Possible Ebola virus disease victim in Ireland

The Health and Safety Executive is investigating a possible ebola outbreak in Ireland, after a man is believed to have died from the deadly disease.

The suspected victim is thought to have been from the Mountcharles area, outside Donegal town, County Donegal. It is believed the victim had recently returned from the ebola stricken region of Sierra Leone, where he was working for a telecommunications company.

The man, who was reportedly receiving treatment for malaria when he died, was visiting his parents in Co Donegal when he was taken ill.
