Good day all.
I want you all to be mindful of your security. even as you pray Listen to news regularly.
The country is going through very difficult and unsafe times. Presently there are calls from foreign concerns to declare Nigeria a failed state. This is because of the level of insecurity present in the country presently.
We all need to be concerned about our safety. Do not say it can never happen to me. No one is safe. Relatives of the President had been kidnapped. Men of God, Security men etc. No one is safe nowhere is safe. Let us try and observe strict security protocols together with our prayers.
*ONE*
So I direct you all never to stay out of the house late.
Come back home or stay close to your house latest 6pm
*TWO*
Do not travel in marked vehicles. For example, vehicles bearing names, company etc.
*THREE*
Do not travel in groups. If you are to go for a program, move alone.
*FOUR*
If your area is being attacked, switch of all lights including any switch with lights no matter how tiny. Remove all jewelry on your body and wrap your phone in a cloth to prevent light reflection that can betray your position.
If you hear gunshot, leave your bed and lie flat under the bed and out of your window. Get out of sight. Lie close to any wall.
*FIVE*
Do not take ride in any vehicle that you don't know. Take public transportation at all times.
*SIX*
When you go out, dress normal and neat not flashy. Never wear any clothes that can get you noticed or identified.
*SEVEN*
If you are going out to somewhere, tell someone where you are going to and the expected time of your arrival. If possible don't go alone.
*EIGHT*
On no account should you visit online friends. People who you meet on social media, you should never visit them either in public or in their home or office. NEVER.
*NINE*
Speak very little when you are in the public and never comment on government or political issues.
*TEN*
Always maintain call credit on your phone and always ensure you have power on it or buy power bank. You may need to make contact incase of ATTACK.
*ELEVEN*
If under attack, do not make voice calls, because sound travels faster and quietly at night, just ring the number repeatedly if the person pick, don't speak. Just send text. When doing that do it under cover so that your phone will not reflect any ray of light.
*TWELVE*
Don't buy group dress from anyone for now. No matter how close they are to you , don't buy.
*THIRTEEN*
Don't attend parties that you are not closely concerned.
*FOURTEEN*
If at all, you come under attack, remember there are only 2 rules to guide you.
*1) DO NOT PANIC*
*2) NOT TO FORGET RULE 1*
If you panic, you will attract attention of the attackers to yourselves, and you will not remember exactly what you need to do to keep you safe.
*FIFTEEN*
This is not the time to do fashion or to showcase your new clothing and shoes. Anytime you go out wear dress and especially shoes that will allow you to run incase you need to get out of troubled area fast. Wear cheap shoes that you can throw away if it impedes your movement. Your dress should not hinder your ability to run.
*SIXTEEN*
Prepare for any eventuality. Do not say it can't happen. Be Prepared. Trouble can happen anywhere any time. Remember your life is very important,not your phone or your property.
*SEVENTEEN*
If you have to run, throw away anything in your hand. Save yourself first. Don't wait to pick anything that drop from your hands. Run as fast as you can.
*EIGHTEEN*
If there is shooting, try the rules. Do not panic. The fact that you heard the gunshot means that you are not hit. If you are hit, you will not hear the SOUND.
#. Reduce your height first by bending down as close to the ground as possible.
#. Then try and identify the direction of the shots first then draw a cross putting the direction of the shot at north or south, run East or WEST.
#. Never run straight line in opposite direction because bullets travel at straight line and never run toward the point of the gunshot.
#. As you are moving out of the troubled area, identify hard objects or structures that you can use as protection where you can hide.
#. If you notice the sound is coming closer, shift your location a little as you continue to run. If not, find a safe place and hide in sitting position to avoid stray bullets from hitting you.
*NINETEEN*
At this moment, avoid arguments with People. When you notice people are showing anger, don't wait to settle them, move out of the place as quickly and quietly as you can. Just yesterday in Ado Ekiti someone was trying to settle an argument, he was stabbed and he died on the spot. Don't go to places of incidents to go and look what's happening.
*TWENTY*
At this moment, stay as close as possible to your home. Know the shortest possible routes to your home incase you need to get home quickly.
Always keep some change at hand. Not much, maybe 2k or less incase you need to board a public transport out of any trouble area.
*OPEN YOUR EYES AND BE ALERT.*
_Suspect everything including people and places._...
Please๐Ÿ™๐ŸพAdhere Strictly to the above write-ups, we'll not fall victim.

A famous doctor explained lipid profile in a very good way and shared a beautiful story explaining it in a unique way.

Imagine that our body is a small town.
The biggest troublemaker in this town is - *Cholesterol.*
He also has some companions.

His main partner in crime is - *Triglyceride.*

Their job is to roam in the streets, create chaos and block the roads.

The *heart* is the city center of this town.
All the roads lead to the heart.
When these troublemakers start increasing, you can imagine what happens.

They try to obstruct the work of the heart.
But our body-town also has a police force deployed - *HDL* (High Density Lipoprotein - Good policeman)

The good policeman catches these troublemakers and puts them in jail *(liver)*.
Then the liver removes them from the body - through our drainage system.

But
there is also a bad cop - *LDL* who is hungry for power.

LDL takes these miscreants out of jail and lets them back on the streets.

When the good cop *HDL* goes down, the whole town goes haywire.

Who would want to live in such a town?

Do you want to reduce these miscreants and increase the number of good policemen?

Start *Walking*!

With every step *HDL* will increase, and miscreants like *Cholesterol, Triglyceride* and *LDL* will decrease.

Your body (town) will come alive again.

Your heart โ€“ the city center โ€“ will be protected from the blockage *(heart block)* of miscreants.

And when the heart is healthy, you will also be healthy.

So whenever you get a chance โ€“ start walking!

*Stay healthy...*
and *Wishing you good health*
*This article tells you the best way to increase HDL (good cholesterol) and reduce LDL (bad cholesterol)
i.e. walking.*
Every step increases HDL. So โ€“ *Come on, move on and keep moving.*

*Happy Senior Citizens Week*

GeneXpert Test for Tuberculosis (TB)
________________________________________
1. Objective:
The objective of the GeneXpert test was to detect the presence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) DNA and rifampicin resistance in clinical samples (e.g., sputum), using automated real-time PCR.
________________________________________
2. Principle:
The GeneXpert test was based on nucleic acid amplification (real-time PCR). The system amplified MTB DNA and simultaneously detected mutations in the rpoB gene region associated with rifampicin resistance. The process was fully automated within a closed cartridge to reduce contamination.
________________________________________
3. Materials:
โ€ข GeneXpert machine
โ€ข GeneXpert MTB/RIF cartridge
โ€ข Sample reagent (buffer)
โ€ข Sputum sample (or other clinical specimen)
โ€ข Vortex mixer
โ€ข PPE (gloves, lab coat, mask)
________________________________________
4. Procedure:
1. A fresh sputum sample was collected in a sterile container.
2. Sample reagent was added in a 2:1 ratio to the sputum and shaken for 10โ€“15 minutes.
3. The treated sample was transferred into the GeneXpert cartridge.
4. The cartridge was loaded into the GeneXpert machine.
5. The machine automatically performed DNA extraction, amplification, and detection.
6. Results were displayed on the screen within ~2 hours.
________________________________________
5. Result:
โ€ข MTB Detected / Rifampicin Resistance Detected
โ€ข MTB Detected / Rifampicin Resistance Not Detected
โ€ข MTB Not Detected
โ€ข Invalid / Error / No Result (if issues occurred)
________________________________________
6. Uses:
โ€ข It was used for rapid diagnosis of pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB.
โ€ข It detected rifampicin resistance, indicating possible multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB).
โ€ข It guided early treatment decisions in suspected TB patients.

โœ‚๏ธ Scientists just cut HIV out of immune cells using CRISPR!

And the cells stayed HIV-free even after re-exposure. A cure could finally be within reach.

In a groundbreaking advance, scientists have successfully used CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to eliminate HIV-1 DNA from the genomes of human immune cells. Unlike existing treatments that suppress the virus, this method completely removes the genetic blueprint of HIV from infected T-cells.

In lab tests using cells from real patients, not only was the virus removed, but the edited cells also resisted reinfectionโ€”an unprecedented level of viral control.

The study marks a crucial step toward a potential cure for HIV. Current antiretroviral therapies require lifelong adherence and only manage the infection; stopping treatment typically allows the virus to return. By contrast, the CRISPR technique offers a permanent solution by targeting and excising the virus at the genetic level, with no observed toxicity. This breakthrough may pave the way for clinical treatments that fully eradicate HIV reservoirs in the bodyโ€”long considered one of the biggest challenges in the global fight against the disease.

*BE CAREFUL WHEN TAKING PHOTOS OF NEWBORNS!!*

This morning, I was called to the home of one Alhaji to examine a baby girl who was born three weeks ago.

When I arrived at the house:

They complained to me that the baby girl seems to have trouble seeing. Since the day of her naming ceremony up to the time I'm sharing this message, her parents have noticed that she doesn't respond to light or to hand movements near her eyes or face.

Because of this, I suggested they consult a pediatrician at Nassarawa Hospital. I called a pediatrician and explained the situation, but he said this case should rather be seen by an eye specialist.

The surprising part that made me share this with you is what the eye specialist said when I called him. He asked, "Did they have a naming ceremony at home?" I said, "Yes, they did, and it was well attended."

Then he said that it's now being observed that many babies who had home naming ceremonies, where the husbandโ€™s and wifeโ€™s relatives took pictures of the newborns with their phones, end up with visual problems. The flash from phone cameras, especially during the early days or first one or two months of life, can damage the retinaโ€”the part of the eye that sends visual information to the brain.

This happens because relatives often insist that the baby open their eyes for a photo, and at that moment, the flash from the phoneโ€™s camera can harm the baby's retina.

Taking photos of a baby during the naming ceremony can potentially cause permanent blindness.

Please, letโ€™s be careful. And letโ€™s educate parents and relatives about the dangers of insisting that a newborn open their eyes for photos.

Please share this message so others can benefit.

*_THE REASONS BEHIND BACTERIA'S RESISTIVITY TO ANTIBIOTICS_*

Antibiotics save lives but their use can contribute to the development of resistant germs. Antibiotic resistance is accelerated when the presence of antibiotics pressure bacteria and fungi to adapt.

Antibiotics and antifungals kill some germs that cause infections, but they also kill helpful germs that protect our body from infection. The antibiotic-resistant germs survive and multiply. These surviving germs have resistance traits in their DNA that can spread to other germs.

Spread of Germs & Resistance Mechanisms
To survive, germs develop defense strategies against antibiotics called resistance mechanisms. DNA tells the germ how to make specific proteins, which determine the germโ€™s resistance mechanisms. Bacteria and fungi can carry genes for many types of resistance.

When already hard-to-treat germs have the right combination of resistance mechanisms, it can make all antibiotics ineffective, resulting in untreatable infections. Alarmingly, antibiotic-resistant germs can share their resistance mechanisms with other germs that have not been exposed to antibiotics.
Few examples of defense strategies used to resist the effects of antibiotics.

1 _Restrict access of the antibiotic - Germs restrict access by changing the entryways or limiting the number of entryways._

Example: Gram-negative bacteria have an outer layer (membrane) that protects them from their environment. These bacteria can use this membrane to selectively keep antibiotic drugs from entering.

2 _Get rid of the antibiotic - Germs get rid of antibiotics using pumps in their cell walls to remove antibiotic drugs that enter the cell._

Example: Some Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria can produce pumps to get rid of several different important antibiotic drugs, including fluoroquinolones, beta-lactams, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim.

3 _Change or destroy the antibiotic - Germs change or destroy the antibiotics with enzymes, proteins that break down the drug._

Example: Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria produce enzymes called carbapenemases, which break down carbapenem drugs and most other beta-lactam drugs.

4 _Bypass the effects of the antibiotic - Germs develop new cell processes that avoid using the antibioticโ€™s target._

Example: Some Staphylococcus aureus bacteria can bypass the drug effects of trimethoprim

5 _Change the targets for the antibiotic - Many antibiotic drugs are designed to single out and destroy specific parts (or targets) of a bacterium. Germs change the antibioticโ€™s target so the drug can no longer fit and do its job._

Example: Escherichia coli bacteria with the mcr-1 gene can add a compound to the outside of the cell wall so that the drug colistin cannot latch onto it.

6 _Bypass the effects of the antibiotic - Germs develop new cell processes that avoid using the antibioticโ€™s target._

Example: Some Staphylococcus aureus bacteria can bypass the drug effects of trimethoprim.

15 FOOLISH HABITS OF A BABY WIFE
Quitraxc Levtylin
1. GOING TO SLEEP IN KIDS' OR SPARE BEDROOM OR SITTING ROOM WHEN THEY HAVE A MISUNDERSTANDING :

This is a sign of avoidance and unwillingness to resolve conflicts. A mature partner would stay and work through the issue, rather than running away from it. It's being childish.

2. TELLING HER HUSBAND AS NOT MAN ENOUGH:

This is a form of emotional abuse and undermines the partner's self-esteem. A mature partner would communicate constructively about issues without personal attacks. Very few men can survive this injury.

3. "THERE ARE MANY MEN OUT THERE WHO CAN MARRY ME WHEN I LEAVE THIS MARRIAGE":

This is a threat and a form of emotional blackmail. A mature partner would address problems in the relationship directly and work towards a solution.

4. BEING QUICK TO GET angryY ABOUT EVERYTHING:

Excessive anger and overreaction to minor issues is a sign of immaturity. A mature partner would respond with more patience and understanding.

5. CAN'T JUST FORGIVE, KEEPS HURTS IN HIS OR HER HEART:

Holding onto grudges and resentment is a barrier to healthy conflict resolution. A mature partner would be able to forgive and move forward.

6. ALWAYS BEING RIGHT , UNABLE TO ADMIT BEING WRONG :

Lack of humility and unwillingness to compromise is a sign of immaturity. A mature partner would be open to different perspectives and willing to acknowledge their own mistakes.

7. LOVING PARENTS AND SIBLINGS MORE THAN SPOUSE:

This indicates a lack of emotional investment in the marriage and a failure to prioritize the spousal relationship.

8. FEELING ENTITLED TO EVERYTHING:

A sense of entitlement and unrealistic expectations is a sign of immaturity. A mature partner would have a more balanced view of the give and take in a relationship.

9. FIGHTING SPOUSE'S FAMILY DIRTY:

Engaging in petty conflicts and disrespecting the spouse's family is a sign of immaturity. A mature partner would strive to maintain positive relationships with in-laws.

These are manipulative and abusive tactics that have no place in a healthy, mature relationship.

11. THINKING THEY ARE TOO IMPORTANT IN THE LIFE OF THEIR SPOUSES:

This indicates a lack of understanding of the importance of mutual respect and independence in a marriage.

12. BRAGGING ABOUT WHAT SHE IS DOING TO SUPPORT THE HUSBAND:

This suggests a need for external validation and a lack of genuine concern for the partner's well-being.

13. GETTING MUTE ON THE HUSBAND JUST BECAUSE HIM LOOKED AT ANOTHER WOMAN AT THE MALL

If she caught her husband looking at a woman and appreciating her looks when they were together at a shopping mall, she stops talking to her husband for months, stops cooking his favorite meal and can't even sleep on the same bed with him.

14. DARING HER HUSBAND TO GET ANOTHER WOMAN AS IF SHE DOESN'T CARE.

Daring a man to get another woman is not only childish but dangerous, because not every husband is a believer.

15. RESENTING KIDS BECAUSE HUBBY HID THEM FROM HER

When she discovers that her husband hid the fact that he had a child/children before meeting her, she immediately resents those kPLAY
MARRIAGE IS NOT CHILD'S PLAY.

Hospitals are supposed to heal, right?

But resistant bacteria love hanging out there, waiting to pounce on anyone with a weak immune system.

AMR is like that annoying neighbor who refuses to move out and keeps stealing your Wi-Fi.

If we donโ€™t act now, itโ€™ll take over our lives, and even simple infections could spell big trouble.

A minor infection post-surgery could turn into a life-threatening crisis.

AMR isnโ€™t just ruining your "quick recovery" plansโ€”itโ€™s a global crisis.

๐Ÿ’Š Medicines fail. Routine infections like UTIs or strep throat become untreatable.

WHAT CAN YOU DO? abi you feel it doesn't concern you ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Youโ€™re not helpless in this battle! Together we are ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Choose life and stop I know I know...

1๏ธโƒฃ Stop being a "Doctor YouTube." Donโ€™t self-medicate. If itโ€™s not prescribed, donโ€™t take it!

2๏ธโƒฃ Finish your meds. Even if you feel better halfway through, complete the course. No half-measures here!

3๏ธโƒฃ Stay clean. Wash your hands like you just ate oily jollof rice with them. Seriously.

4๏ธโƒฃ Spread the word, not the germs. Educate your friends and family about AMR.

๐Ÿ“ŒWhat is Lassa Fever?๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ
Lassa fever is an acute viral haemorrhagic illness caused by the Lassa virus, a member of the Arenavirus family. Humans usually contract the Lassa virus through exposure to food or household items contaminated with the urine or f***s of infected *Mastomys* rats. This disease is endemic in parts of West Africa due to its presence in rodent populations.

๐Ÿ“ŒHow Lassa Fever Spreads
-Primary Transmission: Contact with contaminated food or surfaces exposed to infected rodents.

-Secondary Transmission: Person-to-person infections and laboratory transmission, particularly in healthcare settings without adequate infection prevention measures.

๐Ÿ“ŒSymptoms and Severity
-About 80% of infected people show no symptoms.

-However, 1 in 5 infections can result in severe disease, affecting major organs such as the liver, spleen, and kidneys.
-Incubation Period*: 2โ€“21 days.

-Symptoms: When present, symptoms include fever, weakness, headache, sore throat, muscle pain, chest pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Severe cases may involve bleeding and organ damage.

๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธWhy it Peaks in the Dry Season
Lassa fever cases typically peak during the dry season (November to April). This period sees increased human interaction with Mastomys natalensis rats, the primary reservoir of the virus according to NCDC

๐Ÿ“ŒCurrent Situation in Oyo State
While Oyo State is not among the top three states most affected by Lassa fever (Ondo, Edo, and Bauchi), it does record cases. The proximity of Oyo to these regions and frequent interstate interactions make vigilance essential.

When to Suspect Lassa Fever: Persistent fever (โ‰ฅ38ยฐC) not responding to antimalarials or antibiotics within 48โ€“72 hours.
- Outbreak scenarios with symptoms matching Lassa fever.

Early detection is critical, as no vaccine currently exists for Lassa fever.
