The American nurse who was the first person to catch
Ebola on US soil is now cured and has gotten a hug from President Barack
Obama for her troubles.
Nina
Pham, of the Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, contracted the disease
while treating infected Liberian, Thomas Duncan who arrived in the US
on September 20.
Ms. Pham was cleared of the disease on Friday, October 24, 13 days after testing positive.
She said:
"I
feel fortunate and blessed to be standing here today," she said.
"Throughout this ordeal, I have put my faith in God and my medical
team."
