Three die as new Ebola outbreak declared in southern Guinea

 

Guinean health authorities have declared an outbreak of Ebola in a rural community in the south of the country, with at least seven people infected, three of whom died, the UN World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed on Sunday.  

 

This is the first time the disease has been reported in the country since the deadly 2014-2016 outbreak in West Africa which claimed over 11,000 lives.

I saw this earlier on apnews.com and was going to post it. 

 

I am glad you did so.

It seems that they've now realised that if men recover from Ebola they can carry the virus in their sperm for many years !! 

 

Infections have occurred that way.

Truly if the time wasn't cut short nobody would survive.
