Three patients escaped from quarantine in the city of Mbandaka in north western Democratic Republic of Congo.
Two of the three have been found dead, while a third patient has been found alive.

The ladies of the Limpopo detective agency should be assigned to this asap.
Yes, perhaps they could persuade people that getting medical care for a deadly disease is the wisest thing.
