A Liberian man and his daughter were taken to a local hospital after their Newark-bound flight landed Saturday afternoon due to concerns that they may have been exposed to Ebola, officials said.

A 35-year-old male passenger and his daughter, both of whom reside in Liberia, had been taken to University Hospital in Newark for treatment and for testing, but the CDC reported that they were not presenting with symptoms of Ebola, Port Authority spokesperson Erica Dumas said.

"CDC reports that the subject and daughter are not exhibiting symptoms of Ebola exposure," Dumas said.
