Panic arose at some community in Liberia as two Ebola victims suddenly rose back to death.

Mirror reports that the victims, who are both females in their 40s and 60s, died of the deadly virus in separate communities in Nimba County, Liberia.

But the pair were said to have risen from their deaths and are now walking among the living, causing panic and fear among locals.

The victims have been identified as late Dorris Quoi of Hope Village Community and Ma Kebeh, in her late 60s, were about to be taken for burial when they resurrected from the dead, according to the New Dawn Nimba County, a local newspaper.

Ma Kebeh was reported to be indoors for two nights without food and medication before her alleged death.

However, it would be worthy to note that Nimba County has recently reported unusual news of Ebola cases, including one about a native doctor from the county, who claimed that he could cure infected victims, dying of the virus himself last week.

The local tabloid however made it clear that since the Ebola outbreak in Nimba County, this is the first incident of dead victims resurrecting.

Since the Ebola outbreak around 2,800 people in five West African countries have been killed this year while an estimated 5,800 people have been infected with the virus, which has no known cure.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has already warned the number of people infected with the Ebola could reach 20,000 by the beginning of November if steps to contain the outbreak are not accelerated.
