GENEVA The World Health Organization declared Nigeria, Africas most populous nation, officially free of Ebola infections on Monday, calling the outcome the triumphal result of world class epidemiological detective work.

.

The announcement came 42 days after the last reported infection in Nigerias outbreak, twice the maximum incubation period for the Ebola virus.

.

In Luxembourg on Monday, the European Union committed itself to step up efforts toward getting $1.27 billion in aid to fight Ebola in West Africa and rejected the idea of halting direct flights coming from the region.

.

The Nigerian response to Ebola was cited by the WHO as an example of the measures other countries can take to halt the spread of the epidemic, which is concentrated in the West African countries of Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone.

.

This is a spectacular success story that shows that Ebola can be contained, WHO said in a report on its website. But it also expressed caution that Nigeria cannot relax its defenses against the deadly virus.

.

More than 9,000 people have become infected and more than 4,500 people have died in the epidemic, and the number of infections is still doubling every month, WHO has reported.

.

Although infection rates have slowed in some districts of the three worst-affected countries, the organization has also reported the spread of the disease to new areas, including districts of Guinea bordering Ivory Coast.

.

Nigerias outbreak started in July when Patrick Sawyer, an American of Liberian descent, traveled by air from Liberia to Lagos, the countrys biggest city, starting a chain of infection that spread the disease to 19 other people and resulted in eight deaths.
