US missionaries leave hospital after Ebola recovery
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 21 - 08 - 2014

Two US missionaries have left a hospitalin Atlanta after what one of them termed a "miraculous" recovery from the Ebola virus.
Dr Kent Brantly and health worker Nancy Writebol had recovered from
the virus and posed no public health threat, doctors at Emory
University Hospital said Thursday, dpa reported.
They had been airlifted to the United States August 2 for treatment
at a special infectious disease unit after first receiving the
experimental treatment ZMapp in Liberia.
Brantley, appearing healthy stood next to his wife as the medical
team announced his recovery, and declared himself "thrilled to be
alive, to be well and to be reunited with my family."
Brantley and Writebol were the first Ebola patients to be treated in
the United States, prompting initial fears about the international
spread of the disease.
