Craig Spencer, a doctor who worked with Doctors Without Borders in Guinea, tests positive for the virus. New York has its first case of Ebola after Craig Spencer, a doctor who worked with Doctors Without Borders in Guinea, tested positive for the deadly virus. He returned to the city on October 14, and was rushed to the Bellevue Hospital after exhibiting symptoms. The city’s health department has deployed disease detectives to “actively trace all of the patient’s contacts to identify anyone who may be at potential risk.” Ironically, 3 days before Spencer arrived in the city, New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport rolled out new screening measures aimed at halting the disease after the state of Texas had its Ebola cases.
