Health officials in the West African nation of Mali have confirmed that the country has its first case of Ebola, becoming the sixth one in the region to be afflicted by the deadly outbreak, the worst on record, in which nearly 5,000 have died.

Ousmane Kone, the Malian health minister, said on state television that the patient was from the western town of Kayes — a two-year-old girl who had recently come from neighboring Guinea, where the current outbreak began.

“The condition of the girl, according to our services, is improving thanks to her rapid treatment,” the minister said, as reported by Reuters.

Separately, a health ministry official who requested anonymity, told Reuters that the girl’s mother had died — ostensibly from Ebola — just a few weeks prior. The official went on to say the child was brought to the Malian capital of Bamako by relatives, where she remained for 10 days in the Bagadadji neighborhood before she was taken to Kayes.

Reuters further reported:

A ministry statement said the girl, who came from the Guinean town of Kissidougou, was admitted at the Fousseyni Daou hospital in Kayes [recently], where she was promptly tested for Ebola.

People who came into contact with the patient in Kayes have been identified and placed under watch, the minister said, but he appealed to any person who believed they may have had contact with the girl to step forward.
