Its reported a person believed to have contracted Ebola is being held in isolation at Sweden’s Uppsala University Hospital, a regional authority said.

The patient is believed to have visited Burundi in central Africa before returning home. The hospital’s chief medical officer said the young man had been in Burundi for around three weeks, and was exhibiting classic symptoms including vomiting blood.

Symptoms of the highly contagious and often deadly virus can take up to three weeks to appear.

The authorities said the hospital in Enkoping where the patient was first admitted had its emergency room shut down and the staff who treated the patient were “cared for”. The patient was eventually transferred to an infection clinic in Uppsala.

Burundi borders the Democratic Republic of Congo, which has been fighting an Ebola outbreak. The disease has killed 356 of the 585 people known to have been infected.

The epidemic in a volatile part of Congo is the second worst ever, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The largest outbreak was one in 2013-2016 in West Africa, where more than 28,000 cases were confirmed.

Pestilence is foretold in the Biblical prophecies as Matthew 24 to be a sign of the Last Days.
