A doctor who treated Ebola patients in West Africa and was rushed to a New York City hospital with fever and nausea Thursday has tested positive for the deadly virus. Dr Craig Spencer, 33, who returned to the U.S. seven days ago from Guinea, is the first reported case of Ebola in the most populous city in America.
Spencer was admitted to Bellevue Hospital in midtown Manhattan on Thursday and is being cared for in isolation. Morgan Dixon, Dr Spencer’s girlfriend, is also in Bellevue Hospital, where she is being monitored for possible exposure to Ebola
