Another American missionary doctor who has been helping victims of the Ebola virus has been reported to have tested positive for Ebola. The doctor who was unnamed works with the missionary group, SIM USA, is the third US aid worker to have contracted Ebola in Liberia, according to USA TODAY.
The doctor has reportedly been treating pregnant women only in Monrovia and has not been treating any Ebola patients in the hospital’s isolation unit, and so it is unclear how he got infected with the virus. The doctor is said to have isolated himself immediately he discovered he had Ebola symptoms.
The first two Americans who also contracted Ebola in Liberia were Kent Brantly of Samaritan’s Purse, and Nancy Writebol of SIM USA have both been treated and totally cured of the virus.
