Guinea’s government announced on Monday that samples taken from three suspected cases of Ebola which led to two deaths in Conakry had tested negative.
“The Pasteur Institute in Dakar worked urgently all last night on samples taken from suspected cases here in Conakry which were all negative. So for now, there’s no Ebola in Conakry, but haemorrhagic fever whose nature remains to be determined,” said Sakoba Keita, the health ministry’s chief disease prevention officer.
