GOMA, DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO - Twelve people were ordered to undergo testing for possible Ebola infection in Goma in Democratic Republic of the Congo on Saturday , only days after three patients in the densely populated city tested positive for the disease, the country's presidency said.

A one-year-old girl became the third patient to test positive for Ebola in Goma, local officials said last Wednesday.
