 Ebola Outbreak in Liberia Not Connected to Guinea
The epidemic Ebola raging in Guinea is apparently not connected to the suspected case in Liberia while dealing the first case and has been originated separately as declared on Thursday.
"We have a case in Tapeta where a hunter who has not had any contact with anyone coming from Guinea got sick," chief medical officer Bernice Dahn said.

"He was rushed to the hospital and died 30 minutes later. He never had any interaction with someone suspected to be a carrier of the virus and he has never gone to Guinea. This an a isolated case."
