A 57-year-old nurse has been isolated in Cairns, Australia, with suspected Ebola following her return from Sierra Leone, one of the centers of the epidemic, BBC reported.
Health officials have confirmed the information.
Chief health officer Jeanette Young said the nurse was working in a hospital treating Ebola victims in Sierra Leone.
She has been under quarantine at home since she returned Saturday. After she developed a "low-grade fever" Thursday morning, she was checked into Cairns Hospital at about 1pm.
Test results could be available on Thursday evening or Friday afternoon, health officials stated, as cited by Sydney Morning Herald.
Dr Young said that the woman was working for the Red Cross in Sierra Leone.
“As recommended by national guidelines, this patient has been isolating herself at home and checking her temperature twice daily since her return, and today has reported an elevated temperature of 37.6 degrees,” Dr Young told journalists.
The woman did not pose any health risk to those she traveled with on the plane from Sierra Leone to Australia, doctors said.
