Deadly Ebola outbreak in Congo (Coming here soon ?)
Deadly Ebola outbreak in Congo
(Coming soon to a city near you? Thanks to legal and illegal immigration and tourist.)
Ebola's back. The deadly hemorrhagic fever has killed at least three people in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the World Health Organization reports.
The New York Times says health officials are aware of 36 suspected infections -- 12 of which proved fatal -- in a region of the country near Angola. "Only three cases have been proved by laboratory tests to be caused by Ebola, and because other infectious diseases also affect the region, the true number of cases is not known," the paper says. "But in the meantime, health workers are keeping a close watch on 184 people who may have been infected."
BBC News says Angola responded to the news by closing part of its border with the Congo. "Speaking at a press conference on Sunday in Luanda, the Health minister, José Van-Dúnem, said the measure is intended to prevent the spread of the disease into the Angolan territory, through migratory movements and illegal prospecting of diamonds," Angola Press reports on its website.
