"Somebody arrived, a doctor, apparently, wearing a protective suit, who took care of the person and took his body temperature, and that's it. We waited for about two hours in the plane."
The country has been on alert since a Spanish nurse became the first person outside Africa to become infected.
The Ebola outbreak has killed nearly 4,500 people, most of them in West Africa.
