Mali has reported a total of four new Ebola cases since Tuesday, including three deaths, according to a statement from the Ministry of Health (MOH).
The four patients are related to a Guinean imam who had received treatment in a private clinic in Bamako, says the statement.
The statement also noted that at least 256 people in close contact with the patients are being closely monitored for sanitary control.
Calling on the public to stay calm, the Malian government has taken essential measures to prevent the spread of the disease, the statement added.
The MOH also urges all people who have direct or indirect contact with the patients to do a health check.
Markatie Daou, spokesman for the MOH, revealed that one of the deceased is a nurse who had treated the Guinean imam in Bamako's Pasteur Clinic.
Mali confirmed its first Ebola case in late October.
