DAKAR, Senegal — The last Ebola patient being treated in Mali has survived the disease and been released, the Health Ministry said Friday, leaving no known cases in the West African country.
Mali had recorded eight cases of Ebola, all of them linked to people who crossed from neighboring Guinea.
The country now has no confirmed or suspected cases, according to the ministry, but authorities are still monitoring 26 people who had contact with the sick. A person infected with Ebola can take up to 21 days to show symptoms.
