''There appears to be an unrecognised Hepatitis B and C epidemic in Kwara State particularly in the rural areas surrounding Ilorin. In the last year, 3 prospective house helps from there have tested positive. These 3 young ladies are quite young with 2 of them not even sexually active yet. There is clearly another means of transmission spreading it. In fact, an 11 year old family member also tested positive recently.
This is particularly frightening because Hepatitis is every bit as dangerous as HIV if left untreated. It spreads quite rapidly and such an active, untreated carrier should not even prepare your food or take care of your children. I am not a medical professional so I'll let them explain the situation. Perhaps this is an issue for the Kwara State government as well.
Please test all domestic workers, drivers and gardeners and laundry men. They play with your kids, touch your things. …..''
