A contagious bacterial infection appears to be the cause of at least some cases in a mysterious outbreak in Liberia, U.S. health officials said Monday, May 8, 2017. The U.S. CDC tested samples from four of the deceased people and found the bacteria, called Neisseria meningitidis. The bacteria is to blame for a “meningitis belt” in sub-Saharan Africa that passes close to Liberia. (James Volk/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention via AP)
