Pham received a blood transfusion from one of the doctors who recovered, this helped her recovery.

Nina Pham, the first nurse diagnosed with Ebola after treating an infected man who later died, was released from a hospital after being found free of the virus.
“I do not know how I can ever thank everyone enough for their prayers and the expressions of concern, hope and love,” an emotional Pham said at a press conference.
“It may be a while before I get my strength back,” she said.
Barack Obama met with Pham shortly after her release from hospital and gave the smiling nurse a big hug in the Oval Office.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Obama brought Pham in for a meeting to recognize her for doing her job at a Dallas hospital, where she fell ill while caring for an Ebola-stricken patient who eventually died.
