A nurse who fell ill after returning from Sierra Leone has arrived at a specialist infectious diseases unit in London.

Meanwhile, a second person in Scotland is being tested for Ebola, although the healthcare worker recently returned from West Africa is said to be "at low risk" of having the virus.

It is understood that worker had been staying at a youth hostel at Torridon in the Highlands and was being transferred to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.

Another patient at the Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro, has been placed in isolation and is also being tested for Ebola. 

The Scottish nurse who has become the first person diagnosed with Ebola in the UK is receiving specialist medical care at the Royal Free Hospital.

The woman returned to Scotland after a spell working in Sierra Leone and arrived at Glasgow Airport on a British Airways flight at around 11.30pm on Sunday. She was showing no symptoms at the time.
