The 26-year-old nurse, infected with Ebola from Thomas Duncan, a Liberian citizen flew to the US in September. She was the one who took care of Duncan before he died on October 8. Nina was confirmed positive for the deadly virus on October 11, becoming the first person to be infected with Ebola in the United States.

Bentley, Nina's pet was taken to animal care after she was diagnosed with the disease. Bentley is negative for Ebola, but the incubation period lasts for 21 days has not ended until November 1. So, the nurse and her dog will probably reunite in the next few days.

WHO today plans to accelerate the preparation and deployment of experimental vaccines. The organization says hundreds of thousands of vaccines will be available in West Africa by the middle of next year.
