After getting a restraining order against racings outlaw. What she says about claims of being a government assassin, only on gma this morning. The driver was armed with a blue steel handgun, six dogs are in the van. And dognapped. These six pooches stolen at gunpoint swiped in a doggie day care van. The desperate search right now for them and the men that stole them. And good morning, america. To our viewers in the west. We want to begin with that developing story in los angeles. The health scare at ucla meld call center where seven people have been infected with the potentially deadly superbug. 200 more at risk. Sececilia vega has the latest. Reporter george, good morning to you. This superbug is extremely dangerous and it can be deadly. Already linked two deaths here at this hospital. The cdc said they dont want to see it spread anywhere in this community. This morning, nearly 180 patients treated at uclas Ronald Reagan Medical Center warned they may have been exposed to a potentially deadly bacteria. Its a very potent virulent organism that can cause, you know, death. Reporter in a statement overnight the hospital revealing seven patients have tested positive so far and they say an internal investigation found the outbreak may have been a contributing factor in two deaths. The drugresistant superbug known as cre likely transmitted to patients by contaminated medical scopes. If its not cleaned out, quote unquote cleaned out appropriately, then it can spread from one person to another. Reporter ucla saying it g to the manufacturer. But that it is now using a decontamination process that goes above and beyond the manufacturer and national standards. The new fear, more confirmed cases of a bacteria that by some estimates can kill half of those infected. A similar outbreak from contaminated medical scopes infected more than 30 people in seattle from 2012 to 2014. Other confirmed superbug cases in cities like pittsburgh and chicago. In los angeles, federal, state and local Health Officials are now investigating sending out warning letters to those potentially at risk. Those letters offering patients a free athome testing kit to determine whether they are infected. These patients who are at risk whould have this procedure done between october and january, george. So many questions out here this morning about how this could have happened. And lets get answers from dr. Richard besser, thanks, cecilia, very much. You know, rich, you hear this word superbug, sounds so scary. What do we need to know . It is very concerning. This isnt the first outbreak thats linked to a scope. Cre is one of the worst bugs that we know about because youre almost running out of antibiotics but a couple points people need to know. Many people can have this in their body and it wont cause any problem. But you need to identify those people, one, because they could get infected but also if they come into the hospital, and most of these people are in the hospital a lot, you have to use strict contact precautions so they dont spread it to other people. I was so surprised to see that these scopes can transmit even though theyre sterilized. One of the things about it as theyve looked in many of these outbreaks they cant find a breakdown in any of those cleaning procedures so theres something going on here, whether they have to change the procedures or not, but theres a reason that scopes are spreading this in hospitals. Meanwhile, you got very positive news overnight on Breast Cancer, the treatment for Breast Cancer. Yes, so this is very exciting news. One in five women with Breast Cancer have a type thats called her2positive, very aggressive. What they found is, in treating women who have this cancer that is spread in their body adding one drug can extend their life by more than a year, to about five years, and with that very few additional side effects. And this could have potential for getting cancers earlier, as well. Yeah, what theyre finding is that if you can understand why a cell becomes cancerous and target that, you can come up with treatments like this that improve the outcome, improve lives and have far fewer side effects than many of the treatments were using. Love that encouraging news. Rich besser, thanks very much. Now to recordbreaking cold in the east. Temperatures more than 30 degrees below zero in some places. Take a look at this incredible picture. Imprint of the jeep after the driver pulls away. Just a sampling of how cold it is. Our extreme team covering it all. Lets start with you. Reporter 15 here.

And you can see the Niagara River and you can see all of this ice piled up there. The falls itself, over there, you can see those powerful falls, those arent going to freeze over because there is so much water. That powerful water coming up from lake erie.

Jeb bush slowly starting to build his case to be president making his first big Foreign Policy speech wednesday. Abcs jon karl is at the white house and, jon, the one thing jeb wanted to make very clear he loves his father, his brother and he even said he loves his mother but he is his own man. Reporter indeed, and, you know, being part of a political dynasty thats already produced two president s has obvious advantages but jeb bush wants people to know he is not just another bush. His brother was president. His father too. And if jeb bush runs and wins, wed have three straight republican president s named bush. So when it comes to family, jeb bush wants to make one thing perfectly clear. Look, just for the record one more time i love my brother, i love my dad, actually love my mother as well. I hope thats okay. [ laughter ] and i admire their service to the nation and the difficult decisions that they had to make. But im my own man. Reporter to make that clear bush acknowledged that his brother, who left office with some of the lowest Approval Ratings of any president , got some things wrong. There were mistakes made in iraq for sure. Reporter but its not that clearcut. Just five years ago, before he was thinking about running himself, jeb bush declared he would support his brother, quote, till death do us part. Im the only republican that was in office when he was in office as president that never disagreed with him and im not going to start now. Reporter and even now bush has released a list of 21 of his Foreign Policy advisers, all but two of them worked for either his brother or his father. Theres one place where jeb bush is more than happy to plan on the family name, and that is fundraising, hes tapping into the bush family Fundraising Network with great effect. In fact, lara, i expect that he will raise more money in the coming months than all of the other republican president ial contenders combined. And, jon, i expect you are right. We thank you so much and now lets turn to amy with this mornings other top stories. Good morning, everyone.

Was there any warning Something Like this could happen . No way because if i had thought for one second that he was still angry or crazy i never would have even come there.

Lets talk about the nascars reaction to this whole incident. As a sport and the statements that theyve made im very disappointed. You dont think in their reaction. What do you want and hope this all ends up being . Theres got to be a way to protect our victims better and the other thing for the sports to take a stand. Its the biggest highest rated shows that are out there. Why not take that as an opportunity to say, no more. Like the nfl has and say, we are not going to accept Domestic Violence in our sport.

Now the stars acting guru is sharing how cooper mentally prepared telling the Hollywood Reporter that her techniques helped the actor get through the inner layers of chris kyle and one way she helped him open up over the years of having him record his dreams for a week, which seems very its hard for me to remember my dreams but had him record his dreams for a week hoping one of his dream ss might come true this sunday if he dreamed about the oscars if he receives one at 7 00 p. M. Eastern here on abc. No. I always think i need to. Right away when you make up you might have a glimpse. Sometimes youd rather not. More in naps than at sleeping at night. Just dont talk in your sleep or your spouse will remember. Getting james bonds license to kill is like having a license to succeed in hollywood and rumors are swirling about who will be the next 007. Former bond Pierce Brosnan said in a recent interview he thinks idris elba would be a good fit. As the debonair super secret agent. Super Service Agent and he was great in luther. Hes incredible. I think thats a good choice or he said perhaps colin salmon, brosnans costar from the world is not enough and die another day. Very interesting choices but in the meantime, while we figure that out daniel craig isnt handing over the mi6 gadgets just yet. He is currently filming specter and is expected to complete one more bond film after that. Hard thing to give up. Right . Hard thing to give up. He does it well. Hes good at it. Yeah. But its a very physical role and i can see how guys after doing so many say, hey, let somebody else take over. I can think of someone who would be a good bond too. George would be incredible. Exactly what i was george, give us one of these. Just one time. Thats pop news. Thats as close as its going to get. You tried. Ginger has a check of the weather. Lets hear it. Yeah, ill get them started because it sounds i need the energy. We needed to stay warm. Whats your name . Mackenzie. Mackenzie says this is nothing. Shes from rochester, new york. And a lot of people are waking up and saying doesnt it kind of feel like siberia with this air . Guess what, places in minnesota are 42 below and the air is coming from siberia, so youre not you can actually say that without joking. Its called the siberian express. Its how that air moves over the pole and look at this the temperatures these are temperatures this morning, 1 for st. Louis. Nashville tied a record. Were going to check on that. Louisville certainly broke one. Detroit is 5 below this morning. Chicago did drop to 8 below and pittsburgh, 0 at this hour. Its like siberia and this is nothing. This is 15 degrees warmer than we are tomorrow so enjoy. All right. Good morning, i am meteorologist mike nicco with the bay area forecast.

Okay, lets get back inside. Turn about . Must be a dance or something. Good luck. Well see what hes going to say. Well kick off our heat index now. Kristen bell taking a strong stand on vaccines. The mother of two kids under 2 says she wont let friends hold her new baby unless theyre up to date on their shots. Abcs Abbie Boudreau has the story. Thats the beauty of blackmail. Reporter actress and mother of two, kristen bell not holding back about her provaccine beliefs. I just dont want to leave moaning on the table because you cant get past it. Reporter the house of lies actor telling the Hollywood Reporter she wont allow her unvaccinated friends near her babies. Bell who gave birth to daughter delta in december telling the magazine over the weekend that after the birth of her first daughter we simply said to friends you have to get a whooping cough vaccination if you are going to hold our baby. The whooping cough epidemic was on the rise and wasnt interested in taking any chances. Reporter the star adding she and her husband comedian shepard plan to do the same thing with their newborn baby telling the magazine its a very simple logic. I believe in trusting doctors, not knowitalls. The 34yearold straight talker taking her frustration to twitter recently retweeting this provaccine comment which says something for antivac parents 2 think about. If there were a peanut allergy vaccine created would you give it to your kids . The outspoken funny parents clearly seeing this as no laughing matter. For good morning america, Abbie Boudreau, abc news, los angeles. Thanks to abbie for that. Dr. Richard besser is back, and you approve. I do. We vaccinate for a couple of reasons. One is to protect ourselves or our children but also to protect those around us who cant be protected and children when theyre first born, theyre too young to get a lot of the vaccines, and theyre protected by those who are taking care of them being vaccinated. Were getting a lot of questions on twitter as you know and all coming out of the measles outbreak. Jennifer green wants to know, my 3yearold was vaccinated against mmr but how protected is she. After that first dose 90 of kids protected against measles. Not until the second dose do you get up to 99 . If youre in an area where measles is going on, you dont have to wait until youre 4 as long as its 28 days after the dose of the first you can get your second measles shot. Space it a little and brendas question, is there any merit to splitting up the 12month shots for babies . A lot of parents have been thinking about this. They dont like the number of shots a child gets and no one likes to give a lot of shots to a child but when you space them out what youre doing is saying that your child is going to be at risk of this disease longer than they need to be. Measles, the reason we wait until 12 months, before that there are protective factors from the mom that interfere with the vakts seen, so thats the earliest where you start to get vaccination. You start to get protection. If you wait beyond that youre putting them at high risk. Youre turning one bad day into four bad days. Exactly. Get them over with. Give them medicine for the pain and fever and then maybe the next visit they wont get any shots. Okay, and youre going to take questions throughout the morning on twitter. I will. To lara. Next on our gma heat index were going behind the beauty bar, putting those Makeup Testers at the cosmetics counter to the test. So, when you try out that sample lotion or the lipstick, you may actually be getting more than you bargained more and abcs becky worley is here with all the details. Im almost afraid to ask. What did you find . Good morning, lara. Makeup is notoriously hard to buy, should i get this foundation, or is this one the correct shade for my skin . Well, you should go to the makeup store and try them on to find out, right . Maybe not. Makeup, 50 shades of everything. Should i buy cranberry red or petal pink . Well, that distinction you can see, but with Makeup Testers, its what you cant see that could actually make you sick. We went undercover to six locations from highend Department Stores to discount retailers and swab testers, lipstick, mascara, foundation, and face creams to see if there are any worrisome germs and bacteria you may be putting on your skin. This says, try me. People have definitely tried it. I asked this salesperson how i could test a lip gloss color. You could try it. Okay. Reporter she used a separate applicator but from a tester off the floor that she admits others could double dip in. So we never know if someone does try it so reporter the salespeople generally practice good hygiene. We dont double dip. Reporter but another sent us home with samples of face cream that she dug out of the half empty tester that was out on the floor. Thank you. We thank you. Reporter yuck. We sent all our swabs to the Microbiology Lab at new yorkpresbyterian columbia. Makeup are all perfect opportunities for bacteria to grow. Reporter eew. Of the 25 samples, 9 tested positive for bacteria. It looks gross. Its mostly bacteria that we would find in everyday life that could be harmful to some people. But three other results got doctor wittiers attention. Would any of these make us sick . We found three samples that were only growing yeast so that was worrisome. If youre putting a product on your face that has yeast, that could definitely cause some kind of skin infection. Reporter she says infections like rashes and the dreaded pink eye. These three concerning results come from lotion samples. Imagine you rub it on in the store on your hands, and then a few minutes later you rub your eyes. Yikes. Dr. Wittiers advice, leave the testers alone. I would never use a free sample in any kind of makeup store, whether its highend, whether its lowend, you just dont know whos had their finger in there. That just sounds gross. You just dont know, but then how do you find out what color is right . How do you test . Well i just want to let you know i brought some here for you to test right here. No . No you dont want it . Good girl. You listened. Heres what you got to do. First of all, you know, there are a lot when you go to the beauty place, ask a sales associate. Thats why theyre there, theyre trained in hygienic practices, and they have their own makeup stashes behind the counter. Then you want to use singleuse pumps if youre going to try a foundation, not something thats like in a flat thing where you put your fingers in it. Yep. You want to definitely try and stay away from the eyes and the mouth. Thats probably the most important thing if you have to try something on. Try it on your hands. Try it on your hands but then dont use that lotion because then you rub it on your face. All right. A lot to think about. Great tips. Becky, we thank you and were going to michael now. All right. Thank you, lara. This week is all about hollywood with the oscars coming up. And if you want to feel like a star, these deals steals are for you.

If youre getting married but want to wear something more daring than the traditional white gown you are in luck. We have seen bridal inspired jumpsuits and mini depresses and the new trend vow to be even more daring. Heres Melissa Rycroft with a look. From elegant ball gowns to plunging v necks and color, color. Even crop tops are making their way down the aisle. And the latest bridal trend is offering brides a more casual route. Bridal shorts. If theres ever a day where a woman has to express who she is through her sense of fashion its her wedding day and its not always a dress. We headed to kleinfelds to check out the newest options with terry hall. How can you wear shorts rompers, all of that but still be a traditional bride. I dont think were necessarily going to see a lot of brides walking down the aisle with shores. I will see them wearing it at the reception or if theyre having a civil ceremony. Maybe their outfit they don when going off to their honeymoon. You can do it dressy or more casual. Do you think brides are pushing the envelope when it comes to their wedding day. I think so and well see more and more. No bride wants to have a who wore it better moment. With pinterest and social media everybodys pictures are everywhere and they want to look unique. We chatted with some bridestobe to get their take on going short for your big day. Were here talking about the new trend in bridal attire which is shorts, jumpsuits, all of that. I find shorts to be casual so not something that ever crossed my mind. Destination, maybe. Yes definitely. Definitely for a destination wedding. When you hear shorts you it doesnt have to be casual. It depends on the fabrication, artistic detail. The tops. The top, accessories. Shoes. Ooh. Lets play dress up. Then it was time to relive my big day. For good morning america, Melissa Rycroft, abc news, new york. Looking good meliss. So many options so joining us to tell us about them is terry hall fashion director of kleinfeld. Thanks for being with us. Thank you, lara. Excited to be here. Im excited to talk about wedding shorts. Never thought id say that. Its exciting. When people hear shorts they think very casual. I think youll find you can have a formal look with a nice fabrication in short, as well. We have one coming here right now. This is our first look. This is beautiful and lazaro. Initially a threepiece suit a pants suit. We decided to make it into shores because were seeing a trend so the kleinfeld alterations team made it into shorts. I think its fun and great for the afterparty or the reception. Maybe for a civil ceremony or the honeymoon. Fantastic but if you do decide to make your hook a little bit more custom make sure you dont skimp on the alterations and use someone who knows what theyre doing . If were going to go with shorts this is very looks like beautiful lace. Its i would say so. Otherwise it will be so laid back. Alencon lace and could put a chiffon bolero with it and dress it up with accessories and wear a statement piece are a necklace or make it as sparkly or dressy as you want. Maybe destination wedding. I think so. Beautiful. Theres one option america. Then another option thats really you said selling very well which is the crop top for your wedding day. Well you know these looks are about separates. Whats really great when the bride invests in them they can reincorporate them back into their wardrobe. This is moonstone. Haley page its called cory which i think is beautiful so this trop top could be reincorporated back into her wardrobe worn to a cocktail or new years eve which is absolutely stunning. I really love this look. Its very beautiful. Looks very expensive too, i might add. I want to ask you a question about the back because i particularly its lovely. Is this for a younger bride . I would say for the most at least a bride in really good shape confident about her body. But i think its really about the bride who feels like this is her sense of style. Brides now i think are pushing the envelope because they have more options than ever. Ten years ago it was always about wearing a white dress and more tra tigsal but thats where the options lie. Now they have options everywhere and have the chance to really express who they are. As you can see, options galore. Thank you guys.
