Kenya confirms second Ebola case – a relative of the first victim

The new patient, a 39-year-old man, is a close relative of the first case and was already in quarantine when he fell ill on Tuesday, Kenya's health ministry says.

Shortly after DR Congo declared an outbreak of Ebola in May, it was also reported in Uganda, where two people died.

Kenya has confirmed a second case of Ebola, 10 days after a businessman died of the virus after he had travelled to the East African nation from the Democratic Republic of Congo.
