PARIS, France – A UN employee flown to France for treatment after contracting Ebola in Sierra Leone has been cured and has left the country, the health ministry said.
The UNICEF official, evacuated to France on November 1 and treated in a hospital on the outskirts of Paris, “is now cured”, a ministry statement said.
The person, whose nationality and gender were not disclosed, “left hospital this morning and has left France,” it added.
The official is the second person to recover in France after a French nurse, who worked for Doctors Without Borders (MSF) in Liberia, was successfully treated at the same military hospital in September.
The epidemic, which has hit Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone hardest, has left more than 5,400 people dead and infected more than 15,000, according to the World Health Organization. – Rappler.com
