DALLAS (RNN) - A patient is being evaluated for “potential Ebola Virus disease … based on the patient's symptoms and recent travel history,” a Texas hospital said Monday.

Texas Health Presbyterian in Dallas issued a statement saying the patient is in “strict isolation” and the hospital is following Centers for Disease Control recommendations to keep patients, staff and visitors safe.

No other details about the identity or condition of the patient were immediately available.

The hospital says it expects results from the CDC Tuesday.

The Centers For Disease Control has confirmed it. I'm watching the news conference right now on my local TV channel.

This is an awful sickness and the spread of it appears to be getting more out of control. I did hear some news of vaccine cure I am hoping it can decrease deaths as most patients are dying.

It is also the first confirmed case of Ebola in the U.S. Ebola is very serious and not easily treatable. Hopefully the patient will heal if the virus got caught early and if that patient responds well to treatment.

I've received word that there's a potential case being monitored at Howard University Hospital in DC, and an inmate in Cobb County, GA now being reported, stay tuned.
