The agency runs Bellevue Hospital Center, where Spencer has been undergoing treatment since he was brought there nine days ago.
The HHC has said Spencer is receiving therapies that have been effective in treating Ebola patients at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta and at the Nebraska Medical Center.
Spencer is the only confirmed Ebola patient in New York.
