Pray it's a false alarm, and this is just a touch of flu or some less alarming malady easily treated and cured. If positive, he's been in NYC for 10 days...God only knows how many contacts he's made.

UKDailyMail:
Dr Spencer is being tested for the Ebola virus as well as malaria, salmonella and stomach flu. The results are expected in 12 hours.


Quote: "On October 16, he checked in at a hotel in Brussels, Belgium, presumably on his return journey from Guinea to the U.S. "

Today is the 23rd . ..that is less than ten days ago.

US Shuts Down Tourist Visas For Israelis - No Travel Restrictions From Nations Affected By The Worst Ebola Outbreak in History

Never Again, Apparently Means, "Never Again Will I Care"
Tourist visa process cancelled until further notice, embassy announces.
From the Obama state Dept:
“Due to the current security situation in Tel Aviv, U.S. Embassy Tel Aviv remains open but is operating at reduced staffing until further notice, and has canceled routine visa application processing and American Citizen services,” the statement says. “Emergencies involving an American citizen and visa applications will be considered on a case by case basis.”
NOTE THAT THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION HAS SHUT DOWN TOURISM FROM ISRAEL, BUT 

THEY HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH TOURISM FROM NIGERIA, GUINEA, SIERRA LEONE, OR LIBERIA - THE NATIONS AFFECTED BY THE WORST EBOLA OUTBREAK IN HISTORY.
