The real heroes are the veterans who defend our nation, not
doctors that do not self quarantine themselves after they come back to America from
being in areas with deadly diseases, such as Ebola.

| Craig Spencer |
Earlier today applause greeted New York Dr. Craig Spencer as
he spoke publicly for the first time after being cured of Ebola.
Wearing a blue sweater and smiling during the press
conference at New York's Bellevue Hospital, the Spencer seemed to be the
picture of health after less than a month since he was diagnosed with the
deadly Ebola Virus.
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (Democrat) welcomed Spencer back to
his "normal life."
Spencer stood beside the mayor. De Blasio urged him to give
the mayor's wife a hug. Then, de Blasio and Spencer hugged.
It's a "good feeling to hug a hero," de Blasio
said.
However Craig Spencer is not a hero. He, through his selfish actions, put millions
at risk when he returned from Africa.
His first few days had Dr. Spencer riding the subways and
going bowling even the day he became visibly ill with the virus! His actions created the term Ebowling.
If Dr. Spencer was truly a hero, he would have done the
right thing and quarantined himself for 21 days to make sure he did not bring
the virus back with him. He did not take
this necessary protocol and because of this, he is not a hero and should not be
treated as such.
The real heroes are those that are going over to Africa to
fight Ebola and are quarantining themselves to not get the general public
contaminated.
I do hope that Dr. Spencer is aware that the virus is still
in him for at least another 3 months. In
men the virus remains in their reproductive system for 3 months and the virus
can still be spread through the exchange of fluids.
