Contact tracing intensifies in Liberia with 3rd Ebola case

Authorities say that contact tracing has intensified in the town where a 17-year-old died from Ebola on Sunday, as a third person has been found to have the deadly virus.
Deputy Health Minister and head of the Ebola response Tolbert Nyenswah told the Associated Press today the two new cases confirmed, aged 24 and 27, have been admitted to a treatment center near Monrovia the capital.
Nyenswah said the two men were "very stable" and walked to the ambulance that evacuated them from Nedowein, where the first Ebola was found on the teen's corpse about seven weeks after Liberia was declared Ebola-free.

He said about 14 health workers who had contact with the teenager are under self-observation at a health post, and there were no other probable or suspected cases.
