Nurses are also susceptible to disease which transferred by the patients. One reported case which involve the staff nurse suffered Tibi which now jeopardized his life by her own career.

I urge the government and director of hospital take this matter seriously. The health of the nurses need to put at the top priority. Government need to identify the GH which having intense work of handling patients. The additional staff need to address urgently. This is to ensures that quality of health care that provided is at Par and error due to human can be mitigated.
