We want to state at the outset there is no reason for New Yorkers to be alarmed, Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a press conference on Thursday night at Bellevue Hospital Center, where Dr. Craig Spencer is being treated. But the image of two NYPD officers disposing protective masks and gloves into a garbage can on the sidewalk near Spencers apartment has caused some concerns, at least online. In a video published by the Daily Mail and broadcast on CNN, the unidentified officers can be seen discarding a mask, gloves and yellow police tape in the garbage can in Harlem, where the 33-year-old doctor lives. Earlier, police sealed off the entire block in front of Spencers building on West 147th Street. A spokesman for the NYPD told Yahoo News that the officers never entered the building. The officers responded to the perimeter of the incident in order to redirect traffic and escort EMS to Bellevue Hospital, NYPD Sgt. Brendan Ryan said in a statement. At no time did the officers come in contact with the male patient or enter the apartment building. Nonetheless, the footage perplexed several viewers. letsgocare.org
