Nigerian physician
Ameyo Stella Adadevoh (27 October &#;– 19 August ) was a Nigerianphysician.
She is credited with having curbed a wider spread of the Western African Ebola virus epidemic in Nigeria by placing the patient zero, Patrick Sawyer, in quarantine despite pressure from the Liberian government.[1][2][3] When threatened by Liberian officials who wanted the patient to be discharged to attend a conference, she resisted the pressure and said, "for the greater public good" she would not release him.[4] She is known for preventing the Nigerian index case from leaving the hospital at the time of diagnosis, thereby playing a key role in curbing the spread of the virus in Nigeria.[5] On 4 August , it was confirmed that she had tested positive for Ebola virus disease and was being treated.[6] Adadevoh died in the afternoon of 19 August [7][1]
