    Ebola patient in NYC rode the subway and went bowling in Brooklyn last night.
    What could go wrong.

    If that isn't a New York Post headline, I don't know what is.

    Quite an obtuse thread title for a pretty big story. I honestly thought this was about some awesome new bowling app.

    Two of my friends worked with this doctor until they recently moved to another major metro and, not surprisingly, their social media feeds are blowing up with well-wishes, concerns and questions.

    If the cases in Texas caused the reaction they did, I imagine stories of an Ebola infected doctor flying, bowling and riding the NYC subway is only going to make the hysteria worse.

    Also, shouldn't this be in sports and news?

    I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that the other threads on the topic have gotten out of hand.

    I urge people to remain calm on this thread and use common sense. It's a fluid situation that we are still learning about. We need to let the proper authorities
    do their job.

    Apparently, the hot nurse is virus-free.
