The patient arrived in Omaha on January 4 for treatment in the biocontainment unit at Nebraska Medical Center. The hospital said in a news release Monday that the patient will remain in the unit throughout the virus's 21-day incubation period, which began before he or she arrived at the hospital.
A discharge date was not released.
The hospital says the patient doesn't want to be publicly identified but authorized the condition update.
Nebraska Medical Center treated three people with Ebola last autumn. One died and two recovered. One of the survivors, Dr. Rick Sacra, said Monday that he's returning to Liberia, where he was infected.
