Kenya’s Ministry of Health reports that five men with Bundibugyo Ebola have recovered and are discharged from hospital after testing negative and remaining symptom-free. Two were treated at Kenyatta National Hospital and three at Nairobi Hospital, and officials say the patients leave only after meeting strict public health criteria.
Officials also report that 46 people who were monitored as contacts of confirmed cases have completed their observation period without developing symptoms and are allowed to return to their families. Other outlets frame the update around the remaining hospital cases, noting that only two patients stay under supportive care. Overall coverage is consistent on the number released and the status of those still hospitalized, with differences focused on whether monitoring/contacts or the remaining inpatient group leads the account.
