CONAKRY, April 2 (Reuters) - Medics in Guinea were on Friday racing to track down suspected carriers of the Ebola virus, after they fled a southeastern town where the country s first case in nearly a month was detected the previous day.
The case followed a cluster of suspicious deaths in Soulouta, the West African country s World Health Organization (WHO) representative, Georges Alfred Ki-Zerbo, said. This illustrates the need for enhanced monitoring in the (local) .region, but also in other regions .to contain this new cluster as soon as possible, he told Reuters.
