Twelve persons were quarantined in the state after the first case of suspected monkeypox infection was reported a few days ago. The virus later spread to the neighbouring state of Rivers.
The Commissioner for Information in Bayelsa, Daniel Iworiso-Markson, in a statement issued on Sunday, said that the infected persons who were quarantined at the Niger Delta University Teaching Hospital, NDUTH, Okolobiri, were showing signs of recovery.
Mr. Iworiso-Markson didn’t provide details on the recovery, but said that “two of the index cases and the medical doctor affected by the disease have since fully recovered and discharged.”
