We find it URGENTLY NECESSARY to remind the Ministry of Health and the Executive Mansion to pay swift heed to the recently reported resurfacing of the deadly Lassa Fever in Nimba and Montserrado Counties. Unlike Ebola, whose true source was unknown, Lassa Fever has been well documented and there are procedures already put in place to combat the disease effectively. One of these known facts is that Lassa Fever originates from infected rats carrying the Lassa Hemorrhagic fever. Here is the perfect environment for rats, cockroaches, mosquitoes and other parasites, who are waiting to carry any deadly diseases, including Lassa Fever, into our homes. No one will feel sorry for Liberia if we are again attacked by another deadly disease epidemic.
