This doctor had the means to have a blood test BEFORE he even left Africa.

That is the ONLY test that will weed out these cases....before they get here.

You want to go to the USA....have a blood test and get cleared.

Imbed the results in the passport.

So you have to put off your trip for a couple days....Too damn bad!!

de Blasio said. "New Yorkers who have not been exposed are not at all at risk."

This guy's an absolute genius, eh?

for getting treatment immediately upon showing symptoms

Immediately is a poor word choice. HE said he felt bad for two days. For Joe Blow on the street, that would be nothing but for a doc who worked in the hot zone? Come on! At a minimum he should have self-quarantined until he could rule out Øbola. NOT head out to public venues using public transportation. Nope, the praise is NOT warranted.

Three people sounds pretty small for a man who traveled all over NYC. If the virus gets bad enough by mutation, we may have to surrender NYC to the lizard-men and the apes.

I am so confused here. What is it with these doctors and nurses...really...WHAT IS THEIR PROBLEM?!

Yeah, I self-quarantined and then went all over the city and even bowling for an evening, even though I wasn’t feeling quite right....I flew across the country to pick out bridesmaid dresses...I took a cruise all under quarantine....

Is one of the early symptoms of Ebola and loss of common sense? I know they can become “runners” later in the disease, but I chalked that up to stress on the body ...but does it affect the brain earlier than we think?

I cannot believe that infectious disease doctors and nurses are this flippant about a deadly virus? Something else has to be at work here and it may mean forced quarantine for people coming from affected countries...or heaven forbid a travel ban!

"The city's health commissioner, Mary Bassett, said Spencer's fiancee and two friends had been quarantined but showed no symptoms."

Why should they worry? /s

Seems odd that the guy rode all over town on trains and apparently went bowling and less than 24 hours laters his cells are bursting from a viral infection. Sure seems like there would have been some early symptoms that this guy would have uniquely qualified to recognize.

.. health officials stressed that the nation's most populous city need not fear his wide-ranging travel in the days before his illness began.

Yesterday news conference, don’t recall if it is Blassio or Cuomo or someone but it was stated that the doctor performed “an attempted self quarantine” WTF!! This doctor was STUPID.

De Blasio said all city officials followed "clear and strong" protocols in their handling and treatment of him.

Heading off to ebola-ravaged Africa? Have at it. Just don’t come back. Ever.

“President Barack Obama spoke to Cuomo and de Blasio Thursday night and offered the federal government’s support. He asked them to stay in close touch with Ron Klain, his “Ebola czar,” and public health officials in Washington.”

That’s about as direct as they can be that their ONLY CONCERN now is damage control prior to the election, as that hack doesn’t know a damn thing about medicine.

""New Yorkers who have not been exposed are not at all at risk." "

All new yawkers have been exposed to the idiocy of their leftist leader and hence are at risk for all sorts of consequences.

“Health officials say the chances of the average New Yorker contracting Ebola, which is spread through direct contact with the bodily fluids of an infected person, are slim.”

Ever ride the subways in New York City. Unlike Los Angeles and just about every other city that has tried to become “world class” in the past few decades, people in New York ACTUALLY USE the subway.

Last time I was there, I was standing and made direct contact with a stranger, putting my hand over hers while holding a vertical pole on the subway (by ‘accident’...actually it was by accident, even though she was quite hot...but probably infected with something, being New York). She moved away...but no one has denied that I Ebola can be spread that easily.

"We want to state at the outset that New Yorkers have no reason to be alarmed," de Blasio said. "New Yorkers who have not been exposed are not at all at risk."

If one person in New York comes down with Ebola..de Blasio will be a dead man.

Meanwhile, there's the News of the Stupid. Mayor Bill de Blasio remains in denial and tells New Yorkers “don't worry, be happy”. I wonder if this genius will still wear the happy face when Ebola hits City Hall?

Well, Obama finally got the next Ebola patient zero he apparently wanted. I wonder if this will be the one to light the Ebola fire in the U.S.? If not, plenty more in West Africa where this one came from.

BTW, think of the freak-out coming this winter when flu and Norovirus hit. Think they’ll have enough ambulances with police escorts for the millions that get sick with those this winter? Will they shut down every building, factory, bus, subway, or shopping center utilized by someone suspected (or proven to have) Ebola?

“Now, I am not on the ballot this fall,” Obama stressed. “... But
make no mistake: My policies are on the ballot — every single one of them.” (Including unrestricted West African air flights.)

King Barack Hussein Obama, October 2, 2014, Northwestern University

Thank you Obama, for your “fundamental [Ebola] transformation”. Now would you please do something to prevent more Ebola cases from arriving in the U.S. from West Africa? Obviously your current policies are not working (assuming your goal is to actually keep Ebola OUT of the U.S. as once again I cannot tell if you are unbelievably stupid or just plain evil).
