(Reuters) - Health officials in Dallas charged with checking the spread of Ebola have narrowed their focus to about 50 people who had direct or indirect contact with an infected Liberian traveler, including 10 at high risk who are being checked twice daily for symptoms.

.

A cleanup crew began decontaminating the Dallas apartment where the man, Thomas Eric Duncan, had been staying before he was admitted to the hospital five days ago and where he remained in serious condition on Friday.

.

Four people close to Duncan who were quarantined in the apartment in a northeastern section of the city "will be moved to another location soon," Dallas County Fire Marshal Robert De Los Santos told reporters. Earlier, the county said it was safe for them to remain there during the cleanup.

.

The case has put authorities and the public on alert over concerns that the worst epidemic of the deadly virus on record could spread from three impoverished West African countries: Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone. The World Health Organization on Friday updated its death toll to at least 3,439 out of 7,492 suspected, probable and confirmed cases.

.

The handling of the Dallas case in the early stages of Duncan's illness has raised questions about how prepared local and national health officials were to handle that case and whether people were unnecessarily exposed.

.

Dr. David Lakey, commissioner of the Texas Department of State Health Services, said at a news conference that out of 100 people who needed to be reached, "There's now approximately 50 individuals we feel we need to follow on a daily basis."

,

"Most of those individuals are at low risk. There are about 10 individuals who are at higher risk. We continue to watch those individuals closely."
