Ebola crisis: Spanish nurse tests negative for virus

     

The Spanish nurse who became the first person to contract Ebola outside West Africa has now tested negative for the virus, the Spanish government says,

The result suggests Teresa Romero, 44, is no longer infected - although a second test is required before she can be declared free of Ebola.

Ms Romero contracted the virus when treating two infected patients in a Madrid hospital earlier this month.

The Ebola outbreak has killed more than 4,500 people across West Africa.

Ms Romero tested positive for the virus on 6 October, after she treated two missionaries who had been repatriated from West Africa. The missionaries later died from the virus.

Ms Romero has said she might have become infected when she removed her protective suit.

A doctor in Madrid said she may have touched her face with her gloves after treating one of the missionaries.

Fears of Ebola have become a factor as Americans prepare to go to the polls next month in Congressional elections that could see Democrats losing control of the Senate.
