An unidentified patient is being tested for the Ebola virus Sunday in Methodist University Hospital in Memphis that says it’s acting with “an abundance of caution,” although the patient doesn’t meet all of the screening guidelines.
“The patient is in stable condition, isolated in an area separate from the main hospital on the MUH campus,” said Mary Alice Taylor, MUH communications specialist. “Our experts have an alternate primary diagnosis that has been established, but in an abundance of caution, the team is still strictly following Ebola protocols to protect all caregivers and others. We are waiting for a definitive Ebola test result which we expect to receive this evening. We will report more as we learn more.”
A spokesperson for the Health Department said they are aware of the patient and are working with the hospital.
