A 'smidgen' has come to New York! :cheersmate:
A doctor in New York City who recently returned from treating Ebola patients in Guinea tested positive for the Ebola virus Thursday, becoming the city’s first diagnosed case.
The doctor, Craig Spencer, was rushed to Bellevue Hospital on Thursday and placed in isolation while health care workers spread out across the city to trace anyone he might have come into contact with in recent days. A further test will be conducted by the federal Centers for Disease Control to confirm the initial test.
While officials have said they expected isolated cases of the disease to arrive in New York eventually, and had been preparing for this moment for months, the first case highlighted the challenges surrounding containment of the virus, especially in a crowded metropolis.

A doctor who treated Ebola patients in West Africa has tested positive for the virus in New York City, according to officials.
A law enforcement official and a city official confirmed to the Associated Press that preliminary tests have confirmed the first case in the city.
The New York Times was the first to report Dr. Craig Spencer had tested positive for the virus after he was rushed to Bellevue Hospital in New York Thursday.
Dr. Spencer tested positive for Ebola looks like. Not good.

Good job, asshole.

Who, this guy or Obama?
Both choices are valid.

The stupid asshole that decided to go sight-seeing around NYC.
I'm getting news alerts that there's an Ebola case at the hospital down the street. I'm not buying it, but I'm glad it's down there and not up here.

The meeting came as the administration continues to tighten health security measures in the U.S., but stopping short of instituting a ban on travelers from West Africa, where the Ebola outbreak has killed more than 4,500 people in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.
How many new cases will it take to institute a ban ?

There are reports that the guy had a slight fever and was sweating the day before he went bowling!
Haven't been able to confirm that yet.

North of 50, unless one of them is directly related to a major Dem politician.

Obama won't ban travel until other countries ban travel from the US. It will take Ebola being declared an epidemic in the US for Obama to more.

A little close to home considering half the homes I work in are owned but NY citidiots!

He went jogging, took two subways, a train and a taxi the day before too. So if ebola sweat was like having dandruff, he would have spread it to half of NY already.

Maybe owebuma can be shamed into doing the right thing. But I doubt it.

That doctor and his wife are a couple of do-good arrogant NYC liberals. They live in West Harlem and are both registered Democrats.

Ebola doctor ‘lied’ about NYC travels
http://nypost.com/2014/10/29/ebola-doctor-lied-about-his-nyc-travels-police/
The city’s first Ebola patient initially lied to authorities about his travels around the city following his return from treating disease victims in Africa, law-enforcement sources said.
Dr. Craig Spencer at first told officials that he isolated himself in his Harlem apartment — and didn’t admit he rode the subways, dined out and went bowling until cops looked at his MetroCard the sources said.
“He told the authorities that he self-quarantined. Detectives then reviewed his credit-card statement and MetroCard and found that he went over here, over there, up and down and all around,†a source said.
Dr. Craig Spencer has some explaining to do. Of all persons, he should know better.
