Fear and panic spreads as Ebola doctor's 10-day itinerary reveals he rode three subway lines, ate out, went bowling and took an Uber taxi before testing positive for deadly virus

Doctors Without Borders physician Dr. Craig Spencer visited a busy Williamsburg bowling alley Wednesday night just hours before becoming ill The 33-year-old took an Uber car to Brooklyn from his home in Harlem He tested positive for the deadly virus, New York's first diagnosis

Ebola panic is swarming New York City tonight as it emerged infected doctor Craig Spencer rode the subway, visited a crowded bowling hot spot and took an Uber cab just one day before he was rushed to the hospital with a 103F fever.

Tonight, the Doctors Without Borders physician tested positive for the deadly virus 10 days after returning from Guinea where he was treating patients.

But it has emerged that instead of steering clear of crowds, the 33-year-old last night took the subway from Harlem to Williamsburg, where he visited The Gutter, before taking an Uber cab home.

Earlier that day, he went on a three-mile jog and took the 1 train to the High Line garden - a popular tourist destination - before eating out at a restaurant.

Meaning that residents in at least two dense New York City neighborhoods could have been exposed: Williamsburg and Harlem, where Spencer lives.

New Yorkers have flooded Twitter in panic revealing their fears after visiting the bowling alley and taking the subway at the same time.

One exclaimed: 'He took the subway from Harlem to Brooklyn?!?! YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE ENTIRE CITY SUBWAY SYSTEM TO DO THAT'

Another said: 'Now that Ebola is here, I aint takin the subway no more...'

And one wrote: 'Son Ebola found it's way to NY? I'm sick'

True. But he probably thinks of himself as a wonderful person. I’m not judging him, just guessing. Charity begins at home and all that. He’s going to need a reset before he can apologize.

This wasn’t incompetence, this was intentional.

Nobody can convince me otherwise.

The left is becoming more and more unhinged, it’s as if it’s a mass insanity.

What is the motives?

Hero to save the planet?

But how.

Spread Ebola so a vaccine will be developed or spread Ebola to wipe out the population?

Who knows, could be either one or something else.

There is a theory that influenza and measles virii cause people to want to be around other people in the early, most contagious stage of these diseases.

I am not surprised. These  virii has a better chance of replicating if there is something in it that induces this togetherness feeling.  The virii got this way via evolving.
