Hawaii Department of Health rules out Ebola in Honolulu patient

The Hawaii Department of Health has ruled out Ebola in a Honolulu patient.

The patient was in isolation and undergoing testing at Queen’s Medical Center.

“After investigation by the health department, it was determined that the individual did not meet the clinical or travel exposure criteria for an Ebola infection,” said Health Director Dr. Linda Rosen.

The department said Thursday that the patient was no longer under evaluation for possible Ebola infection.

“The hospital acted in the best interests of the community, with an abundance of caution,” Rosen said. “We commend the facility for being prepared and remaining vigilant regarding the risk of Ebola.”

Health officials did not provide any other details about the patient.
