FREETOWN, Sierra Leone (WJZ)-- Several Americans being monitored for Ebola could be coming to a Maryland hospital.

At least 10 Americans working in West Africa have been exposed to the deadly disease.

Four of them arrived at the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha yesterday.

The six others will be taken to either NIH in Bethesda or Emory Hospital in Atlanta.

The CDC says so far none of they are not showing any symptoms.

Another American aid worker with Ebola is already receiving treatment at NIH.

That worker is listed in serious condition.
