A Maryland hospital has received a potential Ebola patient, a facility spokeswoman said.
A patient was transferred to University of Maryland Medical Center at the request of state health officials and was being treated in isolation, a spokeswoman said Monday night.
The spokeswoman would not say where the patient was transferred from or whether they had recently arrived in the country.
Ebola patient Nina Pham was transported to the National Institute of Health in Bethesda in a high-profile case recently, but was discharged over the weekend after being cleared.
Maryland announced Monday plans to quarantine and ban from public transit those who travel to the state from three West African countries where Ebola continues to spread.
This story will be updated as more information becomes available.
