Tanzania (KAAB TV) – In Tanzania, it was announced that the Marburg virus has broken out, which has killed some people in the country, and the government has already started efforts to prevent the virus from spreading further.
The president of Tanzania, Samiya Suluhu Hassan, announced that the Marburg virus has broken out in her country, which is a virus similar to Ebola.
She said that efforts are underway to prevent the spread of the disease in the country, and she added that she is confident that they will overcome the new Marburg virus that has been seen in their country.
The World Health Organization (WHO) said a week ago that there are suspected cases of the Marburg virus in Tanzania, and nine cases of the disease have been recorded in the country, with eight people dying in five days.
Tanzania’s Minister of Health, Jenista Mhagama, denied in a statement that the Marburg virus was found in their country, and noted that the suspected people who died when tested did not have the virus.
