Senegal now officially free of disease
SENEGAL’S Ebola outbreak is officially over but the country remains vulnerable to further cases of the deadly disease being imported, the World Health Organization said yesterday.
Twice the maximum incubation period of 21 days has passed since a Guinean man who traveled to Dakar was confirmed with the disease, it said in a statement praising Senegalese authorities for their “diligence.” The man has recovered and his 74 known contacts have not caught the disease.
“While the outbreak is now officially over, Senegal’s geographical position makes the country vulnerable to additional imported cases of Ebola virus disease.
“It continues to remain vigilant for any suspected cases by strict compliance with WHO guidelines,” the UN agency said.
