New York Ebola doctor 'LIED to police about his travel': They found out from his MetroCard
The Daily Mail ^ | October 29, 2014 | Chris Pleasance

The doctor currently being treated for Ebola in New York lied to police about travelling around the city for six days before he was quarantined, it has been revealed.

Dr Craig Spencer initially told officers that he had isolated himself in his Harlem apartment after returning from Guinea where he had been treating people for the illness.

It was only when cops checked his MetroCard and bank statement that they realised he had been roaming the city for nearly a week, visiting a sandwich shop, taking an Uber cab, and going bowling.

It was only when officers rang Dr Spencer and confronted him with the evidence that he confessed, according to the New York Post.

So, the CDC and White Hut are full of liars.

"Nina is different from the rest"

That she showed up at the White Hut argues differently.

So Craig & Amber are either stupid, irresponsible, selfish or naive for trusting the CDC.

Maybe all of the above.

“It’s as if he intended to spread the virus!”

He’s just getting a head start on Obola and Kerry’s plan, so relax, you’ll be well cared .. for while it lasts.

The CDC screening program is less accurate than a coin flip, but is costing millions. Government programs are not concerned with results, just in guaranteeing more funding next year.

Sometimes even though they have gone to Africa to help. I’m wondering if this is a one time quickly trip for resume enhancement?

Everyone trying to be the hippest person in the room. It’s gotten worse in the years I’ve lived in New York. Younger people are the worst.

This is a Sociopath Test:

The Sociopath will understand that the purpose of going to Africa to treat Ebola is the Victory Lap. In order to get the most out of the Victory Lap, it must happen during the incubation stage, so the Heroic Hero does not even know whether he will live or die. It is a narcissist’s dream. It is almost as good as contracting Ebola. Better even, because it does not involve that messy bleeding-from-the-eyeballs business.

The Normal Person will understand that the purpose of going to Africa to treat Ebola is to alleviate suffering and prevent the spread of disease. The Normal Person will accept quarantine, and would be embarrassed to be caught out in public during the incubation period, because protecting the public health is paramount.

So the Sociopath sees mandatory quarantine and an inhumane injustice that will prevent anybody from volunteering to treat the disease, while the Normal Person sees quarantine as a perfectly sensible policy that any reasonable volunteer would not only accept, but insist upon.

Which brings us to the President of the United States...

This is EXACTLY why I just love the pressure Odungo put on Cuomo, Christie, et al to not impose mandatory government quarantine on possible Ebola carriers but rather to leave it up to the potential CARRIERS to police themselves. Especially the so-called HEALTH professionals who should know better. So far, we've had that lady doctor spokesman sneak out of quarantine, the spoiled brat Kaci the Nurse kvetch her way out of quarantine, and now Dr. Spencer tooling around town shedding virus.

The best use for Odungo would be as a test animal to see how Ebola can really be spread.

I don’t know about the medical license, but the last I knew, lying to the police was a punishable offense.

Ebola makes you LIE.

And gives you the urge to take public transportation.
