Philly Testing 30 For EBOLA

The Philadelphia Health Department confirmed that they are monitoring approximately 30 people for possibly having the Ebola virus.

The folks in question are not showing any symptoms, but have recently traveled from affected areas.

The individuals, who have not been quarantined, are being asked to “self-monitor,” over a 21-day period. 

It is unclear when those being monitored arrived in Philly or how they traveled to the city.
