The Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Prof Akin Abayomi, has said that the world, especially Nigeria as a country in Africa, needs to accept the outbreak of biomedical diseases that is different from what people have been used to over the years.Abayomi spoke on Wednesday in Lagos at a press conference heralding the 8th African Conference on One Health and Biosecurity being organised by the state Ministry of Health in collaboration with the Global Emergence Pathogens Treatment Consortium.The conference with the theme, “Strengthening Health Security and Mitigating Biological Threats in Africa” is holding in November.The commissioner said, “The Ministry of Health of Lagos State, five years ago, was able to fight the breakout of Ebola from Liberia through the partnership they had with GET, WHO, etc., who had sent a pre-warning to countries to take precautionary measures to protect their citizens, and the same was done during the outbreak of COVID-19, which helped Lagos State to have fewer casualties from the pandemic.“The conference is one that we always look forward to because the discussions and resolutions obtained from the conference are what also help our decision-making as regards the one health initiative of WHO that we have adopted in Lagos state.”
