Six people have died in an outbreak of Marburg hemorrhagic fever in Rwanda, the country’s Ministry of Health announced.
Around 20 patients have been treated for the disease.
– The infected and the deceased were mainly healthcare workers, says the country’s health minister Sabin Nsanzimana to local media.
He adds that efforts are underway to trace and test people who have been in contact with them.
Marburg is similar to Ebola and has a fatality rate of up to 88 percent. The course of the disease is rapid and sudden, with high fever, severe headache and nausea. At a later stage, the infected may begin to bleed in the skin and internal organs.
There are no approved cures or vaccines.

A rescue mission to bring home two astronauts stuck on the International Space Station ISS has been launched by Space X. However, the astronauts will not be allowed to return to Earth until next year.
The now-launched Space X craft has two empty seats for astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, and in order not to alter the schedule of other planned missions, they will not return home until the end of February.
The Boeing Starliner craft with which the two astronauts went up into space landed on Earth earlier in September, when Nasa judged that the journey home with it was too risky.
