A Harlem doctor who recently treated patients in Africa, tested positive for the deadly disease after he was rushed to Bellevue Hospital with symptoms, including a 103-degree fever, sources told The Post.

Spencer had spent Wednesday night bowling in Williamsburg. He used an Uber car service to get to and from the Brooklyn neighborhood.

Hipster bowling hot spot The Gutter was closed last night due to “unforseen circumstances.”

NY Times reports doc said he started feeling sluggish Tuesday. Went bowling Wednesday, fever spike of 103 on Thursday. Looks like he’s at day ten on your chart, which is about right as it’s reported he returned ten days ago.

Given his “sudden high fever” he must be about 10 days in. So he was bowling on day 9.

You mentioned this isn’t about politics and I came back with an answer that politics is playing a huge role in this. They think that not quarantining countries will keep it from spreading and other ridiculous things.

I was not ridiculing the victim. I was ridiculing Obama and the others in the District of Criminals for doing what they can to help spread it.

The doctor is a LIB idiot. He risks NYC residents getting ebola because he couldn’t self-quarantine before returning to this country? Then the fool takes transportation and goes bowling????? What a complete idiot.

Or did he know exactly what he was doing?
Was it intentional?

IIRC, the hospital notes say Nina Pham saw Duncan on his first and second visits to the ER.

I always thought that NYC was the city in Revelation where all the merchants were crying because it was destroyed. If God sent ebola there, it could be to do an evac before the big one.

Ok I learned this:

He had been home about 8 days when he first started having symptoms.

Tuesday he began feeling sluggish.
Wednesday he took the subway, bowled, then took a taxi home.
Thursday he woke up with 103 temp.

This blows my mind that he was so irresponsible as to go bowling. He knows the timeline. He knows the symptoms.

The question is how contagious was he..I guess we will find out...

I bet. People in and out. Just hailing a cab on the street. It’s not like you have to call to get one.

Come on Docs make a plan. Have some standards.

That's the thing. The CDC spokesman (Dr. Frieden?) said that, after the missteps in the Dallas case, the protocols have been greatly improved and dissiminated to all hospitals.

So, I guess it's back to the drawing boards again for ebola protocols.

That is exactly what increased glutathione levels will do. It will become the big driver in increased collagen production and vitamin C at those levels is the spark.

Good for you!

“Spencer normally works out of Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital”

So both he and the two nurses all work at PRESBYTERIAN hospitals?

Starting to look like a pattern here. I’d suggest checking on the Jesuits.
