The Ethiopian Government has dispelled rumours of alleged cases of the Ebola in the country. An East Africa correspondent reports that information that Ebola may have been brought into the country by two Chinese who travelled to Nigeria went viral in Addis Ababa last week. Ahmed Amano, the Director, Communication, at the Ethiopian Ministry of Health, told the media in Addis Ababa that the two Chinese national tested negative to the Ebola virus. The Chinese were treated for malaria after being admitted at the Korean hospital in Addis Ababa, he said. Amano said the Ethiopian Government had taken measures to prevent the spread of the virus, including screening of passengers from West Africa on arrival at Bole international airport in Addis Ababa. “The airport is already checking passengers who are coming from West Africa countries with cases of Ebola.” The media recalls that the Ethiopian Government has established a National Committee on Ebola, headed by the Prime Minister, Hailemaria
