A 35-year-old man, who showed Ebola-like symptoms, was kept at an isolation ward at Sawai Man Singh Hospital here before he left for Delhi.
“The suspected patient, identified as Mohammed Rehan Khan, was suffering from fever and blisters. He first reported to a private hospital last evening from where he was referred to the medical ward at Sawai Man Singh Hospital,” Head of Medicine Department of the hospital Dr C L Naval said.
“Last midnight, the patient left the isolation ward with his relatives to Delhi after submitting a letter of leave against medical advise,” Naval said.
The patient, who belongs to Vidhyadhar Nagar area in the city, had recently visited Vadodara. A preliminary clinical investigation indicated that the patient had no contact with any other Ebola patient nor he travelled abroad, Naval added.
