Kenya confirmed its first-ever imported case and death from the Bundibugyo Ebola virus in a Kenyan citizen who traveled from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) via Uganda. Hospitalization & Death: Taken by a relative to Nairobi Hospital, placed in high-containment isolation with symptoms including fever, chills, and bleeding under the skin. He tested positive and passed away late on Monday, October 5, Ten people linked to Kenya's first-ever Ebola case quarantined as screening concerns grow Ten people who came into contact with a man who died of Ebola in Kenya have been quarantined, health officials in the East African nation say. They are also trying to trace 57 other contacts of the Kenyan patient after he travelled from the Democratic Republic of Congo, dying in hospital in Nairobi on Monday. This is the East African nation's first-ever Ebola case and there is now growing concern about the country's screening measures. The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention chief has told the BBC that despite being sick for a month, the patient passed through multiple cities in DR Congo, driving to Uganda and eventually flying to Kenya without his sickness being detected. "We know that he left Buta, a city in [northern] DR Congo, to drive to Kisangani. And from Kisangani, he took a flight to Beni. From Beni, he drove to Uganda. And from Uganda, he took a flight to Nairobi," Jean Kaseya told the BBC's Focus on Africa programme.

The man had been residing in Congo for the past seven years and fell ill about a month ago. He was treated at various hospitals before traveling by road to Kampala, Uganda, where he boarded a flight to the Kenyan capital, arriving on Saturday afternoon, Health Minister Aden Duale said. Health authorities in Kenya have placed the country’s border points on high alert and are monitoring for possible additional cases. #somalikenyan🇸🇴🇰🇪🔥👸 #kenyantiktok🇰🇪 #nairobi #muqdisho #somalitiktok @Omar Artan 🇸🇴 @Zuhuur Puntlander
