Ebola virus may be lurking in Kenyan monkeys, says Walter Ochieng of the
Kenya Medical Research Institute in Nairobi. Ochieng has found antibodies to the
virus in two monkeys from forests in western Kenya, according to the Panafrican
News Agency. His discovery suggests that the monkeys have been exposed to the
virus and might be spreading the disease to humans. Although people in Kenya
have never contracted the disease, there have been outbreaks in neighbouring
Uganda.
