Freetown - Sierra Leone's Vice President Sam Sumana has placed himself in quarantine following the Ebola death of one of his guards, a government spokesperson said on Saturday, as the country reintroduced travel restrictions as the number of new cases rises again.
Sumana "has decided to place himself in precautionary quarantine awaiting the results of tests by the health authorities", the spokesperson said.
Sumana's bodyguard, 42-year-old John Koroma, died from Ebola on Friday, medical sources said.
