Scottish nurse, Pauline Cafferkey, who contracted Ebola while working in Sierra Leone has made a complete recovery and been discharged from hospital.
Ms Cafferkey is now free of the virus after more than three weeks in hospital, where she was critically ill for a time.
The British nurse who was on the brink of death from Ebola, left hospital tonight saying she is "happy to be alive."
Pauline Cafferkey spent almost a month in a special isolation unit in London, after the disease struck when she returned from voluntary work in Sierra Leone.
Now completely free of the virus, she paid tribute to the hospital staff who saved her life.
