Nigeria confronts slow Ebola response in Lagos
Nigerian health authorities admit a sick airline passenger was not quarantined promptly after arriving in Lagos from Liberia. Eight health workers with primary contact are isolated with symptoms as the Ebola outbreak nears 900 deaths across four West African countries. An American of Liberian descent who traveled to Lagos on July 20 sparked the Nigeria case. Two American aid workers in Atlanta are being treated with an experimental drug after Liberia exposure.
