Man's Ebola relapse spawned dozens of new cases in Africa
(AP Photo/Jerome Delay, File)A man in Africa who developed Ebola despite receiving a vaccine recovered but suffered a relapse nearly six months later that led to 91 new cases before he died. This is the first one clearly shown to have spawned a large cluster of new cases. In June 2019, he developed symptoms and was diagnosed with the disease. In late November, he again developed symptoms and sought care at a health center and from a traditional healer. Giving them to Ebola patients is thought to boost the immune system, and studies suggest they improve survival.
