A lot depends on just when the victim noticed possible symptoms. That none of the four late Mr. Duncan's American relatives in that Dallas apartment caught Ebola from him in the week+ between his onset of symptoms and their moving out of the apartment indicates that Ebola is not easy to catch, and particularly not until its late stages.

If this first New York City victim reported himself soon after he noticed his elevated temperature, NYC is very likely safe.

I Don’t think there is any way that Duncan’s family did not catch the Ebola virus unless they were isolating him... They knew he had it..

Though I agree about the nyc guy.. he was probably on top of his symptoms somewhat... so maybe not a huge likelihood of it having been spread..
