Ebola Virus Disease has returned to Liberia. World Health Organisation (WHO) has confirmed a new case of the deadly disease in the country.
Authorities at a hospital in Monrovia, Liberia have confirmed that the new Ebola case, a 30-year-old woman, has died within the last 24 hours.
The head of Liberia's Ebola response team Tolbert Nyenswah said the woman died on arrival at the Redemption Hospital in the densely-populated New Kru Town suburb.
A swab confirmed she died from Ebola. He said they are investigating the source because this is the first case since Liberia was declared Ebola free for the third time in January.
