The French health ministry confirmed the identification of the first positive case of Ebola virus disease on national territory. The doctor, who was isolated on arrival in France, became the first person to be detected with Ebola in the country.

The case has been identified as the Bundibugyo strain, which is causing the current outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The outbreak was declared on May 15 after several unexplained deaths in the eastern Ituri province. The Bundibugyo strain has no approved vaccine or treatment.

The risk of the outbreak spreading worldwide is estimated to be low due to the relatively low contagiousness of the Ebola virus. Public health experts say the risk is manageable with proper isolation and treatment.

The doctor was in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is battling its 17th Ebola outbreak. The outbreak has affected several areas in the mineral-rich but volatile eastern Ituri province.

Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu is said to be monitoring the situation closely. France has never seen a case of Ebola before, and this is the first time the disease has been detected on the continent.
