Kenya confirms a second Ebola case, a relative of the first victim

Kenya confirmed a second Ebola case, a family member of the first patient (Reuters, BBC). The BBC said the first case was a man who died last week after travelling to Kenya from the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Ebola spreads through contact with the body fluids of the sick, so cases in families and carers are watched closely.

No direct effect on Pakistan; travellers to East Africa should follow health advisories.

The number of contacts being traced is the figure to watch; neither report gave one.
