Dr. Ameyo Adadevoh dies from Ebola virus
Dr. Ameyo Stella Adadevoh, the
Senior Consultant Physician and Endocrinologist, the doctor who attended
to Patrick Sawyer at First Consultant Hospital has died from the Ebola
virus which she contracted from Sawyer.
Dr. Ameyo died Tuesday afternoon at the Lagos State Ebola Isolation
unit at the Mainland Hospital in Lagos where she'd been quarantined.
Many are referring to her as a hero. Recall she was the doctor who refused to
let Patrick Sawyer, the man who brought the Ebola virus to Nigeria, leave the
First Consultant Hospital in Obalende, Lagos, when he attempted to leave. She
saved many lives by doing this.
She has been describe by many Nigerians as very professional, particularly in
her quick detection of the Ebola virus in the late Sawyer and her refusal to
allow him leave the hospital.
She's survived by a son and her husband.
May her beautiful soul rest in peace...Amen.
