Nigeria records fresh outbreak of Killer disease - SJ Syndrome

The ministry of health on Friday disclosed that there have been cases of a disease known as Stephen Johnson Syndrome (SJS) in the country but asked Nigerians not to panic.

The disease causes the skin of its victim to blister and peel off, leading to the forming of blisters inside the patient’s body. The victim also finds it hard to eat, swallow, or even urinate. It starts with fever before symptoms such as watery eyes, sore throat, and fatigue set in.
