Is Ebola under control in Kenya after nine cases confirmed?
As fears grow that the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo could spread further, Kenya, which announced its first Ebola case three weeks ago and has since had eight more cases, is hoping for the opposite. With the first 20 of the people who came into contact with the first Ebola patient being released, the government has described it as a "milestone worth celebrating". The government expects the outbreak to be declared over in less than two months, if efforts to contain the spread holds. But that is assuming there are no more cases, including from the 98 people still in quarantine and due to be freed next week.
