 FIRST IMPORTED EBOLA CASE: NIGERIA EVACUATES INDEX CASE TO SWITZERLAND AS CONTAINMENT MEASURES CONTINUE The Nigeria’s confirmed Ebola index case has been medically evacuated from Abuja to Switzerland, following approval by the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Professor Muhammad Ali Pate. The forty-two-year-old patient, whose case marked Nigeria’s first imported Ebola virus disease case, was transferred alongside her spouse, who has remained asymptomatic. In a statement posted on his X handle, Professor Pate said the patient was clinically much improved, stable, conscious and able to communicate, with laboratory test results approaching baseline levels.

A 6-YEAR-OLD CHILD PLUMMETED 81 FEET FROM A NASHVILLE APARTMENT BUILDING.(PHOTO).



    A 6-year-old child plummeted 81 feet from a Nashville apartment building.


A Nashville mother waited to look down until she exhausted all other alternatives. When she did peer over the edge of her 8th floor balcony, her life was irrevocably changed in that instant.


6-year-old, Kingston McWilliams, was the victim. His mother informed authorities that she had only briefly left his side to go into another room in the apartment where the two lived at 200 East Webster.


Upon quickly returning to the living room, she immediately noticed Kingston was not in the room. She began an extensive search of the apartment and hallway before stepping onto her balcony and looking over the  railing  to see her son's lifeless body 81 feet below.


Kingston was rushed to Vanderbilt Children's Hospital, where he passed away a short time after arriving. 


Kingston's mother said that Kingston had enjoyed the balcony, and she frequently scolded him for unsafe behavior while out on it. 


Police say that preliminary findings point to the incident simply being just a tragic accident.  However, detectives with Youth Services are launching their own investigation.


Our thoughts are with Kingston's mother and entire family as they attempt to navigate this heartbreaking loss.
