"They were part of the same group that have been coming back slowly", said CDC spokeswoman, Jennifer McQuiston.
The two health workers brought back to United States on Wednesday have not tested positive to the deadly Ebola virus but might have been exposed to a colleague who contracted it and is critically ill.
The critically ill US health worker is presently being treated at a biocontainment unit run by the National Institutes of Health in Maryland, McQuiston said.
The US healthcare workers were employed by the aid group, Partners in Health, however their names have not been divulged.
