Sierra Leone has recorded two new cases of the Ebola Virus Disease. Infected patients include a fisherman who caught it from his girlfriend and one of his family member. This sad news is coming few weeks after the country recorded no new cases.
The fatal illness has killed more than11,000 people in West Africa, about a third of them in Sierra
Leone.
Sidi Yahya Tunis, a spokesman for the National Ebola Response Centre (NERC) said, “This is worrisome because we had already closed all Ebola quarantine structures in Freetown since we had gone for weeks without a case.”
