    Bird Flu: Expert warns against drinking raw eggs

    Posted By: Agency reporteron: January 18, 2016In:

    A physician, Dr Emmanuel Onyeka, has advised Nigerians against the habit of drinking raw eggs to prevent easy transfer of the bird flu virus to humans.
    ...
    ?Everybody should disinfect eggs bought in the market, even before cooking or frying them, to meet eating condition.

    ?Those in the habit of breaking and drinking raw eggs, for whatever reasons, are taking a very big risk of contracting bird flu,?? the medical expert warned.

    Onyeka said that though there were few known cases of humans contracting the disease in the country; ?nevertheless, everybody should play his or her part so that the disease does not take another dimension,?? he said.

    "Safety and security don't just happen, they are the result of collective consensus and public investment. We owe our children, the most vulnerable citizens in our society, a life free of violence and fear."
    -Nelson Mandela
