Senior Consultant Physician and Endocrinologist at
First Consultant Hospital in Lagos where late
Liberian Patrick Sawyer was diagnosed with the
deadly Ebola disease. She was one of those who
diagnosed and was treating Sawyer at First
Consultant before he died. Unfortunately she was
infected by Sawyer.
Her colleagues put her pic and case out at a press
conference on Thursday, appealing to the U.S Govt
to urgently send whatever treatment they have for
the Ebola virus to Nigeria to save her life and that of
other Nigerians at risk of the disease.
Her colleague Mr Okubadejo said on Thursday;
"She treated Sawyer because she was patriotic
only for her to be infected with the virus. I am
appealing to the U.S. government to send
whatever medication they have to Nigeria fast
to save Adadevoh. She does not deserve to die.
So, this is the reason for this appeal,"
I heard Dr. Adadevoh was one of those who refused
to let Sawyer leave the hospital when he attempted
to leave before getting the lab results. She probably
saved many lives by doing this despite pressure from
the Liberian ambassador. Dr. Adadevoh has spent
three decades caring for others and deserves the
crusade for the drugs. God be with her. #
