The patient is understood to be at least the fifth case investigated in Sweden since the virus started spreading rapidly in Africa earlier this year.
They have been been transferred to the infectious diseases clinic at Karolinska University Hospital in Huddinge, according to news agency TT.
"Despite the fact that there were very low suspicions, we decided to take the test. We will get the answer within a day," Åke Örtqvist, spokesperson for doctors dealing with infectious diseases in the Stockholm region.
The sample was sent to the Public Health Agency safety laboratory.
Sweden's Public Health Agency has checked out at least four previous suspected Ebola cases this year.
So far, no suspected case has been confirmed.[/quote]

It's oveeeeer
yeah it's not gonna be Ebola, but shit that would suck
Is this a false positive again?
Even if it's Ebola, it will not spread far here at all, especially not with winter coming. We can expect a few cases though, given that Sweden currently has very liberal immigration policies.
I really don't think I'll ever get within a 100 mile radius, or more, of someone with Ebola anytime soon. I live in fucking [I]Oklahoma[/I], one of the most central super-landlocked no-reason-to-come-here states in America.

Oklahoma is a nice place, come here if you don't want Ebola, but if you're anywhere in the rural areas, I hope you won't mind the smell of cow shit.

Probably not going to be Ebola, and even if it is we can handle it

It can't be a false positive if it has never been a positive.
It's just a precaution.
Abandon Sweden, we still have Norway and Finland for Scandinavia
What about Denmark :(
Fail to see how this is newsworthy, Sweden might as well be an african country at this point

Got me thinking. Is the vinterkräksjuka more or less contagious than ebola?

WE HAVE THE TOOLS AND WE HAVE THE TALENT!

Seasonal flu is a lot more contagious than Ebola. Poor hygiene is the reason Ebola can spread so quickly, which makes it an almost non-issue in developed countries where we have means of sanitation always available.
