AN Australian nurse remains under Ebola observation in a UK hospital.
THE nurse – whose name hasn’t been released for privacy reasons – was transferred to the UK from Sierra Leone on Saturday following a “low-risk clinical incident” at the Australian-managed Ebola Treatment Centre (ETC) there, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop has said.
A medical assessment in the UK determined the risk of the nurse developing the deadly disease remained low. Ms Bishop said the nurse would undergo “a highly precautionary” 21-day observation.
