ANOTHER HEALTH WORKER TESTS POSITIVE TO EBOLA IN U.S



Few days after a nurse, Nina Pham tested positive to Ebola Virus Disease, another health worker at the Texas Presbyterian Hospital has also tested positive to the killer disease. The new case was also one of those that attended to the index case Eric Duncan, the Liberian who exported Ebola to the U.S.

While confirming the report, the U.S center for Disease Control and Prevention said, "A second healthcare worker at Texas Presbyterian Hospital who provided care for the index patient has tested positive for Ebola according to preliminary test performed overnight by the Texas Department of State Health Services Laboratory".
