incident to one of his two wives who is a nurse and she promised to ask him but I don’t know whether she asked him or not.

“In March 2014, he did the same thing again and I ran to the house of his second wife and reported to her. She asked me to swear to an oath with the Bible but I refused since I knew I was speaking the truth. I started sleeping in her apartment. In April, he came and asked me to return to his apartment to do some things for him but I refused to go. His second wife, however, put pressure on me to answer my father’s call as he wanted me to do some things for him at home. I followed him after much pressure. “During Easter celebration on April 18, 2014 he had sex with me again. All this while I didn’t know I was pregnant because I had my last menstruation in December 2013. My stepmother sus­pected that I was pregnant and took me to a clinic at Igbeti where a test showed I was pregnant.”

Sunday Sun gathered that the matron of the clinic informed the victim’s grandfather that his son had impregnated the daughter. The suspect denied the allegation and began mal­treating the girl. On what followed thereafter, the victim said: “The case was reported at the police station on April 30, 2014 and I started living with my paternal grand­father. I was taken to General Hospital Igbeti, where my mother pleaded with the doctor to abort the pregnancy, but the doctor said he would not do it. After I delivered the baby and my grandmother was told the baby looks like my father, my father ran away.” She explained further: “When the pregnancy was confirmed, the Divi­sional Police Officer (DPO) and the Di­visional Crime Officer (DCO) were the ones who purchased the baby clothes and other things needed. They also paid the hospital bill. I am appealing to the public to come to my assistance and help me finish my education. I am in JSS 2.”

According to Sodipo, an ultrasound scan done on May 1, 2014 at Bethsaida Hospital showed that the pregnancy had reached four months. The baby was delivered on September 16, 2014. Sodipo futher told Sunday Sun that the Medical Director of the General Hospital advised that DNA test should be carried out to determine the pater­nity of the child but said it could not be done until six months after delivery of the baby.

In the course of investigation, the police were able to smoke out the suspect as Sunday Sun learnt from the Oyo State Police Public Relations Officer, Olabisi Okuwobi-Ilobanafor, who also confirmed the arrest of the suspect. The suspect was thereafter ar­raigned before the Chief Magistrate Court at Kisi presided over by Chief Magistrate Usman Isiaku. He was subsequently remanded in Oyo Prison and the case adjourned to October 24, 2014.

Ebola Scare: Spanish Ebola Nurse's Dog Destroyed as Crowd Chants 'Murderers' Outside Her Home

A Spanish ebola victim’s pet dog was put down last night over fears it could transmit the disease, prompting outrage from animal lovers who chanted ‘murderers’ outside the woman’s home.

According to Mail Online, a Spanish ebola victim’s pet dog has been destroyed over fears it could transmit the disease, prompting outrage from animal lovers who chanted ‘murderers’ outside the woman’s home.

Fury erupted after a government health spokesman confirmed that Teresa Romero Ramos’s dog, Excalibur, had been destroyed. The official explained: ‘Unfortunately we had no other choice.’

The animal was put to sleep inside Mrs Romero Ramos’s home, which was disinfected before the animal’s body was taken away in a white van to a nearby incinerator.

Demonstrators run in front of policemen and in front of the van transporting Excalibur

Twitter was awash with photographs of dogs, cats and birds which were posted alongside the hashtag ‘SalvemosAExcalibur’ – Spanish for ‘Let’s save Excalibur’.

Mrs Romero Ramos, 44, from Galicia in north-west Spain, who is one of the medical team that treated two repatriated Spanish priests who died from ebola, has been in quarantine since it was confirmed she was carrying the virus. 

Health minister Ana Mato is facing calls for her resignation after it emerged that Mrs Romero Ramos complained of feeling unwell six days before she was eventually admitted to hospital. 

Nobody ever told me to my face, "Teresa you’ve got ebola"

She was rushed to hospital by unprotected paramedics in a normal ambulance only taken out of service 12 hours later and found out she had ebola by reading a Spanish newspaper website as she waited to be quarantined.

Her home in Alcorcon near Madrid that she shares with husband Javier Limon Romero, one of those quarantined at Madrid’s Carlos III Hospital, was not disinfected until yesterday morning.

Six people in total have now been quarantined since the start of Monday’s crisis.

They include three other hospital nursing staff who helped treat Miguel Pajares and Manuel Garcia Viejo, the Spanish priests who died after they were repatriated from West Africa. 

Twitter is awash with photographs of dogs, cats and birds which have been posted alongside the hashtag 'SalvemosAExcalibur' – which is Spanish for 'Let's save Excalibur' - in a bid to save the Spanish 'Ebola' dog 

Twitter users have been desperately posting photos of their own animals as part of a campaign to save the dog

One Twitter user even took a photograph of his pet bird for the campaign, which has been trending on Twitter

As well as posting photographs of dogs, some users put pictures of their cats on the social media site

Mrs Romero Ramos was reportedly feeling better after being treated with antibodies from an ebola survivor. She told a Spanish TV station by phone: ‘Today I’m better. It’s slow going but I’m better.’

Revealing how she discovered she was infected, she said: ‘Nobody told me anything.

‘I suspected something because at the beginning the nurses and doctors came in every hour, then they stopped coming in and I thought that something was up.

‘I got hold of my mobile and that’s when I saw on the website of El Pais newspaper that I had tested positive for ebola twice. Nobody ever told me to my face, “Teresa you’ve got ebola”.’

She went on to say that she had been given only 20 minutes’ training in how to put on and take off her protective suit.

Javier Limon Romero (pictured with Excalibur) had called for the dog to be saved and even tried to get ownership of his beloved bed temporarily passed over to a friend and veterinary nurse while he is in quarantine

As part of the campaign, thousands of people started sharing and tweeting this poster in a bid to save the dog

Pastor E.A Adeboye of Redeemed Church Explains why He Doesn't Want to Live up to 100 Years

 
Pastor E.A Adeboye, Geneal Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, stated this while giving his speech the 60th birthday celebration service for Bishop David Oyedepo of Winners chapel over the weekend...

Read his words below:
 
"When I marked 70 and people prayed that I would be up to 80, I said amen. When they said I would be up 90, I said well, amen. But when they said 100, I didn’t say amen. I didn't because I don’t know what offense I would have committed for God to keep me up to 100 in this sinful world when a crown of glory is awaiting me in heaven. I wouldn’t mind to be 92 though, so that I will be alive to preach when Bishop Oyedepo is 80. But to live up to 100, I don’t know about that"
