The World Health Organization has closed its Kailahun, Sierra Leone lab after a Senegalese epidemiologist was infected with Ebola while working there. Because this is one of only two labs in the country which processes Ebola tests, the ability to definitively diagnose patients is limited. WHO is conducting an assessment and plans to reopen the lab when it can better protect the health of the remaining workers. It is unclear how long this will take.
