BREAKING: Panic As Patient Tested For Suspected Ebola In British Hospital [DETAILS]
A patient is being tested for suspected Ebola in a hospital in Britain.
A ward of the hospital in Glasgow is said to have been partially closed due to a suspected case of the virus on Tuesday.
The patient is understood to have arrived at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital’s Acute Receiving Unit during the early hours of the morning.
Outbreaks of Ebola have been recorded in both the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Uganda.
There have been almost 700 confirmed cases of bundibugyo Ebola virus, the majority of which are in DRC.
Some 138 people have died, including two in neighbouring Uganda.
Also, one case has been discovered in France.
If confirmed, it would be the first case in the UK since the outbreak in DRC was declared a public health emergency of international concern by the World Health Organisation.
