Madagascar Hits Kenya with Another Travel Ban over Ebola

Madagascar has added Kenya to the countries facing Ebola-related entry restrictions, following similar measures affecting Uganda, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Bahrain now requires travelers departing Nairobi to undergo health measures and complete a medical declaration; Saudi Arabia and Kuwait had previously imposed comparable restrictions. Kenya has reported 10 Ebola cases, including two deaths, but its Ministry of Health says the situation is under control. The report also says more than 10,000 Ethiopians have fled clashes in Moyale and sought refuge in Kenya.
