According to local media, the unidentified man had developed high fever and stomach pains and was taken to Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm on Sunday to receive medical care.
"Yes, we have a suspected [Ebola] case, but it's not confirmed," a spokeswoman for Stockholm County Council said on condition of anonymity.Communicable disease specialist Ake Ortqvist said, "The risk that this is an Ebola case is minimal, but we are handling this with extreme care."

Comment: This is criminally ignorant to say that the virus only spreads via blood or other fluids, when lots of information show otherwise. Perhaps the specialist is ignorant of this and/or just sticks to his preconceived ideas about the virus or he is knowingly spreading lies. Lies that will only result in many more people being exposed to the virus.
More than 100 healthcare workers have died of Ebola and these are people who take the outmost precautions, when dealing with infected Ebola victims and yet they all died.
The question about Ebola that no one can answer
Ebola is a form of hemorrhagic fever whose symptoms are diarrhea, vomiting and bleeding.
According to the latest figures by the World Health Organization (WHO), some 3,070 infections and over 1,550 deaths of the disease have been reported in West Africa.
Ebola has mainly affected Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone, with Liberia reporting most deaths among the other countries.
The virus spreads through direct contact with infected blood, feces or sweat. It can be also spread through sexual contact or the unprotected handling of contaminated corpses.
It remains one of the world's most virulent diseases, which kills between 25 to 90 percent of those who fall sick.
If this isn't propaganda then I don't know what is.
First of all - look at the original source PressTV - they never titled their article like that.
Second - Your title is implying that it's spread to Sweden even though there is no confirmation of this.
The article titled the way it is titled is no better than the the way the main stream media does their irresponsible reporting.
