Freetown:  Authorities in Sierra Leone quarantined three doctors and 28 nurses in the capital Freetown when a mother tested positive for Ebola after giving birth, the health ministry said today.

Doctors were unable to stem the woman's bleeding and she was transferred to an emergency ward at the Princess Christian Maternity Hospital, where she tested positive for the deadly virus on Saturday.

"All the health workers as well as the baby are now quarantined... and will be there for observation for 21 days," ministry spokesman Jonathan Abass Kamara said.
