New Delhi: The government has asked those travelling to India from Ebola-affected countries to carry a certificate stating that there is no evidence of the deadly virus in their body fluids, after a person cured of the disease was found to be carrying the virus in his semen.
In case people having been discharged after being treated for Ebola do not have the certificate from the health ministry of the country concerned, they have been advised not to travel to India for a period of 90 days from their discharge, health minister JP Nadda told Lok Sabha on Friday.
The ministry of external affairs has issued the advisory to the Indian embassies in Abidjan (Ivory Coast), Dakar (Senegal), Abuja (Nigeria), Accra (Ghana) and Niamey (Niger) on November 21 after a person returning from Liberia was quarantined at the Delhi airport.
