BREAKING: Panic As ANOTHER Suspected Ebola Case Hits Europe
ANOTHER suspected Ebola case has hit Europe with a patient being admitted to hospital in Austria after showing symptoms of the deadly virus.
Health officials announced that the sick patient had just returned from Uganda before showing signs of the fresh strain, Bundibugyo.
They said in a statement: “Yesterday, a person from the Urfahr-Umgebung district was admitted to the hospital for inpatient evaluation due to symptoms of illness.
“Since the person returned from Uganda on Monday – a country currently affected by the ongoing Ebola outbreak – they were isolated and treated in accordance with medical guidelines.”
The patient, who has not been named, returned an initial blood sample but showed no signs of the deadly virus.
But a second sample must be tested to make sure they are not infected and remain isolated until results come in.
