Two new cases of Ebola in Nigeria

Two new cases of Ebola have emerged in Nigeria and are outside the group of medics who treated a man who arrived in the country sick and later died, Health Minister Onyebuchi Chukwu said.

The two new cases are the spouses of medical workers who had direct contact with Liberian-American Patrick Sawyer. He flew into Nigeria last month with the virus and infected 11 others before he died in July.
