Nigeria may be making steady progress to fully contain the Ebola virus disease, but some countries can’t say the same as the World Health Organization (WHO) has said the death toll from West Africa's Ebola outbreak has risen to more than 2,400.
The recent toll announced Friday comes from at least 4,784 cases reported in the region. What is even more worrying is that the WHO says the figure  is  likely to be an underestimate.
Director general of the Organisation, Margaret Chan said the number of cases of the deadly viral disease is rising faster than authorities' ability to manage it.
The countries worst hit by the virus are Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia with majority deaths recorded in the regions.
