The United States will begin enhanced Ebola screening on Monday for travelers whose trips started in the African nation of Mali, the government said on Sunday.
Mali has been added to the list of countries (Sierra Leone and Liberia) whose travelers face heightened screening because there have been a number of confirmed cases of Ebola there in recent days, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Homeland Security said in a statement.
"A large number of individuals may have been exposed to those cases," it said. There are no direct flights to the United States from Mali, but an average of 15 to 20 travelers a day start their trips there, the statement said.

PARIS - The French foreign ministry warned against travel to Mali due to a second outbreak of Ebola in the former French colony.
The ministry said in a statement that since Oct. 24 several cases of Ebola had been confirmed in the capital Bamako and in the western city of Kayes, close to the border with Senegal.
French citizens should not travel to, or stay in, the Kayes region or in Bamako and citizens living there should follow guidance from the Mali authorities, the ministry said.
