January 24, 2015 16:57

Liberia said today it had just five remaining cases of Ebola, confirming it was close to eradicating an epidemic which has left thousands dead. The worst outbreak of the virus in history has seen the west African nation and its neighbours Guinea and Sierra Leone register almost 9,000 deaths in a year, although experts believe the real toll could be far higher. "We have five confirmed Ebola cases in Liberia as of today," assistant health minister Tolbert Nyensuwah said.
