Kenya Confirms Third Ebola Case as Contact Tracing Expands

Kenya has confirmed a third case of Ebola, involving a relative of a man who died earlier this month after traveling from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The health ministry said the new patient, a 65-year-old woman, tested positive while in quarantine, where she had been since 5 October. The second patient, a 39-year-old man from the same family, is reported to be in a stable condition. Health officials say there is no evidence of community transmission, as both individuals were already under quarantine when their cases were identified. However, three contacts have yet to be traced, and contact tracing efforts are continuing. France 24 English reports on the latest developments as Kenyan authorities work to contain the outbreak and monitor those who may have been exposed.
