Nigerian treated for ebola in Utrecht makes full recovery
The Nigerian soldier brought to the Netherlands two weeks ago to be treated for ebola has recovered, news agency ANP says on Friday.
Tests have shown the man is no longer infectious and that he can be moved to the military hospital in Utrecht where he will remain until he can be flown home.
The man was treated in a special section of Utrecht University teaching hospital set aside to treat foreign aid workers who had become infected with the disease.
The Nigerian was serving with UN peacekeeping forces in Liberia and was involved in the security of doctors treating ebola patients.
