Revelation 6:7,8 NCV When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse. Its rider was named death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill people by war, by starvation, by disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.
Liberian officials confirmed a third case of Ebola on Thursday, two months after the country had declared itself Ebola free.
A case management leader for the country’s Ebola Task Force says that the three villagers with the disease “have a history of having had dog meat together.” Dog meat is common in the diet of Liberians.
The first confirmed case, a 17-year-old boy, died Sunday about 30 miles from the capital city of Monrovia. The other two cases are in the same village as the dead teen.
“The two (latest) live cases are 24 years old and 27 years old. They are stable,” Deputy Health Minister Tolbert Nyenswah said on Thursday.
Scientists say that there is no proof yet that dogs can carry the Ebola virus. Humans have been infected in past outbreaks by eating contaminated monkey meat.
“There is no need to panic. Our health team is on top of it. It will be contained,” Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf told Reuters.
At least 175 people are being monitored because of contact with the three confirmed cases.
