Two people who recently travelled to West Africa have been quarantined in Manhattan's Bellevue Hospital, according to the New York Daily News.

From the Daily News:

Both patients were picked up at a New York City address and both are believed to have recently returned to the city from Africa, the sources said.

The two — both believed to be adults — have been quarantined at Bellevue Hospital.

EMS crews who dealt with the patients have also been isolated as a precaution, the sources said.

Over the weekend, a second person—a 26-year-old nurse—was diagnosed with Ebola in Dallas. Her diagnosis came just four days after Thomas Eric Duncan—the first person to have the disease on U.S. soil—died in a Texas hospital.

If confirmed, the two quarantined patients would be the third and fourth patients diagnosed in the United States and the first diagnosed in New York.

UPDATE 3:58 pm: From the Daily News:

Ana Marengo, spokeswoman for the city Health & Hospitals Corp., which oversees Bellevue, insisted, "There are currently no patients suspected of having Ebola at Bellevue."

But Ian Michaels, another Bellevue spokesman, would not answer whether the patients brought there by EMS have been cleared — or whether they have been moved to another facility.
