The incident occurred in Tanzania, where the World Health Organization campaigns against Ebola, malaria and dengue, but upon finding this disease, it decided to activate an African investigation team in order to investigate the cause of death.

At first, it was believed that it was dengue or malaria, so the woman was isolated and treatment began according to these diseases. Then by not reacting, it was believed that it was Ebola, so it attracted the attention of the WHO. However, after several medical tests, she was not diagnosed with this disease.

Since then, all the isolation mechanisms were activated. At the moment the disease that could cause the death of the woman is unknown, while the World Health Organization invited to take the necessary preventive measures when these types of situations appear, to avoid possible infections or that other people are infected.
