The president of Sierra Leone, Ernest Bai Koroma, has said another woman has tested positive for Ebola in a village already under quarantine.
Koroma said the new case, confirmed on Saturday, had been in contact with a 67-year-old woman who died a week ago.
He called it a reminder that Ebola has not been eradicated and emergency precautionary measures must continue to be in place.
Health officials say an experimental vaccine, administered Friday in the village by the WHO, was progressing well.■
