The Minister also disclosed that Nigeria has set up three laboratories across the country to test suspected patients for the disease.
According to him, the designated laboratories have been set up in Lagos, Abuja, and Irrua in Edo state to handle such tests.
He said the reagents were acquired about eight days ago.
