Nigeria’s Lassa fever toll has soared with the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) reporting 822 confirmed cases and 155 deaths, signaling a deepening national health crisis. NCDC, on Tuesday, confirmed 11 more cases of Lassa fever in Week 29 (July 14–20, 2025), all reported in Ondo and Edo states.
With this most recent spike, the country has 822 confirmed cases and a sobering total of 155 deaths in 2025.
At every level of government and healthcare delivery, the announcement highlights a worsening situation that necessitates immediate, coordinated interventions.
NCDC’s Situation Report reveals a Case Fatality Rate (CFR) of 18.9 percent – an increase from the 17.1 percent recorded at the same point in 2024.
This uptick is especially troubling given that the number of new confirmed infections remained steady compared with Epidemiological Week 28, suggesting that the deadliness of Lassa fever may be intensifying rather than the incidence alone driving mortality.
A staggering 89 percent of all confirmed Lassa fever cases in 2025 have been concentrated in five states: Ondo (32 percent), Bauchi (23 percent), Edo (17 percent), Taraba (14 percent) and Ebonyi (3 percent).
The remaining 11% are spread out among 16 different states. In sum, 21 states have now reported at least one confirmed case across 105 local government districts, demonstrating a geographic spread that refuses to be contained.

NCDC reports indicate that the disease is primarily affecting young adults. The predominant age group affected by the outbreak is 21 to 30 years old, with the overall age range spanning 1 to 96 years.
The median age is 30 years, and the male-tofemale ratio for confirmed cases stands at 1:0.8.
These findings indicate to a group that is vital to the country’s workforce and economic future – showing the broader societal consequences of the pandemic.
Even though there have been fewer suspected and confirmed cases this year than during the same time in 2024, and no new healthcare workers have been infected, the consistently high death rate serves as a clear reminder that containment and case management efforts need to be strengthened.
The National Lassa Fever Multi-Partner, Multi-Sectoral Technical Working Group (TWG) continues to lead response efforts, improve laboratory capabilities, bolster surveillance, and coordinate risk communication.
Yet, the tenfold clustering of cases in a handful of states calls for heightened community engagement, environmental sanitation drives and rapid case-finding to stem the disease’s destructive march.
