Traveller from Uganda isolated in Bengaluru after showing suspected Ebola symptoms

The woman, who landed at Kempegowda International Airport on May 23 after travelling from Uganda through Ahmedabad, was moved to the State run Epidemic Diseases Hospital in Indiranagar after officials tracking passengers from Ebola affected regions detected signs of fatigue and later recorded mild symptoms.

The Union ministry of health and family welfare said on Wednesday that no Ebola Virus Disease case had been confirmed in India and that the traveller remained stable.

“The Government of India is closely monitoring the evolving Ebola Virus Disease situation in view of recent outbreaks reported in parts of Africa,” the ministry said in a statement.
