Five cases of individuals who acquired the virus have been confirmed by health authorities. The first case identified last week was a Japanese citizen traveling from West Africa.
Prime Minister Abiy has also alerted religious institutions to reduce mass gatherings or suspend them all together.
The high-level committee advised small public gatherings to take place after organisers had consultations with officials from the Ministry of Health. Despite the closure of schools, public universities will remain open under guidelines to be provided by the Ministry of Science & Higher Education. The students will also stay at their campuses.
