DAKAR, Senegal (AP) A university student infected with Ebola evaded
health surveillance for weeks as he slipped into Senegal, carrying the
deadly virus to a fifth West African nation showing how quarantines,
border closures and flight bans have failed to contain the outbreak.
.
Now health officials must try to identify and monitor all of his contacts
in Senegal's capital of Dakar no small feat in a metropolitan area with
more than 2 million people that serves as a major transportation hub and
popular destination for European tourists.
.
The student from Guinea finally showed up at a hospital in Dakar on
Tuesday, seeking treatment but concealing that he had been in contact with
other Ebola victims, Health Minister Awa Marie Coll Seck said.
.
The next day, an epidemiological surveillance team in neighboring Guinea
alerted Senegalese authorities that they had lost track of a person they
were monitoring three weeks earlier, and that the person may have crossed
into Senegal.
.
The student, who is in satisfactory condition, was tracked down in the
Dakar hospital the next day and immediately quarantined, Seck said.
Authorities also sent out a team to disinfect the home where he was
staying.
.
Senegal is among the African nations banning flights from Guinea, Sierra
Leone, Liberia and Nigeria, where the accelerating outbreak has killed
more than 1,500 people. Senegal also has closed major border crossings,
but West Africa's frontiers are so porous that it would be impossible to
seal borders altogether.
