Please NOTE that this patient is the first to be diagnosed outside Africa with the strain that is currently epidemic there, said CDC director Thomas Frieden, during a conference call with reporters. The outbreak has largely been concentrated in three countries: Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, where 6,574 have been sickened and 3,091 have died so far.

CDC director Thomas Frieden said:

“I have no doubt we will control this importation of Ebola so it does not spread widely in this country.” 

The patient came to the US to visit family members here and stayed with them, said Frieden. People who shared a flight with him are not at risk for developing Ebola, as patients don’t spread the disease until they have symptoms. This patient’s symptoms developed four days after the flight. Two days later, on September 26, he sought care, and he was admitted to a hospital and placed in isolation on September 28. The patient wasn’t hospitalized right away because early Ebola symptoms look a lot like many other diseases, Frieden says.

“Only someone sick can spread the disease,” Frieden says. So anyone the patient was in contact with starting on September 20, is being tracked by public health authorities. They’ll be tracked for 21 days; after that, if the disease hasn’t developed, it won’t. That means that people on the flight
