KUALA LUMPUR: The report being circulated in the social websites including Facebook, that an Ebola case has been detected in the country is false.
Confirming this today, Health director general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah censured the parties who spread such rumours as irresponsible, saying there had been no quarantine cases related to the disease.
"The risk of Ebola into Malaysia is very low. Don't spread news that are false," he said through Twitter today.
Ebola is a hemorrhagic fever, often fatal to humans and other primates such as monkeys.
It has caused more than 1,000 deaths in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea in West Africa since March. - Bernama
