Ebola scare hits Tyrol as woman's body found
Published: 17 Aug 2014 22:53 GMT+02:00

The discovery of a woman's body whose cause of death is as yet unknown has triggered precautionary testing for the possible presence of the highly infectious ebola disease in the town of Vomp in Tyrol.

The 48-year-old woman recently traveled to Austria from Nigeria via Germany. Her body was found on Saturday night in her apartment.

A friend of the deceased notified police when the woman was not reachable. Police believe they can rule out a violent crime as the cause of death...

...According to experts in infectious diseases, it is extremely unlikely that ebola was the cause of death in this case, but officials are taking no chances...
