Kenya reports third Ebola case, a close relative of first two patients

Kenyan health authorities confirmed their third case of Ebola on Friday, involving a 65-year-old woman who is a close relative of the initial patients. The woman, who has been in quarantine since October 6, is currently receiving supportive care as she shows early signs of recovery. These cases, linked to the ongoing outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, have prompted concerns regarding national border and airport screening procedures. Officials are actively monitoring 127 identified contacts to prevent further community spread.
