Since the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) by the World Health Organization (WHO), there are over 183 million COVID-19 confirmed cases, and a staggering 4 million deaths worldwide. To date, this global COVID-19 death toll almost totals the entire population of Liberia.

The Global North (a specific reference to countries in Europe and North America) is making progress in vaccinating its populations, while the Global South (countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Oceania, often referred to as ‘least developed’ or ‘developing’) is disproportionally affected. With more fragile health systems, sub-Saharan Africa will very likely become home to the next COVID-19 hotspots.
Lab result of first suspected case is still pending
Dr. Wilhemina Jallah, Minister of Health of Liberia, has disclosed that there is no confirmed case of the deadly Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) in the country following reports earlier yesterday that a woman from neighboring Guinea was suspected of the virus in a local health facility in Monrovia. Though the Minister remains the official spokesperson whose statement about health matters is indisputable, she is speaking ahead of the disclosure of the laboratory result of the suspected case.
Late Wednesday evening (February 17, 2021), news broke out that a lady visited Dr. Swaray’s clinic in Paynesville and was suspected of bearing signs and symptoms of Ebola, thereby leading to her immediate referral to the Redemption Hospital where she is still undergoing proper medical monitoring and care.
