Students at Southwestern College have been evacuated after a girl — who allegedly shared a flight with the Ebola-afflicted Texas nurse — vomited in class, reports say.

A building at the Chula Vista school where the girl fell ill shortly before 10 a.m. has been evacuated and taped off while awaiting San Diego County and Center for Disease Control officials, according to the San Diego 6 TV station.

The school has not confirmed that the unnamed student shared the flight from Ohio to Dallas as Amber Vinson, a nurse at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, who was recently diagnosed with the deadly Ebola virus after treating Thomas Eric Duncan.
