Craig Spencer was halfway through the recommended 21-day self-monitoring period for those at risk from the Ebola virus when he went bowling in Brooklyn.

.

The 33-year-old physician had been working with Doctors Without Borders on the Ebola outbreak in Guinea, one of the three west African countries worst affected by the virus. He finished his work there on 12 October and left the country on 14 October, flying home to John F Kennedy airport in New York via Europe. He arrived in New York on 17 October.

.

In the days since returning to his apartment in Harlem, he was careful to check his temperature twice a day as part of his monitoring process.

.

But at some point between returning home from Guinea and experiencing symptoms, officials said, Spencer took a three-mile jog, despite being on a self-imposed limited-contact regime.

.

Certainly, it seems likely that he thought he was in the clear by Wednesday evening, when he decided to go with friends to Gutter, a bowling alley in Williamsburg.

.

He did, authorities confirmed at a press conference on Thursday, bowl.

.

During the day on Wednesday, he may have walked on the High Line a popular tourist attraction on the west side of Manhattan built on a former elevated railway and may have also eaten at a restaurant near there, according to officials.

.

It is known for sure that he travelled on three subway lines the 1-train, the A-train and the L-train as well as an Uber taxi. Epidemiologists were using information gathered from Spencers New York Metrocard which records the entry points to subway journeys and his credit cards, to determine his movements around the city.

.

Uber confirmed that Spencer had been given a ride Wednesday evening, and told the Guardian that it had contacted the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the New York department of health, who had told it that neither the driver nor any of his subsequent passengers were at risk.

.

Spencer had no fever when he left his apartment on Wednesday, and continued to check his temperature. He told health authorities that began to experience fatigue on Wednesday night, but was otherwise feeling well.
