i have just now CALLED THIS "news" STORY A HOAX, because I find no other news support for it and the "reporter" and"cnews source" appear nothing more than a hoax. It popped up in a google "EBOLA UPDATE" SEARCH among other VALID NEWS SOURCES.
All the "news stories" at the "source" are listed as authored by someone using the name "Deborah Grace"

This is UTTERLY CRAZY!

I hope he went home so that he could get Colloidal Silver and Turmeric 95% Curcumin treatment if they are NOT USING THAT NOW. I do not know that they are giving him ANY actual medication.

Doctors in Nebraska who are treating the man who caught Ebola while working to fight the disease in Liberia are unsure he will recover. On Sunday, they said that while he is making some progress it is not yet clear he will survive.

The man, Dr. Rick Sacra, age 51 became infected with the Ebola virus arrived at the Nebraska Medical Center on Friday and was rushed immediately to the specialized isolation unit designed to treat highly contagious, deadly infectious diseases such as Ebola. Dr. Phil Smith of the treatment team said that he is more alert and the team is encouraged so far.

Sacra, a doctor from Westminster, MA spent 15 years of his professional life practicing family medicine at a local hospital in Liberia as part of the charity SIM, which is base out of North Carolina. Two other Americans working alongside him to care for local Ebola patients also became infected with the disease.

The three were part of a major care effort to treat the growing epidemic of Ebola in the underserved areas of Africa where the disease is spreading. So far more than 2,000 African natives have died from the outbreak, a statistic that the SIM team wanted to slow and hopefully, eventually stop. Ebola has not been confirmed as the reason for all the deaths since the outbreak began but any number of Ebola deaths is too many when treatment is available and people are willing to administer it.

Sacra has since left the hospital but nothing else can be said about the future of his condition.

Washington - An American infected with the Ebola virus is receiving an experimental medication as part of his treatment at a hospital in Nebraska, his doctors said Sunday.

Dr Phil Smith, medical director of the bio containment unit at the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, described the medication as "a research drug." Speaking at a news conference, Smith said he couldn’t give any further details about the drug, but said it wasn’t the experimental drug ZMapp that was used to treat two other Americans who recovered last month from illness caused by the Ebola virus.

There is no ZMapp available, Smith said. There currently is neither an immunisation against the Ebola virus nor an approved medicine.

The patient is Rick Sacra, a 51-year-old doctor who was working in the West African country Liberia as a missionary when he tested positive for the Ebola virus. He arrived at the university hospital in Nebraska on Friday. His doctors said they were encouraged by his progress, but said it was too early to say whether he will recover.

"He is still stable medically and the improvement that we are seeing is that he is more alert, asking questions about his course and what he’s doing here and what we are doing to help him," Dr Angela Hewlett, associate medical director of the unit, said at the news conference.

I do not know WHAT TO THINK!
This OP is ABSOLUTELY THE ONLY STORY ON THE INTERNET CLAIMING HE HAS LEFT THE HOSPITAL, ALIVE BUT SICK!!!!

Maybe it is some kind of depraved hoax?
If so, then some people are becoming utter trash.

I'd call that an inadvertent error by the reporter, except that it's the title of the article. Makes no sense.
