Cape Town, Shawwal 29, 1435, August 25, 2014, SPA -- A Liberian doctor died of Ebola despite being treated with the experimental drug ZMapp, local newspaper Front Page Africa reported Monday, according to dpa. Abraham Borbor was one of three doctors who received ZMapp in Liberia. He became infected with the virus when treating Ebola patients at the John F Kennedy Medical Centre in the capital, Monrovia. Information Minister Lewis Brown said Borbor's death late Sunday came as a shock. "He was walking around yesterday, and the doctors were hopeful that he would make a full recovery," Brown said. The other two doctors, a Nigerian and a Ugandan working in Liberia, are still undergoing treatment, according to the government. --SPA 14:06 LOCAL TIME 11:06 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
