A Cuban doctor who contracted Ebola in Sierra Leone and was flown to Geneva, Switzerland, is confirmed to be in a stable condition after nearly two days of treatment.
Felix Baez Sarria walked off the transport plane in a protective suit and mask after landing late Thursday night. On Saturday, the Geneva University Hospital, where he is been treated in an isolated area from the rest of the Hospital, says "his health status is stable, although he remains in a serious medical condition."
Dr Baez is a member of the medical team Cuba sent to Sierra Leone. He contracted the disease when he rushed to help a patient who was falling over.
