The husband of a Spanish nurse diagnosed with Ebola has appealed for the couple's dog to be spared as authorities say it should be put down.
Teresa Romero's husband Javier is among those now being monitored for the disease.
But he's issued a plea for the couple's dog to be spared after authorities said it should be put down, sparking a protest outside the building.
In Madrid about 100 people gathered outside the Spanish Health Care Ministry to protest over the government's handling of the case.
They're demanding the resignation of the Health Minister.
Officials say they still can't confirm how Romero contracted the disease.
She'd been helping two priests who caught Ebola in Africa subsequently died after repatriation to Spain.
