> Kenya confirmed a third Ebola case, a relative of a man who died earlier this month after travelling from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The 65-year-old woman tested positive while in quarantine, where she had been since 5 October. A 39-year-old man from the same family is stable. Officials say there is no evidence of community transmission because both patients were quarantined.
