Dokuz vakanın doğrulanmasının ardından Kenya'da Ebola kontrol altına alındı ​​mı?

Kenya is grappling with its first ever outbreak of Ebola, a disease which neighbouring countries, such as Uganda and Democratic Republic of Congo, are used to dealing with.

Nine cases have now been confirmed including its first patient, who travelled from DR Congo and died two weeks ago.

Four relatives of the first victim, three health workers and a hospital cleaner have now tested positive, meaning they are all linked to him.

But concerns are rising that the virus could start spreading further, even as the government has sought to assure citizens.

The US has warned it citizens against travelling to Kenya, while neighbouring countries such as Uganda, Ethiopia and Somalia are also on alert.

More than 4,000 people have died since Ebola was confirmed in DR Congo in May, making it the second most deadly outbreak of the disease.
