FREETOWN, Sierra Leone --Another Sierra Leonean doctor has died from Ebola, the 10th to succumb to the disease, a health official said Sunday.
Dr. Aiah Solomon Konoyeima died Saturday, according to Chief Medical Officer Dr. Brima Kargbo. His death came a day after two other doctors died from Ebola, emphasizing the tremendous toll the disease has taken on health care workers.
Konoyeima worked at a children's hospital in the capital and tested positive for Ebola about two weeks ago.
