The infected person in the U.S. is likely there due to travel from an area experiencing an Ebola outbreak, as the virus is primarily spread through direct contact with bodily fluids of an infected individual. International travel can lead to cases being reported outside endemic regions. The U.S. has protocols in place for screening and managing such cases to prevent further spread of the virus.
