A woman in Nigeria died of Lassa fever, leading to a hospital closure, safe burial, and contact tracing.
A 54-year-old woman in Benue State died from confirmed Lassa fever, prompting the closure of a private hospital and mortuary in Okpokwu after community members seized her body and defied health protocols.
Health officials, led by Commissioner Dr. Paul Ogwuche, recovered the body and oversaw a safe burial in Orokam under WHO and NCDC guidelines.
All close contacts were traced and placed under surveillance.
The facility remains sealed for decontamination, and public health campaigns are underway to combat misinformation and promote reporting of symptoms.
