EBOLA: Liberian minister in self-isolation after her driver dies of Ebola


Liberia's transport minister said she was voluntarily isolating herself inside her home after her driver died of Ebola. Angela Bush, Liberia's transport minister, said her last contact with her driver, who died over the weekend of the disease, was on October 3. She did not know he was sick with Ebola until after his death, she said.

She is not showing any symptoms of the disease, but Liberia's government has asked people to keep themselves isolated for 21 days if they think they have been exposed. The country's chief medical officer put herself under quarantine about two weeks ago, after her office assistant died of Ebola. (AP)
