Why it matters
Public health authorities must maintain strict surveillance protocols to prevent the spread of highly contagious diseases from outbreak regions to international travelers.
Israel's Ministry of Health said it has received a report of a second suspected Ebola case in an individual who returned from the Democratic Republic of Congo. The individual returned to Israel two days ago and sought medical treatment after developing a fever, headache, and diarrhea, the ministry said, adding that this is only a suspected case at this stage, with test results expected in the coming days.
