A Madrid hospital expanded its monitoring of people who may be at risk of contracting Ebola from an infected woman and the U.K. will screen arriving passengers as Europe stepped up its watch on the deadly virus.
Thirteen people are under observation in Madrid, including the husband of 44-year-old nursing assistant Teresa Romero, who became infected after caring for two missionaries with Ebola, the La Paz-Carlos III hospital said last night in an e-mailed statement. None are showing symptoms. Romero’s condition is “serious but stable,” the hospital said.
