肯尼亚确认出现第二例埃博拉病例，此前一名商人在从刚果民主共和国前往东非国家肯尼亚后死于该病毒，已过去10天。
Kenya has confirmed a second case of Ebola, 10 days after a businessman died of the virus after he had travelled to the East African nation from the Democratic Republic of Congo.
肯尼亚卫生部表示，新患者是一名39岁男子，是首例病例的近亲，他在周二出现症状时已经被隔离。
The new patient, a 39-year-old man, is a close relative of the first case and was already in quarantine when he fell ill on Tuesday, Kenya's health ministry says.
埃博拉病毒的潜伏期为2至21天，这意味着接触病毒的人可能数周后才会发病。
The incubation period for Ebola ranges from two to 21 days, meaning those exposed to the virus may not become ill for several weeks.
卫生部表示，早期发现他的病情提高了他康复的机会，并降低了他将病毒传染给他人的风险，并呼吁公众“保持冷静但保持警惕”。
Detecting his illness early had improved his chances of recovery and limited the chance of him passing the virus on to others, the ministry said, as it urged the public to "stay calm but vigilant".
卫生部还说：“两例病例有关联，且目前没有证据表明病毒在更广泛的社区中传播。”
"Both cases are linked, and there is no evidence of spread in the wider community," the ministry said.
卫生部补充道：“肯尼亚仍然对外开放，旅行、贸易和公共集会均无限制。”
"Kenya remains open, with no restrictions on travel, trade or public gatherings", it added.
10月5日去世的40岁肯尼亚男子在首都内罗毕被送往医院后不久被确诊感染埃博拉病毒。
The 40-year-old Kenyan man who died on 5 October was diagnosed with Ebola shortly after being admitted to hospital in the capital, Nairobi.
一名亲属在从机场接到他后不久将他送往医院。他从刚果民主共和国出发，经乌干达前往肯尼亚，途中其病情未被发现。
A relative had taken him there shortly after picking him up at the airport. He had travelled from DR Congo, through Uganda to Kenya without his illness being detected.
自他去世以来，官员们已确定他曾与128人有过接触，且自周二起，其中113人已被追踪到，卫生部表示。
Since his death, officials had determined that he had been in contact with 128 people - and since Tuesday 113 of them had been found, the health ministry said.
在这些人中，有108人目前在肯尼亚接受隔离，其余15人的追踪工作仍在继续，卫生部称。
Of these, 108 were in quarantine in Kenya and tracing of the remaining 15 continued, it said.
今年已有超过4000人在刚果民主共和国死于埃博拉病毒，这是迄今为止第二严重的已知埃博拉疫情爆发。埃博拉病毒通过接触感染者的体液（如血液或呕吐物）传播。
More than 4,000 people have died from Ebola in DR Congo this year, in what is the second most deadly known outbreak to date. The Ebola virus spreads through contact with infected bodily fluids such as blood or vomit.
肯尼亚卫生部表示：“任何出现发烧、异常疲劳、肌肉或关节疼痛、呕吐、腹泻或不明原因出血的人应尽快前往最近的医疗机构就诊。”
"Anyone with fever, unusual tiredness, muscle or joint pains, vomiting, diarrhoea or unexplained bleeding should seek care promptly at the nearest health facility," Kenya's health ministry said.
自5月以来，刚果民主共和国的疫情爆发由埃博拉病毒的邦迪布吉奥种引起，这种病毒相对罕见，目前尚无获批准的疫苗或治疗方法 — — 尽管相关试验正在进行。
The current outbreak in DR Congo, which began in May, has been caused by the Bundibugyo species of Ebola, which is relatively rare, with no approved vaccine or treatment - though trials are under way.
刚果民主共和国在5月宣布爆发埃博拉疫情后不久，乌干达也报告了病例，其中两人死亡。然而，世界卫生组织（WHO）在8月宣布该地区已无该疾病。
Shortly after DR Congo declared an outbreak of Ebola in May, it was also reported in Uganda, where two people died. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared that county free of the disease in August.
非洲疾病预防控制中心是该大陆领先的公共卫生机构，已重建了肯尼亚患者在去世前六周的行动轨迹。
The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, the continent's leading public health agency, has reconstructed the Kenyan patient's movements for the six weeks leading up to his death.
调查显示，他首次在9月15日于刚果民主共和国开始感到不适 — — 并且暴露出多次发现感染的机会被错失，包括多次前往刚果医疗机构就诊期间。
It revealed that he first started feeling unwell in DR Congo on 15 September - and showed how several opportunities to detect the infection were missed, including during several visits to Congolese medical facilities.
随后，他设法经乌干达前往肯尼亚 — — 但在机场筛查时再次未被发现。卫生专家表示，这凸显了仅依赖体温检测和自我申报的局限性。前往 获取更多关于非洲大陆的新闻。
He then managed to travel through Uganda to Kenya - and was again not detected at airports screenings. Health experts say it highlights the limitations of relying on temperature checks and self-declarations. Go to for more news from the African continent.
