Dallas, TX - A Dallas hospital is on high alert after a patient is believed to be infected with the Ebola virus.
A representative at the hospital says it is isolating a patient who is showing signs of having the Ebola virus.

Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas said that the patient's symptoms and travel history suggest the patient may have Ebola.

They would not say where the patient traveled, but the Ebola virus has now killed more than 3,000 people across West Africa.

Presbyterian hospital says it's taking all measures to keep its doctors, staff and patients safe. The hospital expects to receive preliminary test results later today from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Earlier this month, President Obama announced that extensive assistance will be provided to West Africa to combat the Ebola outbreak.

The US has already committed more than 100 million dollars to fight Ebola, but that total does not include the additional 88 million dollars in funding the President is asking congress to approve.
