Tests for a Yale graduate student who developed Ebola-like symptoms returned negative Thursday, the Yale Daily News reported.
The patient was being treated in isolation at Yale-New Haven Hospital.
The student had recently returned from a research trip to Liberia, where he was studying Ebola. He and his research partner had initially agreed to sequester themselves for 21 days after returning to the United States, but Yale physicians and administrators decided this was unnecessary.
“We feel we are well prepared to handle an event like this. We have been preparing for the potential of an Ebola patient for weeks,” Yale-New Haven Hospital President Richard D’Aquila said at a press conference on Thursday afternoon.
If confirmed, this would have been the fourth case of Ebola in the United States.
Two nurses in Dallas were diagnosed with Ebola; they had treated a man in Texas who later died of the diseases.
In addition, Princeton resident and NBC chief medical correspondent Nancy Snyderman violated a voluntary Ebola quarantine last week.
