BERLIN — American doctor Peter Stafford on Saturday was discharged from Berlin's Charité hospital, where he was treated for Ebola, the hospital told POLITICO.
Stafford had contracted Ebola in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. According to media reports, Washington refused to allow him back into the United States.
The German government agreed to take in Stafford, his wife and their four children. He was admitted to the special isolation ward at Charité on May 20, where the Bundibugyo virus was detected. His family members did not contract Ebola but were also quarantined in Berlin until Saturday.
