GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Fourteen people are currently being actively monitored for the Ebola virus in Michigan, according to the Michigan Department of Community Health.
The report shows one person is under direct active monitoring, which means they encountered a higher risk of exposure and must be monitored more closely.
The monitor level is based on a person’s travel history to one of the countries in West Africa widely affected by Ebola.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends active monitoring for people with any level of potential exposure to Ebola. Public health workers are responsible for calling the person once a day to check on their symptoms over a 21-day period.
