1) In my comment, I was referring to the index patient who wanted to be discharged but the hospital refused to.
2) The person referred to in the article was one of the nurses who attended to the index patient. After it was confirmed that the index patient had Ebola, all those who came into contact with him (including the medical personnel who treated him) were isolated. One of them (the nurse in the article)'broke off' and went to another city. When the Government found out, they brought her back to Lagos in a 'special vehicle'. Some of the other medical personnel (who were in isolation) later tested positive for the virus and some of them died.
