Officials said that the she was transferred in a highly precautionary process. Experts said that she appeared to be in good condition and it is unlikely that the virus remained infectious.

In line with normal procedures in cases such as this, we have identified a small number of close contacts of Pauline's that we will be following up as a precaution.”
