Rwanda patient tests negative for Ebola: health ministry

Rwanda said Tuesday that a German man put in isolation with fever had tested negative for the deadly tropical disease Ebola. "We would like to inform you that the suspected case of Ebola tested negative," the Ministry of Health said in a statement. Minister of Health Agnes Binagwaho said the patient was a medical student who had recently spent time in Liberia, one of four west African countries where the virus has been spreading. Like other nations across east Africa, Rwanda says it has put in place measures against the deadly virus.
