The disease that has killed thousands in Africa is now confirmed in the United States. The victim who showed symptoms of the disease had blood-work tested and received the terrible news from the CDC, that the blood tested showed evidence of Ebola.
A patient being treated at a Dallas, Texas, hospital is the first case of Ebola virus diagnosed in the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Wednesday.
Several other Americans were diagnosed in West Africa and then brought to the United States for treatment.
The CDC is expected to provide more details on the case in a press conference at 5:30 p.m.
