Re: Spain: Suspected ebola case in Bilbao

A man has tested negative for the deadly Ebola virus in the northern Spanish city of Bilbao after returning from the African nation of Sierra Leone with a high fever several days ago.

The middle-aged man who is being kept in isolation at the city's Basurto hospital does not have the deadly disease, El Correo newspaper reported on Tuesday.

However, tests carried out at Madrid's Carlos III hospital indicated the man who was in Sierra Leone on business may be suffering from malaria, which presents with symptoms similar to Ebola.

His condition has been described as stable.
