This was Dr. Bob Cannon taking an eye scraping from this Lassa fever patient to be tested in the Segbwema, Sierra Leone clinic. When Mastomys rodents shed the virus in urine and droppings, it may then be transmitted through direct contact with these materials, through touching objects, or eating food contaminated with these materials, or through cuts or sores. This image was created in 1977 and provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. [0004-0702-2123-1360] by 0004
