No fresh Ebola cases recorded yet but Kenya faces 21-day test Health Just now

By GhanaSummary NewsroomKenya

Kenya has detected no secondary Ebola infections more than a week after an imported case died, but health experts say the country must complete a 21-day monitoring period before transmission can be ruled out.

Dr Kalebi said the first contacts were nine to 10 days past exposure, while health workers last exposed on October 5 were on day eight, against a historical average incubation period of 6.

On October 12, Kenya declared Ebola a formidable epidemic disease and gazetted the Public Health Ebola Rules 2026.
