尼日利亚气象局(NiMet)警告说,由于干燥的灰尘天气,北部11个州——索科托、赞法拉、凯比、卡齐纳、卡诺、吉加瓦、阿达马瓦、贡贝、包奇、约贝和博尔诺——脑脊髓膜炎的风险增加。 The Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) has warned of a heightened risk of cerebrospinal meningitis in 11 northern states—Sokoto, Zamfara, Kebbi, Katsina, Kano, Jigawa, Adamawa, Gombe, Bauchi, Yobe, and Borno—due to dry, dusty weather.
