NEW YORK (Associated Press) — A doctor who became New York City's first Ebola patient was praised for getting treatment immediately upon showing symptoms, and health officials stressed that the nation's most populous city need not fear his wide-ranging travel in the days before his illness began.
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio
Mayor Bill de Blasio and Gov. Andrew Cuomo urged residents not to be alarmed by the doctor's diagnosis Thursday, even as they described him riding the subway, taking a cab and bowling since returning to New York from Guinea a week ago. De Blasio said all city officials followed "clear and strong" protocols in their handling and treatment of him.
"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."
The doctor, Craig Spencer, a member of Doctors Without Borders, reported Thursday morning coming down with a 100.3-degree fever and diarrhea. He was being treated in an isolation ward at Manhattan's Bellevue Hospital, a designated Ebola center.
Craig Spencer
In appearance on CNN on Friday morning, the governor said Spencer "presented himself" to the hospital when he had a 100-point-3 fever ... not 103 ... as has been reported."
New York City's health department on Friday confirmed that the doctor's temperature was 100.3.
Cuomo said Friday that the doctor "obviously felt he wasn't symptomatic" when he went out "in a limited way."
"When you're a doctor you know you're not contagious until you're symptomatic," Cuomo said on NBC's Today show. "As soon as he had a fever he presented himself to a hospital."
The governor, in an appearance on CNN's New Day, said there was no reason to fear riding the subway, and he would do so Friday.
One commuter said he first learned of New York's first Ebola case on the subway on his way to work Friday morning.

It's "a scary thing" because there are "a lot of germs in New York," said Chris Thompson who was riding the L train, one of the lines Spencer rode after returning home from West Africa.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which will do a further test to confirm the initial results, has dispatched an Ebola response team to New York. President Barack Obama spoke to Cuomo and de Blasio on 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.
Health officials have been tracing Spencer's contacts to identify anyone who may be at risk. The city's health commissioner, Mary Bassett, said Spencer's fiancee and two friends had been quarantined but showed no symptoms.
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. Someone can't be infected just by being near someone who is sick with Ebola. Someone isn't contagious unless he is sick.
Bassett said the probability was "close to nil" that Spencer's subway rides would pose a risk. Still, the bowling alley was closed as a precaution, and Spencer's Harlem apartment was cordoned off. The Department of Health was on site across the street from the apartment building Thursday night, giving out information to area residents.
Still, the news rankled some New Yorkers. "Oh my gosh!" said Charles Kerr, 60, as his friends gathered on a Harlem sidewalk murmured. "This changes the situation. The guy must be coughing, sitting against people. Now you've got to think."
Kerr said he wasn't afraid, but he wants a stricter approach to anyone coming from the Ebola-affected countries.
"Stay in their apartment," he said. "Especially now, when it's so rampant. Especially if they know they've been in contact."
The epidemic in West Africa has killed about 4,800 people. In the United States, the first person diagnosed with the disease was a Liberian man, who fell ill days after arriving in Dallas and later died, becoming the only fatality. None of his relatives who had contact with him got sick. Two nurses who treated him were infected and are hospitalized. The family of one nurse said doctors no longer could detect Ebola in her as of Tuesday evening.
According to a rough timeline provided by city officials, in the days before Spencer fell ill, he went on a 3-mile jog, went to the High Line park, rode the subway and, on Wednesday night, got a taxi to a Brooklyn bowling alley. He felt tired starting Tuesday, and felt worse on Thursday when he and his fiancee made a joint call to authorities to detail his symptoms and his travels. EMTs in full Ebola gear arrived and took him to Bellevue in an ambulance surrounded by police squad cars.
Doctors Without Borders, an international humanitarian organization, said per the guidelines it provides its staff members on their return from Ebola assignments, "the individual engaged in regular health monitoring and reported this development immediately." Travelers from Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone must report in with health officials daily and take their temperature twice a day, as Spencer did. He also limited his direct contact with people, health officials said.
Spencer, 33, works at New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center. He had not seen any patients or been to the hospital since his return, the hospital said in a statement, calling him a "dedicated humanitarian" who "went to an area of medical crisis to help a desperately underserved population."
Four American aid workers, including three doctors, were infected with Ebola while working in Africa and were transferred to the U.S. for treatment in recent months. All recovered. Health care workers are vulnerable because of close contact with patients when they are their sickest and most contagious.
In West Africa this year, more than 440 health workers have contracted Ebola and about half have died. But the Ebola virus is not very hardy. The CDC says bleach and other hospital disinfectants kill it. Dried virus on surfaces survives only for several hours.
Spencer is from Michigan and attended Wayne State University School of Medicine and Columbia's University Mailman School of Public Health.
According to his Facebook page, he left for West Africa via Brussels last month. A photo shows him in full protective gear. He returned to Brussels Oct. 16.
"Off to Guinea with Doctors Without Borders," he wrote. "Please support organizations that are sending support or personnel to West Africa, and help combat one of the worst public health and humanitarian disasters in recent history."

Longtime G-Unit engineer and producer Ky Miller chopped it up with Eric Diep of XXL recently about how he linked up with 50 Cent, his Mudd Monkey, Inc production company, G-Unit's forthcoming EP The Beast Is G-Unit and much more.
XXL: You don’t just do engineering and producing. It seems like you do a whole bunch of different hustles.
Ky Miller: I make money. I get paid for engineering. Whatever else I can do, I always do [for money]. But sometimes, you gotta wear different hats to just be able to provide more services. To provide everything.
You have this production company called Mudd Monkey, Inc. When did you start that?
Back in 2008, 2009. It got to the point to where basically I was a producer and engineer. I guess through working with so many different people from 50, I decided I wanted to be more than a producer. I decided to start a production company to basically to try and find new talent and develop new acts. That’s what I’ve been doing. It’s kind of a step up from being a producer. Being a producer, you gotta shop your beats. You gotta hopefully get placements. You gotta sit and wait. I just told myself one day, “Hey, you know. Rather than just send my beats out and try to get placements and all of that, let me try and create my own situation.”
How do you balance this and your role at G-Unit?
My duties to 50 and G-Unit, that’s first and foremost. Doing that, being in that frame of mind. 50 first. G-Unit. It just helps me develop myself more as an individual [who] takes in and learns a lot about the business. What it takes to develop an artist.
Has 50 given you any pointers or advice?
He knows I have a production company. You know, you see it in the credits. Ky Miller for Mudd Monkey, Inc. I’m still like a producer and engineer within that company, as well as developing the artists. It’s just about building the knowledge, ’cause as time goes by, as you get older, what are you going to do next? It’s what you fall into next. The next phase of your life.
How many songs have you made with G-Unit?
You gotta understand there’s been mixtape records. Album records. Records that never came out. It’s definitely in the hundreds and hundreds of records. I can’t even sit down and think about it, you know?
How long did you say you were with 50 officially?
I would say around 10 years. Through that experience, I got a chance to work with several other artists. Everybody like from Carl Thomas to LL [Cool J] to Jazmine Sullivan. Trey Songz. But Trey Songz liked to engineer himself. Just in a good space to be able to work with different people.
50 gave me the opportunity to work with different people. Just to see how different artists like to record. To record an R&B artist is different than recording a hip-hop artist. Sometimes, a singer likes to hear reverb on their voice while they are singing. Or when they do different layers, or when they do harmonies and stuff like that. Some like to hear what they are doubling in the right ear and hear them live in the left ear.
For you, what is the most notable project that you’ve worked on?
Every album that I engineered had its own identity. I remember when I engineered [an album] when M.O.P. was on G-Unit. The energy with those guys. That was an incredible space. The reason it’s hard for me to answer a question like that is because I don’t just work for these guys. I’m a fan. Just being in that situation is just incredible. 50 Cent, G-Unit. Just all those people. It’s just incredible.
What’s the progression like for 50 since you’ve worked with him in the beginning?
All I can say about that is that it goes beyond music. As much things he’s got going on right now, he still has the same passion for music. All the other business deals that he’s doing. The movies and all of that. He still has that passion for music. That never went away.
Do you think Kidd Kidd is a good addition as the new school for G-Unit?
Absolutely. I just like to hear uniqueness in artists. Just people who wanted to come to the game and rappers…they good but they sound like somebody else. You know what I’m saying? To me, Kidd Kidd didn’t sound like anybody else. He doesn’t. Or anybody in G-Unit for that matter. When it comes, it’s gonna be like brand new.
How many albums from G-Unit were actually made in the studio at 50 Cent’s mansion?
The basis for most of 50’s albums—even though he travels around a lot—he’s all over the place, actually, working on his records. That’s a base. It’s the big house. We call it the Big House Studios.
Can you describe the vibe of the studio?
The best word to describe that is kind of like home. For artists, they’re most creative when they are in their most comfortable space. For 50, it would be the Big House. For the other people, it’s just where they are comfortable at and used to the sound. With that, it’s not about the location or the equipment. It’s just about the feel and the vibe that the room gives. You see all the plaques and stuff in there. For 50, it may be dope to be sitting in a comfortable space while you’re writing or being creative. And you look around and you see those plaques of your accomplishments before. It would motivate anybody to see those accomplishments around you.
What can fans expect from The Beast Is G-Unit EP?
Expect a lot of the same. There’s close to 50 records done. You can imagine how hard it was for 50 to pick what the first EP was going to be. So like, the second one, just as intense. Just as hard to pick. Everything for me is spur of the moment. I’m happy to be there to take that ride and try to make it happen.

Brand Nubian MC Lord Jamar sat down with VladTV where he shared his views on Chris Brown recently tweeting that he believes Ebola is a form of population control, with Jamar agreeing with his statement, saying people may not believe him because he's Chris Brown, but that he is absolutely right that it is a way to get rid of "undesirables" which he believes starts with Black Africans.
Jamar also believes that nano colloidal silver is an simple and inexpensive cure for Ebola, but that it will never be marketed as such because pharmaceutical companies would lose out on the money earned from treating the disease.
