NAIROBI,Kenya Nov 1 – The Ministry of Health has protested measures taken by Saudi Arabia over the Ebola situation in Kenya, describing them as excessive and unsupported by the country’s current epidemiological situation.
In a statement issued on Saturday, October 31, Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale said Kenya had contained the outbreak, with no evidence of community transmission and no new infections reported since October 19.
Duale said the initial case was imported and that health authorities had successfully traced all 135 people who came into contact with the patient, representing 100 per cent of the identified contacts.
