First Consultant Hospital’s Chief Medical Director has revealed that despite the hospital heroic work in stopping the spread of Ebolavirus in Nigeria, they are not being appreciated.
CMD Dr Benjamin Ohiaeri told The Tribune yesterday that his staff and their families still face firsthand stigmatization even after being certified free of the Ebola virus.
He said: “Since re-opening, we have witnessed firsthand what it means to be stigmatized. At a time when you would think we would be appreciated for our professionalism in containing Ebola, we are enduring a significant depletion in patient-turn up.
