New York Confirms First Ebola Case

 

The doctor, Craig Spencer, was transported to Bellevue Hospital Center and put in isolation ward at the same time as investigators sought to review every step he had taken over the past several days. 

The 33-year-old doctor returned from treating Ebola patients in Guinea on October 17, 2014, and developed fever, nausea, pains and fatigue on October 23, 2014, Thursday.

He was taken to the isolation ward of New York’s Bellevue Hospital Center. 

Nigeria has been declared officially free of Ebola after six weeks (42-days) with no new cases by the World Health Organization (WHO).
