BERLIN: A United States citizen infected with the Ebola virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo was admitted to Frankfurt University Hospital early on Monday, officials said.
The patient arrived at the hospital’s special isolation unit at around 3 a.m. local time (0100 GMT) after contracting the Bundibugyo variant of the Ebola virus in Congo, the hospital said.
The US CDC said on Friday that a US citizen working for a humanitarian organization in Congo had tested positive for the Bundibugyo Ebola virus.
