A preliminary Ebola test has come back positive for a doctor who recently traveled from West Africa and is being isolated at a New York City Hospital, according to an official briefed on the case.
 
The doctor, who has been identified as Dr. Craig Allen Spencer by New York government sources, was placed in an isolation unit today at Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan after reporting Ebola-like symptoms. He had a fever and gastrointestinal symptoms when he was transferred to Bellevue, according to the hospital.
 
Spencer was working for Doctors Without Borders, according to the organization, which did not identify him by name but said he had a fever this morning.
 
Law enforcement sources said the 33-year-old Spencer recently returned from Guinea, one of the West African countries currently battling an Ebola outbreak. He traveled through Brussels, Belgium, and arrived at JFK Airport, law enforcement sources said. He arrived back in the United States on Oct. 17.

Sad that has happened to someone who has devoted his life to world problems. Those drs. And nurses that go around the world are true hero.
 
But please tell me why he did not stay put when he got home?
Was going for a run, taking the subway, riding in a uber car, and going bowling fun? What about his rental shoes? Who wore them after him? What about the ball on his sweaty hands? Did he have hang nails? Etc etc etc.
Why not a special flight for these people?
They may know you can not get it easy, that does not make eight million people feel safe.

@daisy girl:
I think everyone is questioning being a doctor, why did he not isolate himself for the 21 days.

I can not answer that. Only they know why they are doing what they are doing. As I said in earlier post, I'm a hermit. I like my home, I work from home and spend time between my art studio, my garden and taking care of my family and animals. Doesn't leave me much time to go tramping around town.
Now if I still lived in nyc I think I would be pretty **** off at the whole situation. You don't have choices when you have eight million people squeezed on an island.
Besides they keep saying, we're not gonna make the same mistakes Dallas did. I call bs because they are making them by not having a special flight and complete isolation as in quarantine. If you take your animal to another country it can be under quarantine for up to six months and humans won't do it for 21 days. Shows who the real weakest link on this planet really is.

lol to the OP,
This post has been officially high jacked. (Sorry had to.)
 
I'll make a post to you on it so others can join in if they want.
 
okay everyone carry on.
 
Yes these drs. Need to quarantine themselves to show us they know what they are doing.
As far as what I have seen ( I faint at someone getting a Stitch) nobody knows what they are doing. Or even what protocol to run with.
If you ask me I say, stop all international travel from anyone from those parts. Lock it down, and any American that wants back must be quarantined for 60 days. That's right 60 days in a designated building, and vitals being checked daily.
Anyone coming directly from the reason is quarantined in another building. Kinda sounds like Ellis Island. Btw no one said they can't go to Mexico or Canada and come in.
