There is growing worry about Ebola in Nigeria. Experts are trying to figure out exactly how the virus got into the country.
One confirmed case involves the wife of a Swiss diplomat. Health officials have traced this case back to a virus found in Kenya. This has made things more complicated for doctors on the ground.
It is not just Nigeria facing trouble. The World Health Organization (WHO) says the outbreak is getting more complex. The virus has now been found in three different African countries, and there are concerns it has touched four countries in total since starting in Congo.
Ebola is a very serious sickness that spreads through contact with bodily fluids. Health teams are working hard to track down everyone who may have been near these patients.
The main goal right now is to stop the virus from moving any further. For now, officials are keeping a close watch on the situation and warning people to be very careful.
