On Oct. 23, Dr. Craig Spencer was confirmed to have contracted the often-deadly Ebola virus. He had just returned to New York City after treating patients in Guinea for Doctors Without Borders and, upon spiking a fever, was rushed to Bellevue Hospital. Emergency workers who dealt with Spencer apparently got their official protocol correct because in the weeks since his initial diagnosis no one else has contracted the disease. On Monday afternoon, Nov. 10, "The New York Times" confirmed that Spencer is now Ebola-free and scheduled for release this afternoon. The plan to release Spencer has not been publicly announced, but was confirmed Monday by two people familiar with his treatment but who declined to be identified because they did not have permission to release the information. A spokeswoman for Bellevue did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
