Howard University hospital in Washington, D.C., confirmed Friday that it has admitted a patient -- a recent traveler to Nigeria -- who has symptoms that could be associated with Ebola.
The unidentified patient is listed in stable condition, according to Kerry-Ann Hamilton, a spokesperson for the hospital.
"In an abundance of caution, we have activated the appropriate infection control protocols, including isolating the patient. Our medical team continues to evaluate and monitor progress in close collaboration with the CDC and the Department of Health," Hamilton said in a statement.
The statement did not indicate when the patient had most recently been in Nigeria.
Dr. Joxel Garcia, director of the D.C. Department of Health, said his organization is working with the Centers for Control and Prevention and Howard University Hospital "to monitor any patients displaying symptoms associated with the Ebola virus. At this time, there are no confirmed cases of Ebola in the District of Columbia."

Really,
Are you wacked? How much ammo do you need to shoot yourself after you find out you have Ebola? I'm thinking 1 shot with your .223 round should do it.
