Good afternoon. As you may have heard, a patient was transferred this morning from Methodist South Hospital to Methodist University Hospital to undergo testing for the Ebola virus. It’s important to know that this patient did NOT meet all screening criteria for the virus, but we chose to be abundantly cautious and take this patient directly to a special isolation room, separate from the main hospital. Doctors have established an alternate diagnosis, but until Ebola is definitively ruled out, we will follow the strictest procedures for patient well-being and caregiver safety. Memphians can be proud of the expertise and teamwork that all have demonstrated, including local and state health authorities and emergency medical personnel. We are committed to keeping you informed and ask for your patience as we work to provide you with confirmed information. Well share additional information as we learn more.
