From Tel Aviv: A Possible Ebola Variant (Sudan) Case Has Appeared In An Israeli Traveler -- Flying Out Of East Africa...


Again, this Israeli national arriving at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv fell ill after visiting Uganda, but it is not yet confirmed that his is the Sudan Ebola virus, or even Ebola at all -- just yet.

Even so, Israel will now screen incoming passengers from Uganda. Here's the latest from The Jerusalem Post:

. . .An Israeli who had fallen ill after returning from Uganda amid the ongoing Ebola virus outbreak in East Africa was hospitalized in a quarantined section of Sheba Medical Center, KAN News reported on Friday.

Health Ministry officials are reportedly concerned he might have contracted Ebola during his stay in Uganda.

The first Ebola test taken by the patient yielded a negative result, according to the report. He is nevertheless set to remain in quarantine, as symptoms can begin to appear after 21 days. . . .


This may soon be the policy for all middle eastern countries. Onward, awaiting a green light for the ring vaccine tests of the Sabin Institute's vaccine candidate, in-country in Uganda, while smiling a sad smile, on a cool fall Friday evening. . . .
