HOUSTON David Beckham England Jersey , Oct. 12 (Xinhua) -- A confirmatory test done by the U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) late Sunday proved a health care worker at a Dallas hospital, who cared for the deceased Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan, is positive for the virus.
Earlier in the morning, Texas health department issued a statement Danny Welbeck England Jersey , saying that the worker tested positive for Ebola in a preliminary test and that a second test was needed to confirm the diagnosis. The CDC finished the test and announced the result on Sunday afternoon.
"Today, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed test results reported late last night by the Texas Department of State Health Services' public health laboratory showing that a health care worker at Texas Presbyterian Hospital is positive for Ebola," the agency said.
The case marked the first person-to-person transmission of Ebola on U.S. soil and the second person diagnosed in the country.
The worker, reportedly a female nurse Danny Rose England Jersey , is believed to have contracted the virus as a result of a "breach of protocol," officials said. Authorities did not name the exact kind of breach, but epidemiologists speculate it could happen during kidney dialysis,respiratory intubation and removal of contaminated gears.
The nurse was in full protective gear when providing care to Duncan Danny Drinkwater England Jersey , the Liberian visitor who was diagnosed to be the first U.S. Ebola patient on Sept. 30 and died Wednesday.
Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the CDC, said in a press conference that the nurse's colleagues who also cared for Duncan could become infected as well because they might have the same kind of breach in protocol. Until the source of the caregiver's exposure is determined, Frieden said Daniel Sturridge England Jersey , the CDC is recommending that the number of health care workers who treat potential Ebola patients be kept to a minimum.
The caregiver is among 19 medical staff at the Dallas hospital who had close contact with Duncan after he was hospitalized on Sept. 28. They are asked to do self-monitoring and report to authorities once they find any signs of the disease.
Meanwhile, authorities are tracking those who had contact with the nurse after she began showing symptoms. It's believed that there is only one person who certainly had close contact with her and that person has already been quarantined.
Health officials are also keeping close watch on 48 people who may have had contact with the deceased patient Duncan. None of them so far have shown any signs of the disease. Their observation will be lifted on Oct. 19 when the incubation period of the illness is supposed to end.
Ebola is spread through direct contact with bodily fluids of an infected symptomatic person or through exposure to objects that have been contaminated with infected secretions. The virus can incubate as long as 21 days.
Duncan, 42, arrived in Dallas on Sept. 20 and fell ill several days later. He had already been showing symptoms during his first visit to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital on Sept. 25. But the hospital did not weigh his case until his second visit on Sept. 28.
Officials said the new patient was infected during Duncan's second visit to the hospital. Duncan was kept in isolation from Sept. 28 to Oct. 8 Chris Smalling England Jersey , during which time the nurse had "extensive contact" on "multiple occasions" with him, according to officials.
The nurse reported a low grade fever and was referred for testing Friday. She reportedly drove to the hospital. The preliminary test suggested the level of the Ebola virus in her was "low". She is in stable condition as of Sunday evening.

It?s not a secret that female fitness models are the hottest girls you can parade in town. Who can?t help but lust over their toned physique and tight booties? You surely want to date one of them but how do you spot them? I do have few solutions for you:
Hit the gym
Going to the gym will give you the highest probability that you will find one. If you need some boost in the physical department, be a regular in the gym and chances are, you might bump into a pretty fitness model. I am sure, as a guy Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain England Jersey , you have few effective pick up lines in mind. You may want to begin the conversation by asking how long had she been working out. If you?re more confident ask her what routines does she apply to tone her abs and her arms (Do not mention about her ass!). How about asking her some pointers on becoming more fit? At least you will have something in common.
Do not hint that you?re only there just to spot a sexy girl who you can ask for a date. Pretend to be very interested and dedicated on the treadmill. Don?t give out your primary intention of going to the gym by going near every lady in the room. Choose the one you like most and apply your ?hook up? strategies.
Visit a friend in the gym
If you do not like the idea of being in those sweat pants and plain shirts, you can still go to the gym and visit someone there whom you know. Of course, you would look more polish than the rest. Be aware with the people inside the room. If your eye caught a gorgeous girl who looks like a fitness model, ask her if she had seen that person you?re looking for. Yes it?s a lame excuse but at least you were able to start the conversation.
Join any sports related club
Don?t limit yourself into thinking that these women are only found in the gym whole day. They may be in the tennis club near you or having fun in the vo.
