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'

That is a real classy looking place.

Like something you’d find in Pittsburgh.

It defies credibility that this guy meandered through this itinerary without malice aforethought...

I said earlier, he is an idiot, or he did it on purpose.

I have been wondering (and wife MD) if there is a neurological component to the ebola virus. We keep observing over and over again bad judgement as a precursor to known symptoms.

Just imagine you walk into your favorite sit down restaurant. You are seated at a table. Next to you is another table with three people. Your wife speaks to you so quietly you have to read her lips. She’s saying “Don’t look behind you, but, you’ll never guess who I see sitting at the next table?” You say, “Who?”

Her eyes widen, then narrow into slits. “I see Dr. Nancy Snyderman, Dr. Kent Brently, Dr. Nick Sacra, and Dr. Craig Spencer, all of them involved with the Ebola Virus in some manner. All four of them laughing, and whooping it up with a few carafes of Champagne and shrimp. It looks like their having some kind of Support Group Meeting. You say “Oh Really?, You know, I’m not really all that hungry right now, and your cooking is so much better anyway. Let’s go home!”

Ebola makes you insane. Messes with your mind before the fever comes and is measurable (my theory)

Not a theory. In the book The Hot Zone it tells how Ebola victims essentially become apathetic and lethargic. They really aren't thinking right.

If the growing rat population in NYC turns out to become a vector for Ebola (like the fruit bat in West Africa) the USA will live with this forever. Ironic that Dr Frieden was at one time in charge of the growing rat population of NYC.

Except he felt it was more important to go after smokers and the big gulp. He was the perfect Obola appointment.

Freiden is fruity in his own way. He came down on NYC smokers in nazi like ways and was so proud of himself and beaming in photos with Mayor Bloomberg. Not that I like cigarette smoking but this self-important lunatic went to extremes on smokers

On Ebola infected people entering America? He could care less because his CDC friends love getting these human guinea pigs over here to test poke and prod and put on their resume

We may need to start building borders around these clowns. They’re going to get us all killed.

I understand that doesn’t happen until after symptoms....if at all as it doesn’t seem to be all that common until toward the end.
