Well get the update from the pentagon very soon. Of the 3200 u. S. Troops, tom, that are due to set up in west africa, build hospitals and help with care. I understand only 200 there now. Were talking about ramping up. The administration said it does not support banning flights from west africa. In part because of the ongoing screening at the airport and because it could hinter the ability of getting doctors and supplies into the country. Additional screening steps are likely here at home. From the front lines of west africa to the front door of america and all out push to get ahead of ebola. On monday the president announced additional screening is coming from passengers arriving from the ebola hot zone. 3200 troops will head to west africa to build 17 field hospitals, air lift supplies, and train local health authorities. It takes focussed, speed, for us to get ahead of the transmission rate. We have a plan. We have the people. And were moving fast and hard in order have a success we need. Also moving fast Health Departments and hospitals across the u. S. From seattle we most certainly have a number of false alarms. To miami. The hospitals are taking protections every day. The cdc continues to remind 5,000 hospitals nationwide of the ebola symptom flowchart. First warning sign temperature of 101. 5 in someone that returned from an ebola infected area. Isolate the patient, staff should wear gown, face mask, and gloves and notify the cdc. 150 people each day come into this country from west africa. Usually through the four airports we mentioned. Thats why theyre going to focus on the airport. As it relates to the hospital we recently saw a study that said 80 of the nurses feel like they havent yet had the proper training or communication to be prepared for an ebola case. All right, tom. Thank you very much. Now to nebraska where ashoka mukpo is now being treated in a bio containment unit at the nebraska medical center. Nbc john yang joins me from oklahoma omaha. Tamron, we expect to know perhaps as early as today which of the experimental drugs theyll be using in his treatment. It could be the same one they used here for dr. Richard sacra earlier last month. It could be the same one theyre trying in texas. Either way, both the doctors here and ashoka mukpos parents are confident about the prognosis in part because they caught his symptoms so early. In a way he said im going get through this. I think its a combination of emotions. Weve been very afraid. On the other hand were very confident. The major complaint or a big complaint that ashoka mukpo has right now is nausea. During the day yesterday he felt well enough to ask for something for dinner. When the food arrived he didnt feel well enough to eat it. Doctors told us that his symptoms could get worse as the disease runs its course before they get better. Thank you very much, john. In dallas the 85yearold mother of the critically ill ebola patient Thomas Duncan arrived yesterday. She drove 15 hours just to be near her son or as close as she can get. Hes in confinement and isolated away from his family. He cant have contact. Shes there now in texas. Doctors are now giving duncan an antiviral drug that is now being tested on animals. Sara joins me now with an update in dallas. What details have we been given regarding the new antiviral drug theyre testing . Good morning. The drug is administrated via pill form twice a week. Duncan was in critical but stable condition. A downgrade from a couple of days ago when he was in serious condition. He was given the medication on saturday. Were waiting for an update which will be given in a couple of hours about how hes doing today. Officials continue to monitor the 48 people who had some type of contact with him. Most people develop symptoms of ebola 8 to 10 days after expo sure. Today is day nine which makes today and tomorrow critical. None of the 48 people have shown any signs or symptoms of ebola. Dallas schools, meanwhile, taking a proactive approach at the five schools where students who had contact with duncan attended, they have installed fever scanners. They are up and running today and were told theyre being staffed by nurses. They are touchless, which means that minimizes the risk of spreading infection from student to student. Attendants took a hit dropped by about 5 when news came out. Today theyre almost back to normal with attendance there. Its important to note that Officials Say that the only way you can become infected with ebola if you are exposed to someone exhibiting active symptoms of the illness. Meaning the fever cscanners area proactive approach. The key to shutting down the spread of ebola is careful monitoring of the 48 people known to have contact with duncan. To the fight against isis. Were learning more today about the teen from suburban chicago who was arrested at Ohare Airport for allegedly attempting to travel to syria to join isis. 19yearold Mohammed Cahn shocked his neighbors. Its shocking. Its very quiet unassuming town. I would never have thought anything about that kid. Their a hard working family just like us. Its really shocking. I cant believe that this whole world is fighting like this. Developing in syria isis fighters are moving closer to seizing a key city along the border with turkey even as the u. S. Led coalition launch new air strikes today against isis targets. Richard engel joins us live by phone along the turkey board we are syria. Let me get your reaction to yet again another american accused of trying to go over and join forces, isis forces in this battle. You talk with people who have children, for example, in europe as well who tried to do this. So still an attractive target for some of the young people. Yes, it is still attractive for some people who get recruited online. They watch the isis propaganda videos, they become believers. It was written that a caliphate has been established and the Islamic State and its their duty to join the battle that isis sometimes tries to portray as romantics, historic battle, its a religious battle. Were not talking very large numbers. Maybe a dozen or so of americans who are actually fighting with isis, but those are the ones we know about. And the numbers of europeans citizens are much higher. With the latest report they arrested at chicago Ohare Airport a man trying to come to turkey and make his way down to where i am now along the syrian border. I think it wasnt surprising. Fortunately its a pattern weve seen of people going online and becoming attracted to the group. Were not talking large numbers. I believe it was around a dozen that the u. S. Government has identified u. S. Citizens who may have gone over to join isis. Lets talk about the developments today as isis fighters are moving closer to seizing a key city along the border with turkey, even we just lost richard. We lost our connection to richard engel. I apologize for the technical problem there. Hopefully well be able to get him back on and get more details on the ongoing battle up near the board we are turkey and syria. Developing now antiterrorism police in london. We got this information in. Have arrested four men suspected of plotting terrorist attacks. Scotland yard this information coming in, men ages 20 to 21 were arrested in predawn raids just this morning. All across london. All of them are being held for questions. Well continue to follow developments on them. We have richard. Are you there, richard . I am. Sorry about that. Im right on the turkish syrian border. Im looking right now at the town of kobani. There are what seem to be u. S. Air strikes taking place on isis targets around kobani. When the air strikes happen, some of the people who are gathered in the area who watch kobani. People are distraugt that isis advanced on the city they will start cheering. They want to see more american air power in action. There is, however, a timing issue here. Isis already made deep advances in the area. Im watching it right now maybe coming too late to actually dislodge isis from the area. The reason why i think the connections are so bad. Im on the border area and theres air strikes going on. Okay. And, richard, from your reporting and our colleagues, the fighting is so close to your point to where you are you could even in some cases weve had video of Turkish Military personnel not active in on the ground but so close and in a sense just at a waiting point near where the fighting is taking place. Oh, thats the part that is frustrating for the people here. Im looking right now on my left is the city of kobani where there is streettostreet fighting between syrian fighters, kurdish fighters trying to defend their city against isis, and if i pan my gaze a little bit to the right im looking at the turkish tank, which is parked on a hill overlooking the city. So if you are in this city, and you are under attack, and isis militants are moving street to street and in cases beheading people and threatening to behead. You can see a few hundred yards away Turkish Military vehicles that could come to your aid are not. You can imagine how frustrating it would be. Many people say that turkey is deliberately not doing enough to help. And, richard, you use the word frustrating but im sure for many of the people who stand there wondering if they will survive or what brutally continue with isis. It seems that would cause beyond frustration, but anger and a flurry of other hostile reactions toward turkey and even the allies who continue with these air strikes there that youre witnessing. Okay, im told we lost richard again. He is there at the border and he can actually hear the latest round of air strikes by the u. S. Led forces there. And that is why were having difficulty with our connection with him. Certainly i know you understand that. Were moving on.

After going bed with what appeared to be pink eye. He is the first confirmed death definitively caused by the virus. Which is infkted more than 500 people in 43 states since august. A send precooler from elis school is being monitored for the virus. Stirs fears for parents in hamilton township. Its in the area now. Before it was a little further away. Now its a reality. Joining me now is the mayor of hamilton township. Thank you for skroining us, mayor. Our thought the are with your community and all of those families as we mentioned 40 separate states dealing with the cases. The first fatality is eli in your community. What are you telling parents as you await the result was this second child who is being tested. As we know, a virus there isnt a vaccine. Were telling the parents and the general public please be vigilant washing your hands, coughing, sneezing into your elbow, continually watching your high gene. If your child is sick please keep your child at home. Watch for certain symptoms. Theres a misconception out there that indeed that you can it can be spread different ways. But it is a virus. Enterovirus there are over 100 strains d 68 naturally attacks those with comprised immune systems. Its a vicious attack. What we have to do is be proactive in making sure that we continually wash our hands and try not to spread it as much as possible. As i understand local pediatricians have been flooded with calls. The school where eli was a student and the other student yardville elementary remains open. By all accounts it seems to be the right and reasonable thing to do. Have you seen parents take their kids out as a worry . Absolutely. The school has been cleaned, sanitized, and i believe once the information came out about enterovirus d 68 you can catch it anywhere and the school is not a primary factor in spreading it. I understand what parents are feeling and maybe taking their children out. However, the cdc state of Health Department said that wouldnt be a reasonable expectations to close down a school. Because if a child left the school and went to either movie or went to practice went home where there are other children in the home. Absolutely. Lastly the second precooler being monitored. Do you know when well get the results . We reach out to congressman smith if we can expedite the results being the child was at the same school as little eli. We dont know when we will receive it. You had to reach out to your member of congress to expedite it. Does it concern you . As mayor when our department of health said, mayor, we dont know when were go going to get the results. To me thats unacceptable. I reached out to smith within three days well get the results to you on eli. He expedited it and it was helpful to the community. As mayor i know i had to do what i could to make sure that during that time we waited it was wasnt extended. Were you given a reason why the results were not expedited and that forced you to make the call to the member of congress . Well, the cdc in atlanta is the only place at the time that can test for d 68. What were you told when you asked to expedite it . They were told when he spoke to the director at cdc because its the first fatality they wanted to expedite it. But there is a long wait to get these results for other cases around the nation. But given that we did have a child that passed the cdc committee diet expedited it. Thank you very much, mayor. Our thoughts are with your community. It is frightening. It is. Our hearts go out to elis family. Thank you for your time. Thank you for having me. Samesex marriages are underway in five more states. After the Supreme Court cleared the way yesterday.

A day after yesterday surprise action by the u. S. Supreme court on samesex marriage. More couples are getting married today. The action will affect six other states which are part of the same judicial circuit. This means samesex marriage is now or soon will be legal in 30 states plus the district of columbia. And republican Governor Scott walker said its over in wisconsin. Like woiz republican governor of indiana said i will belief in the importance of traditional marriage. I will always abide by the rule of law under our system of government. People are free to disagree with court decisions. B but. She and her partner were married in d. C. But their marriage was not recognized in their home state until now. Thank you for having me. Let me find out since you were married and waited for what we witnessed yesterday with the Supreme Court. What has that been like for you and your partner, your wife . , i mean, it has been a waiting game. Honestly we never needed a piece of paper. We wanted the Legal Protection that marriage grants our boys, most importantly. But our life hasnt drastically changed because now were legally married. Our daytoday raising toddlers is pretty much the same as it was on sunday. I bet that means pretty busy running around doing a lot of things from the photograph. Theyre adorable but your children, as i understand the status, your parental rights were impacted as we wait for the surprise action. Right. They were. Now she can legally adopt the boys, hopefully be listed on the birth certificate. She wasnt able to receive fmla when the boys were born, and now future parents will be able to receive that benefit. Shes a teacher so she gets a pension. Before there was a big question about whether the boys would be able to receive that pension, you know, one day and similarly one day if something would have happened to me, someone could have foughten to take the boys away from her who was raising them. For any parent, i cannot imagine having that fear of the instability if, you know, as you pointed out something would have happened to you what would happen to your children. Right. And were lucky that everyone that surrounds us, our family and friends supports us and would never try to do that. But theres other couples that arent so lucky and live with the fear that an extended Family Member could try and say they were next of kin and take their children away. But as you well know and heard there for some this battle continues. So while you and your wife have some closure, if i can call it that for your immediate concerns with the children, what about the other families . What message do you have for them . Im sorry the other families that are in other states . Exactly. Well, i mean, ive said from the day one stay hopeful. Youre not going to change anyones youre only going to change peoples hearts and minds by living your life. Loving your partner, loving your children, and being true to yourself. And thats how people will change and how people will accept that, you know, individuals, guy girl, two women, two men can create a loving and nurturing family. And i think its just a matter of time before this is a nonissue and i feel so lucky that my boys are only 2 and theyll never have a strong memory of a time that their family was discriminated against or their parents didnt have equal rights. Marti, thank you for your time. I have to give an extra thank you for sharing the photographs of the boys. You have all of them in the matching sailor suit i cant. Its too cute yeah. I say, you know, they might be a bit embarrassed that i have shown the picture on national tv. Theyll never be embarrassed their participants fought for their family and all families well, said, marti. Congratulations to your family. Thank you.

I think in each of the case its a little bit different. The trend is always what matters more than individual polls. Especially in kentucky. Grimes leading in that latest poll. We havent seen that in the past. I think people watching subsequent polls to see if they see a similar trent there. I think one place you can see that a republican is struggling a little bit is in North Carolina. You mentioned kay hagan and tom till lis. Our latest poll had kay hagan up by 4 points in the race. Youre seeing in the race as in others republican candidates trying to make this more about obama than necessarily the candidate theyre running against. Thats something tom tillis has been doing. He mentioned secret service, ebola, isis. Hes trying to nationalize the race. I dont know if any of those attacks have stuck yet. Cay hagan is talking about like issues like education.

Military response to the ebola crisis in west africa. To provide regional cord coordination of u. S. Military support to the u. S. And International Relief efforts. Finally, we placed two additional mobile medical labs into operation last week, significantly increasing the capacity for rapidly diagnosing ebola. Were establishing a facility capable of Training Health care support workers, enabling Health Care Workers to safely provide direct medical care to patients. This is very important, i want you to help us tell our families and the American Public the health and safety of the team supporting our mission is priority. By providing predeployment training, adhering to strict medical protocols, and carrying out carefully rplanne ened meas have confidence we can ensure our servicemembers safety and the seat of their families and the american people. As we deploy americas sons and daughters to support the comprehensive effort, we will do everything in our power to address and mitigate the potential risk to our servicemembers, civilian employees, contractors, and their families. Preventing the spread of ebola is the core task of this effort. The professionals of Doctors Without Borders have a remarkable record of safe operation in their fight against the spread of ebola. We have looked at their looked and consoled with the z agency for International Development and the centers for disease control, the World Health Organization and others to develop protocols based on known risk and prudent planning. We are taking the following steps to ensure the save of our people. Implementing procedures to reduce or eliminate those to Service Members while deployed including the use of personal protective equipment and hygiene and constant monitoring. Let me assure you by providing the training and adhering to strict protocols and measures batesed on risk and exposure, i am 1 phi dent we can assure safety and the safety of the american people. In the end, our equipment, training and procedures and the discipline of our leaders will help us make sure we accomplish the mission without putting fellow citizens at risk. Stopping the spread of this disease is the core mission here. We are all focused in all of our efforts to accomplish this by supporting the International Effort and by keeping our own people as safe as we can. With that i will take your questions. There has been questions about the response to the overall crisis that has been slow. Do the troops you have now, are they enough to get the job done or do you think in order to move things along more rapidly and construct the facilities more quickly, do you think you are going to need more troops there and do you have a cost estimate . One of the challenges as they continue to gain and grow situational understanding overtime because of the isolated places that is creating problems. We are supporting the u. S. Aid efforts and the leadership approved up to almost 4,000 people. Admiral kirby talked to you about it and we have a lot of flexibility to put people in there as they are need and who is needed. I think right now we have sufficient capacity and numbers to do that. The speed at which they are done, its not just one challenge with doing that. Part is the ability of the host nation to ab hoesh it. Their capacity to house people and feed people is limited. Its going to come in in a very, very carefully orchestrated demand out at the front. At the same time they are increasing situational understanding. These mobile labs are very, very important. Its important to find out who you have to treat and who you dont. We flowed two more in and having a major impact and we have several more on the way to better adjust. That wasnt what we expected. The cost estimates are right now probably around 750 million for our efforts in about a sixmonth president. The challenge with doing that. The labs, for example, were not in the initial plan. Jim miklaszewski with nbc. Will any military personnel be involved with the treatment of ebola patients or in the training that health care givers, will they be coming into contact with any ebola patients . No. Now the mobile labs are different, but no for the majority of the force. The mobile labs are testing people. Some of them will have the ebola virus. Now those are trained at the highest level of Something Like nuclear biological and chemical. They are trained at a very, very high level and they have been operating for many years and two that we deployed meet those standards of training. Do you have numbers of those who will be involved in the Lab Operations and what kind of protections or protocol will they observe and if any u. S. Personnel should contract ebola, what is the protocol there . What happens . First on the numbers in the labs between a 3 and a fourperson team. We have three deployed now and probably deploy several others. It will add more people. Those people are trained at the highest level of operating in a nuclear, biological and chemical arena.
