Virus in Guinea capital Conakry not Ebola | |
(35 minutes later) | |
Tests on suspected cases of deadly Ebola virus in Guinea's capital Conakry are negative, health officials say. | |
On Sunday, UN officials said that the virus had spread to the capital, a port city of up to two million, from remote forests in the south, where some 59 people have died. | |
But a World Health Organization spokesman told the BBC the Conakry tests had come back negative. | |
Ebola is spread by close contact and kills between 25% and 90% of victims. |
