Anyone know where this patient is from, sex, age?

The University of Maryland Medical Center is in Baltimore. Patient could be from anywhere. The medical center's twitter feed says the patient is isolated and being assessed.

A Maryland hospital has received a potential Ebola patient, a facility spokeswoman said.

A patient was transferred to University of Maryland Medical Center at the request of state health officials and was being treated in isolation, a spokeswoman said Monday night.

The spokeswoman would not say where the patient was transferred from or whether they had recently arrived in the country.

Ebola patient Nina Pham was transported to the National Institute of Health in Bethesda in a high-profile case recently, but was discharged over the weekend after being cleared.

Maryland announced Monday plans to quarantine and ban from public transit those who travel to the state from three West African countries where Ebola continues to spread.

This story will be updated as more information becomes available.

Only one week to go until elections and this crap keeps on screwing up the dems campaign efforts! What, oh what is the head dem to do? I'm certain the amnesty supporters see the challenges this presents...

Wouldn't NIH be a better idea?

I would think one of the local military bases. Then again, Obama holds those for VIPs and contributors only.

We're going to run out of luck soon and have another positive case of Ebola. Every day there seems to be more and more potential cases popping up. With the exponential growth in West Africa and the lack of commonsense in our government its just a matter of time.

That's awesome news, I have an appointment at the VA there - about 3 blocks away- in a couple days.

Wouldn't it be something if it were one of Nina Pham's caregivers?
