The Ministry of Health informed the World Health Organization that four out of six samples in the cluster tested positive for Ebola in preliminary lab results. These new cases have emerged just about a week after the government of Congo declared that a recent ravaging Ebola outbreak was over . The rare and deadly Ebola virus disease causes symptoms including fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, fatigue, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain, and unexplained bleeding.
