Ebola In Scotland: Second Health-care Worker Tested

A second healthcare worker who recently returned from Ebola-hit West Africa is being tested for the virus in Scotland on Tuesday, according to U.K. media reports. On Monday, a healthcare worker in Scotland was diagnosed with Ebola after returning from Sierra Leone. She was transferred to a specialist treatment center in London on Tuesday morning. However, Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said the two cases are not connected and described the second incident as "low risk". Another potential Ebola patient is being tested in Cornwall in south-west England.
