A patient with the rare, but highly infectious Marburg virus disease has died in Guinea, according to a World Health Organization statement on Monday. It's the first case of the Ebola-like virus in West Africa.
Samples of the virus, which causes hemorrhagic fever, were taken from the patient in Gueckedou. The statement added that the detection comes less than two months after Guinea declared an end to its most recent Ebola outbreak. "Gueckedou, where Marburg has been confirmed, is also the same region where cases of the 2021 Ebola outbreak in Guinea as well as the 2014--2016 West Africa outbreak were initially detected," according to the WHO statement.
