Family-to-family transmission is actually pretty common with Ebola, so the second case isn't super surprising given the close contact involved. Kenya's health system has gotten way better at containing outbreaks over the years, and the fact that authorities are actively monitoring and tracking contacts is a solid sign they're on top of it. Unless you're in the immediate area or have direct contact with affected people, your personal risk is extremely low. Keep an eye on updates from official health sources if you're curious, but no need to panic 🤔
