| October 12, 2014 Comment

Spanish Nurse Infected with Ebola Makes Progress – Officials said Sunday, Spain’s Ebola patient showed some marginal signs of recovery Sunday but European infectious diseases experts found shortcomings that need fixing in the Madrid hospital designated to deal with Ebola cases.

A government statement said, assistant nurse Teresa Romero, who was infected with the Ebola in a Madrid hospital after having contact with two Spanish missionaries who later died from the virus, is showing signs of slight improvement.

Fernando Simon, the Health Ministry’s coordinator of emergency alerts, said one sign for optimism was that “the virus load” in Romero’s bloodstream was decreasing. Simon told a news conference at Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy’s official residence that he had met with the two-man European communicable disease threats committee and been told of its concerns.
