***ALERTS*** Spanish priest infected with Ebola Virus in Liberia has died

The 75 year old Spanish priest who was infected with the Ebola virus in Liberia and evacuated to Spain to get better treatment has died, a Madrid spokeswoman from Madrid Health authorities said this morning.

Fr. Miguel Pajares who was airlifted from Liberia on August 7 after contracting the disease while working for a non-governmental organisation in the African country started using the experimental Zmapp drug last Saturday 9th August but sadly lost the battle to the deadly virus.

This will be the first European that has died from the outbreak of the deadly virus.
