After being quarantined for 21 days, the five American health workers being observed for Ebola at the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha have been released Ebola-free.
The healthcare workers were flown to the U.S. from Sierra Leone, where they had been volunteering, in mid-March.
The hospital — which is one of the 55 Ebola treatment centers recognized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention — made the announcement via Twitter on Tuesday evening.
All five people have now completed their quarantine period for Ebola. Four of them have left the Omaha area.
