CNN reports that:

A doctor who has played a key role in fighting the Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone is infected with the disease, according to that country's Ministry of Health. Dr.Sheik Humarr Khan is being treated by the French aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres also known as Doctors Without Borders in Kailahun, Sierra Leone, Tim Shenk, an agency spokesman, told CNN.

Until falling ill, Khan had been overseeing Ebola treatment and isolation units at Kenema Government Hospital, about 185 miles east of the capital Freetown.

Citing patient confidentiality, Shenk declined to provide additional details about Khan's condition.

I'm reluctant to discuss a person's confidential medical condition. However, this is a matter of public interest.
