As a 'precautionary measure,' a Santa Barbara woman who was being monitored for Ebola was taken to an undisclosed Los Angeles area hospital Sunday night after displaying fever and illness, reports ABC 7.
"While this is a low risk situation and highly unlikely to be Ebola... a decision was made to take all precautionary measures and transport the patient to the hospital for observation, close monitoring, testing and implementation of full infection control measures," the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department said in a news release.
