He arrived in what's called PPE gear, which is personal protective equipment, and the staff at Mid-State Medical Center was wearing the China Panoramic Elevator same attire. Once inside the hospital, the patient was evaluated by a number of doctors and nurses.

"There is no doubt the staff has been told. They know what to ask. They know what to do. They are all prepped on how to handle a patient with Ebola," Dr. Daniel Kombert, the director of medicine at Mid-State Medical Center, said.

The patient was transported by ambulance to Hartford Hospital .

Two buildings at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, including a dormitory, were evacuated after two pipes burst Monday morning.

According to the UConn Fire Department, when a pipe bursts it triggers an alarm, which leads to an evacuation.

One pipe burst at the Student Union around 11 a.m. and the other was reported at the McMahon Residence Hall. Officials said sprinklers near the entryways broke, however they said they were unsure whether it was the actual cold or the failing of the pipe heater that led to the cause.

Both buildings were evacuated.

"The China Elevator alarm went off, thought it was the kitchen but apparently, pipe burst, (its) pretty cold today," said student Matthew Lynch, who was evacuated from the Student Union Monday morning.
