Ebola Nurse Nina Pham’s Boyfriend Rumored Admitted To Hospital With Ebola-Like Symptoms?

Fact checked

Rumors are swirling that Nina Pham’s boyfriend is already in isolation.  IBTIMES reports:

Rumors swirled Sunday that Nina Pham’s boyfriend was “secretly” admitted to a hospital with Ebola-like symptoms, though the reports were not officially confirmed. Pham was the first person to contract the deadly virus on U.S. soil after she treated Liberian Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan. National fear rose that the Ebola diagnosis rate would grow in the U.S. after Pham contracted the infection, especially if she had spread it to her unidentified boyfriend.

Jeff George, the CEO of Alcon, a Fort Worth, Texas company that specializes in eye care products, sent an email to staff saying someone at the company was being monitored for possible Ebola symptoms after coming into contact with the Texas Health Presbyterian nurse who contracted the fatal virus, as per the protocol of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
