Court upholds order halting proposed Ebola quarantine facility

The government has suffered a fresh legal setback after the High Court upheld its earlier order halting plans to establish a quarantine facility intended to isolate or treat Americans infected with Ebola. In its ruling, the court also directed the government to make public all contracts, agreements and other documents related to the proposed arrangement between Kenya and the United States. The decision comes amid growing public uproar over the plan. This comes as a group of activists staged demonstrations outside the Ministry of Health headquarters, denouncing the proposal.
