Monrovia — Several Liberians have commended the World Health Organization for declaring Liberia Ebola free. On September 3, the WHO declared Liberia free of Ebola virus transmission in the human population. Forty-two days have passed since the second negative test on 22 July 2015 of the last laboratory-confirmed case. Liberia now enters a 90-day period of heightened surveillance.
Ciatta Beyslow, Management student UMU, said she was overwhelmed by the declaration but cautioned that she fears that if people move away from good health practices the virus could remerge. "Today, I am happy that we are declared free, but what is the Government doing that we wouldn't have this virus again."
