2015-03-26 |
[AA.TR] Liberian authorities on Wednesday reported two new Ebola infections, bringing the total number of new infections in the West African country to three and putting its goal of being declared Ebola-free further out of reach. Sompson Sieh, the country's deputy Ebola incident manager, said one of the two cases involved an 18-year-old girl who was taking care of her 44-year-old mother who recently tested positive for the virus. The mother used to sell food at a local community school before being taken to hospital on Friday after showing signs of the virus and later testing positive. Liberian health workers are currently monitoring more than 80 people from the infected woman's community. |
