Nigerian health authorities say they have completed a 21-day monitoring period for the 62 contacts of a person who contracted the Ebola virus, ⁠⁠with none of them falling ill. Nigeria confirmed its first Ebola case in more than a decade on October 20 in a Swiss woman who had travelled to Uganda and then returned ‌‌to Nigeria. The patient and her husband were evacuated to Switzerland where she recovered fully and has been discharged from hospital. The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) said on Friday that none of the 62 contacts identified after the first case have developed the disease, with the ⁠⁠last contact just discharged.
