NEW ON CNN GLOBAL EBOLA UPDATE
(CNN) -- A doctor in New York City tests positive for Ebola. The European Union pledges more funds to fight the deadly virus. And a military response team begins training.
With multiple developments under way, here's the latest on the Ebola outbreak:
U.S. DEVELOPMENTS
Doctor tests positive
A Doctors Without Borders physician who recently returned to New York from Guinea has tested positive for Ebola virus, becoming the first diagnosed case in the city.
The doctor, identified as Craig Spencer, 33, returned to New York on October 17 after treating Ebola patients in Guinea, and developed a fever Thursday morning.

Vinson to be transferred from isolation
Texas nurse Amber Vinson, who is getting treatment for Ebola at Atlanta's Emory University Hospital, is steadily regaining her strength and her spirits are high, her family said. Doctors can no longer detect the virus in her body, and she'll be transferred from isolation, her mother said.
Pham getting better
The condition of Nina Pham, who, like Vinson, contracted Ebola after treating Duncan, has been upgraded from fair to good.
Bentley the dog doing well
Samples from nurse Pham's dog Bentley tested negative for the virus. More specimens will be collected before the end of the 21-day quarantine.
Go team begins training
A 30-member U.S. military team that could be called on to respond to new cases of Ebola in the United States has started specialized training at Fort Sam Houston in Texas. The weeklong training includes infection control and how to use personal protective gear.
WEST AFRICA DEVELOPMENTS
More funds
The European Union will increase its aid to help fight Ebola by $380 million to $1.2 billion, EU head Herman van Rompuy said on Twitter on Friday.
It had pledged 700 million euros, and boosted its pledge to 1 billion euros to fight Ebola in West Africa.
Rising toll
A total of 9,911 confirmed or probable cases, and 4,868 deaths have been reported in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, the World Health Organization said. Every district in Sierra Leone has reported at least one case.
Mali's first confirmed case
A 2-year-old girl in Mali has been diagnosed with Ebola, making her that West African country's first confirmed case, health officials said Thursday.
The girl came from neighboring Guinea, where the outbreak is believed to have started.
Her father died of Ebola, and she was taken to a hospital in Kayes after a nurse noticed her symptoms.
In addition to WHO experts already in the nation, the organization is sending additional experts to help Mali with the response.
Mali informed the WHO that local authorities are monitoring 43 people who came in contact with the infected girl, including 10 medical workers, said Tarik Jasarevic, a WHO spokesman.
Three-week monitoring for some travelers
All travelers coming to the United States from Ebola-affected areas will be actively monitored for 21 days. Also, all U.S.-bound passengers from Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea must land in one of the five U.S. airports with enhanced screening for Ebola: New York's John F. Kennedy International, Washington Dulles, New Jersey's Newark Liberty International, Chicago's O'Hare International and Hartsfield-Jackson International in Atlanta.
ASIA DEVELOPMENTS
No entry to North Korea
A pair of Beijing-based agencies that specialize in travel to North Korea say they've been told by their "partners in Pyongyang" that the nation won't allow international tourists to enter starting Friday, due to the threat of Ebola. It's not clear whether the restriction affects business travelers.
