The New York City doctor who is being treated for Ebola should be moved out of the isolation room at Bellevue Hospital Center soon, the president of the New York City Health and Hospitals Corp. said Thursday.

Dr. Craig Spencer, 33, was diagnosed late last month. His condition was upgraded over the weekend from serious to stable. He has been in isolation since Oct. 23.
