In a recent update, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is advising healthcare providers in the U.S. to continue to get travel history from patients.
Healthcare facilities are advised to isolate patients that have Ebola-like symptoms and a recent (within 21 days) history of travel to the affected areas in the Equateur Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, pending diagnostic testing.
Providers should also consider other infectious disease risks that are much more common in returning travelers, including malaria.
CDC has deployed and will continue to deploy disease detectives and other experts to assist during this outbreak, the update said.
