Congolese authorities are carrying out Ebola and cholera screening for all 255 passengers aboard a boat intercepted on the Congo River. Teams from the health ministry and the World Health Organization (WHO) have boarded the boat and set up a mobile lab to conduct tests. Ebola cases have recently been reported there, with at least four deaths. Kamba added there had been no Ebola cases in Mongala Province - where the passenger who died disembarked - contrary to earlier reports. There are currently more than 17,000 people under monitoring after coming into contact with Ebola cases, 674 patients in isolation or treatment across five provinces, and 776 recoveries, according to authorities.
