US to screen travelers coming from Mali
Print Edition
TRAVELERS from Mali, starting yesterday, will be subject to the same screening and monitoring that was ordered for people arriving from three other Ebola-affected countries, US health officials said.
Mali is not suffering a widespread Ebola outbreak.
But federal officials are growing increasingly alarmed about a new cluster of seven illnesses in Mali that have left public health workers scrambling to track and monitor at least 450 other people who may have had contact with the seven people and may be at risk.
“At this point we can’t be confident that every exposed person has been identified, or that every identified person is being monitored daily,” said Dr Tom Frieden, director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
They will be monitored to see if they develop symptoms.
