Senegal has closed its border with Guinea because of the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, despite warnings that such measures are counterproductive.
Senegal also banned flights and ships from Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone – the three worst-hit countries.
The World Health Organization (WHO) says travel bans do not work, especially if they stop doctors going to help tackle the crisis.
In Liberia, a boy shot while protesting about a quarantine has reportedly died.
Shakie Kamara, 16, was one of three people seriously injured on Wednesday after security forces fired at protesters, angry after blockades were erected around the West Point slum.
