News: Dr Adadevoh’s younger sister NOT hospitalized for Ebola —Family

Family of Dr Stella Ameyo Adadevoh, the Lagos doctor who died of Ebola virus, after contracting it from the index case in Nigeria, Patrick Sawyer, has denied reports that the younger sister of the deceased doctor, Amy, tested positive to Ebola and had been hospitalized.
A family source said despite sources insisting that Amy Ngozi Adadevoh tested positive and had been moved to the isolation treatment centre in Lagos, it was not true after all.

“This information is 100 per cent incorrect. As I am sure you are aware, positive Ebola cases are announced by the Minister of Health.
“You can check with the official list from the Health Ministry. Amy got a clean bill of health on Monday after her Ebola virus test result came back negative.
“She left the hospital much earlier in the day and is now home thanking God. The Adadevoh family is well known and very popular and this misinformation is causing a lot of extra grief,” a family source said.
