Yet another Ebola death. Nigerian Ebola suspect dies in Abu Dhabi, AP reports.
A Nigerian woman who arrived in Abu Dhabi on a transit flight and who may have been infected with the Ebola virus has died, health officials in the United Arab Emirates said.
A statement carried by the state news agency WAM said the 35-year-old was travelling from Nigeria to India for treatment of advanced metastatic cancer.
Her health deteriorated while in transit at Abu Dhabi’s main airport and, as medics were trying to resuscitate her, they found signs that suggested a possible Ebola virus infection.
The woman’s husband and the five medics who treated her are being isolated pending test results.
