Kenya has recorded a second Ebola death, the Health Ministry said on Friday.

Officials said the 65-year-old woman had developed symptoms during quarantine and was a close relative of a Kenyan man who died of Ebola earlier this month.

"Sadly, she succumbed to ⁠the ​disease early ​this evening," the ministry said.

Seven people continue to receive treatment for the illness in Kenya.
