After months of not hearing about Ebola many believed that the deadly virus was no longer a major threat, however, on Friday two new cases were reported in West Africa.
The Associated Press noted that the World Health Organization confirmed that two people in Guinea have fallen ill from the virus.
One of the cases came out of the country’s capital city of Conakry and the other is out of the western town of Forecariah.
"On the bumpy road we keep talking about - the high risk of recurrence - once again we are navigating a few bumps," said WHO spokeswoman Margaret Harris. "Of course we didn't want it, but we did expect it. Guinea hadn't got to the stage where we were looking at 42 days.”
Guinea was just a few weeks away from joining Liberia in the crucial 42-day Ebola-free status.
More than 11,000 people have been killed by the worst Ebola outbreak in history. Most of the deaths occurred last year in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.
