# Mayinga N'Seka

> Mayinga N'Seka was a nurse in Zaire, now the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She died from Ebola virus disease during the 1976 epidemic in Zaire. She was incorrectly identified as the index case by several sources, but a World Health Organization commission report on the outbreak lists a man from Yambuku, Mabalo Lokela, as the index case. Lokela, a 44-year-old who had been buying meat in Sudan, died on September 8, 1976, over a month before N'Seka.
