A 33-year old New York Doctor who
recently returned from Ebola-hit Guinea in West Africa has tested positive for
the disease.
Dr Craig Spencer, treated Ebola
patients while working for the charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) in the
country. He left Guinea on 14 October, and returned to New York City on 17
October. But on Tuesday he began to feel tired and developed a fever and
diarrhoea on Thursday.
Suspecting it could be the virus,
he immediately contacted medical services and was taken to the city's Bellevue
Hospital, where he is being kept in isolation.
