MONROVIA, April 1 (LINA) - A 30-year-old woman, who tested positive of the Ebola Virus Disease at the Redemption Hospital on Bushrod Island, has died, Deputy Health Minister Tolbert Nyenswah has confirmed.

"We are still investigating where this lady came from," he said when asked about the community the victim came from.
