Cafferkey was treated twice at an isolation unit at London's Royal Free Hospital after suffering an unusual complication of her first infection.

Pauline Cafferkey, a British Ebola survivor has been successfully discharged from the Royal Free Hospital.
The hospital said that Cafferkey had now been discharged, adding: "We can confirm that Pauline is not infectious. The Ebola virus can only be transmitted by direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of an infected person while they are symptomatic."
Experts warn that Ebola can cause ongoing problems in many survivors, although in most cases the problems seem to improve and become less frequent with time.
More than 11,300 people were killed before the World Health Organization declared last month that the two-year Ebola outbreak in west Africa was over, although Sierra Leone has since recorded new cases.
