The health of the 44-year-old Spanish nurse with Ebola has worsened, a hospital official said on Thursday, without giving further details.

“Her clinical situation has deteriorated but I can’t give any more information due to the express wishes of the patient,” said Yolanda Fuentes, an official at the Carlos III hospital where six people including the nurse, Teresa Romero, are in isolation.

A medical official with the U.N. Mission in Liberia who tested positive for Ebola arrived in the German city of Leipzig on Thursday to be treated at a local clinic with specialist facilities, authorities said.

The unidentified medic infected in Liberia is the second member of the U.N. mission, known as UNMIL, to contract the virus. The first died on Sept. 25. He is the third Ebola patient to arrive in Germany for treatment.

“The man will be treated on an isolation ward… with strict security measures,” said Dr Iris Minde, head of Leipzig’s St Georg clinic in a statement. “There is no danger of infection for other patients, relatives, visitors or the public.”
