GENEVA – A second case of polio has been found in Angola, suggesting that the deadly disease could be spreading in the southwest African country, the U.N. health agency said Tuesday.

“Certainly they’ve got an outbreak,” Oliver Rosenbauer, spokesman for the World Health Organization’s polio eradication program, told The Associated Press. “The spread of it remains to be seen.”
