Nigerian Doctors Suspend Strike Over Ebola
Public sector doctors in Nigeria called off their 5-week old strike yesterday August 7th to help with the fight against the outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in Nigeria.
In a statement issued by the Nigerian Medical Association, NMA, the doctors listed “the incursion of Ebola into Nigeria” as a main reason for suspending the strike.
Two days ago, the Lagos state government through the Commissioner for Health, Dr Idris Jide, had appealed to striking doctors to call off their strike so as to help contain the spread of the virus.
