Ebola patient dies in US

AlHijjah 14, 1435, Oct 8, 2014, SPA -- Thomas Eric Duncan, a Liberian man who was the
first patient to be diagnosed with Ebola outside of Africa, died of
the disease in a US hospital Wednesday.
"Mr Duncan succumbed to an insidious disease, Ebola," a statement
from the Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas said.
The 42-year-old was infected with the Ebola virus in Liberia, but did
not begin to show symptoms of the disease until a few days after his
arrival in Texas on September 20.
Duncan was the first person to be diagnosed with Ebola outside of
Africa.
