Another women in Liberia has died of Ebola in a hospital in Monrovia shortly after being admitted. This has become the sixth confirmed case of the virus since it resurfaced last month after a seven-week lull, a senior medical official said on Tuesday. The victim from Montserrado County, which contains Monrovia, is thought to be linked to the other five cases from neighboring Margibi County, where the disease reemerged.
Her detection raised fears that the infection may be spreading in a new area of the country.
“There is one new case. This time, the response area is Montserrado county. The person died in Monrovia,” Liberia’s Chief Medical Officer Dr. Francis Ketteh.
