A first confirmed case of Ebola was diagnosed in Nigeria, the local government announced. The health minister updated that a woman who recently arrived in the capital Abuja on an international flight from Uganda was hospitalized at a private hospital, and after several days of treatment was confirmed as an Ebola patient. The government called on the public to be in 'maximum alert.' Yesterday, Kenya announced the identification of a ninth case on its territory, while the Democratic Republic of Congo is dealing with a particularly deadly outbreak: within a few months, 9,000 confirmed cases have been identified on its territory and 4,381 people have died.
