Teresa Romero is the first person in Spain that has recently been infected with the Ebola virus without having traveled to Africa. She contracted the deadly virus after an infected Spanish priest was flown out of Africa for treatment and Romero took care of him in a Madrid hospital. Unfortunately, Excalibur, the nurse’s dog, was euthanized today by Spanish authorities because they feared the dog could be a carrier of the disease, since the pet lived with the infected nurse.
