A U.S. healthcare worker who had been in West Africa and may have been exposed to the Ebola virus is being transferred to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, a hospital spokeswoman said on Wednesday.
The patient will be monitored and observed for signs of infection. The hospital said it did not have a time of arrival and was unable to share more details "out of respect for patient privacy and in accordance with the patient's wishes." It did not say where the patient is currently located or when he or she returned to the United States.

BOVINE EXCREMENT.... IMO, the real reason is so as not to create a panic when people find out how many others the "patient" could have exposed.
Could this be the "possible Ebola" from Boston the other night?
Ebola? Yawn. Who cares any more?
