The unidentified man fell sick with "fever, headache, fatigue [and] abdominal pain" last month in Gueckedou in Guinea, close to the borders with Sierra Leone and Liberia, WHO officials announced Monday.
He died on Aug.
2, with tests finally showing that he died from Marburg, a "highly infectious disease that causes hemorrhagic fever" — and has a fatality rate of up to 88 percent, the WHO said.
Marburg "is in the same family as the virus that causes Ebola," which killed at least 11,325 people in the 2014-2016 epidemic that started in the same part of Guinea.
