After something of a botched response initially by local and federal Health Officials to this ebola crisis and under intense pressure to do something, the president today appointed an ebola czar, official title Ebola Response coordinator, his name is ron klain. Hes a lawyer, Democratic Party veteran, former chief of staff to al gore and joe biden. Hes got his work cut out for him as the government makes a push to restore calm. We begin our reporting once again tonight with our National Correspondent kate snow in dallas. Reporter the announcement at the white house was unexpected. Ron klain will be the administrations ebola czar, a former chief of staff for two Vice President s, but not a medical expert. What we were looking for is not an ebola expert but rather an implementation expert. And thats exactly what ron klain is. Reporter Texas Governor rick perry cut a trip to europe short. Today he called on the president to enact a ban for air travel to the u. S. For countries infected by the ebola outbreak. Air travel is in fact how this disease crosses borders. And its certainly how it got to texas in the first place. Reporter the 75 Health Care Workers who treated duncan are being asked to sign an agreement they will not travel by commercial transportation, no airplane, ship, Long Distance bus or train travel. And no trips to Public Places like restaurants, Grocery Stores or theaters. For the first time in the history of the United States somebody with ebola walked in the front door. And we missed that. Reporter in the wake of widespread criticism of the hospital, we sat down with the hospitals chief clinical officer. To be fair, you werent doing a lot of training on ebola. No. We werent doing a lot of training. We were communicating a lot. Reporter vargas still not exactly sure how two nurses became infected, but no one wearing full hazmat suits until october 1st, three days after duncan was admitted. Clearly the protection was inadequate for nina and for amber. Reporter the two sick nurses. I got two sick nurses. You cant explain that away. Reporter the hospital released this video of nina pham with her doctors in an isolation room in dallas. She arrived at the National Institutes of Health Clinical center in bethesda, maryland late last night. Shes in good spirits. Shes a highly intelligent aware person who knows exactly whats going on. Shes a really terrific person. Reporter her colleague remains at Emory University hospital. So far only one passenger who flew in a seat near vinson on a flight from cleveland to dallas has been located in ohio and told to stay home and monitor temperature. The cdc is making contact with the rest of the people who sat near vinson on that flight and the first flight she took a week ago today. At the dallas hospital, a show of support for vinson and pham. Its been a difficult time. Theyre tired right now. They do resent, you know, kind of constant negative coverage. But theyre resilient. Theyre going to bounce back. Reporter those being monitored here with Thomas Eric Duncan are almost out of that 21day window in which they would have started ebola symptoms. One person graduated off the list already yesterday. And duncans family should be in the clear by monday morning, brian. Kate snow starting us in dallas once again tonight. Kate, thanks. And we are joined at this point by the moderator of meet the press, chuck todd. Chuck, about ron klain, this is an inside player in d. C. , lawyer and politico. The white house says they need a manager here and not a doctor, but does this quiet the critics for now . I dont think its going to quiet the critics particularly on the republican side of the aisle who actually see an opportunity to use the fear of ebola in the political campaigns. Were less than three weeks from election day, and i dont know if it quiets the panicked democrats who were wanting the white house to show a sense of urgency. I think some of them wanted somebody who would be a new public face, but the white house as you reported, brian, was looking for a back room guy, someone who knows how to bust through bureaucracy. And thats what ron klain is. Chuck todd, thanks on this friday night. We look forward to seeing you sunday morning. Much more on this topic on meet the press. Bears repeating one more time, there have only been three confirmed cases of ebola in this country, one fatality. Weve heard every day for weeks that only direct contact is the way to get ebola, and yet as the World Health Organization remarked just this week panic is spreading faster than this virus itself. That report tonight from nbcs tom costello. Reporter with ebola dominating the headlines, fear has at times bordered on hysteria. Ive been exposed to an ebola pilot. Reporter in ft. Worth a 911 caller with no symptoms wanted an ambulance at a restaurant after he overheard an offduty pilots conversation. Im sitting next to him having dinner. And he just revealed that hes been in the european countries, including west africa. Reporter at the pentagon today a bus carrying passengers to a military ceremony was quarantined, a hazmat unit called in after a woman who says she visited africa vomited outside the bus. She later recanted her story and does not have ebola. A the Washington Post photographer who has documented the suffering in liberia, disinvited from speaking at Syracuse University even though hes been back more than 21 days. The school saying its unwilling to take any risk where students are concern. And some passengers on the same flight amber vinson took told to stay home even though experts insist their risks are low. St. I would be perfectly comfortable today if i had sat right next to her. My risk of acquiring ebola infection is really zero. Reporter a Carnival Cruise ship now returning home after it learned a hospital lab worker from dallas who handled specimens 19 days ago is onboard, though shes symptom free and in her cabin. Even though ebola cant live on surfaces, a city hall, bridal shop, bank and school in ohio all temporarily shut down for cleaning over ebola concerns. Out of an abundance of caution. Out of an abundance of caution. It was out of an abundance of caution. Were trying to calm everybody down. Reporter experts say its all fueling fear. The general public need not panic. You cant get it on the subway. People arent Walking Around with ebola in your neighborhood. Reporter Infectious Disease experts reminded us yesterday its highly unlikely anybody would get sick on a plane or bus. In fact youre at a far greater risk of contracting the flu this winter, which every year kills tens of thousands of people, brian. Very important reminder. Tom costello for us tonight. Tom, thanks. Tonight, we are taking a close look at two giant storms threatening land, one in the pacific, hurricane ana, category 1 taking aim at hawaii though at this point were hoping its expected to pass just south of the islands avoiding a direct hit but bringing heavy rain. Now, in the atlantic hurricane gonzalo, category 3, wind gusts up to 160 miles an hour, threatening major damage unfortunately as it moves onshore on bermuda right now. Nbc meteorologist dylan dreyer is there. Reporter angry seas erupted today as the massive hurricane gonzalo bears down on bermuda. Damaging winds, 40foot waves and dangerously high storm surge slamming the island. Looking at a map bermuda looks like the tiniest speck in the ocean. How could it possibly stand up to such a huge storm . Imagine bermuda like a stick in the water and the water goes around it as oppose today that snowplow effect were so used to on the United States coast. Most of bermuda is shut down. And the Police Commissioner has ordered everyone inside and off the street. For sarah that means taking shelter at her hotel. Theyve cleaned everything up, put everything away. You know, well be okay. I hope. Reporter peter and barbara of New Hampshire got married 50 years ago today in boston during a hurricane. Weve weathered a lot of storms, but we have gotten through all of them. Reporter fabian was the last category 3 storm to hit in 2003. Bermudas Higher Elevation increases winds by 30 , so wind gusts up to 160 Miles Per Hour can be expected. Rob johnson and dana belky plan to get married tomorrow, tonight theyre waiting it out with their Wedding Party in the hotel basement. When we got here theyd given us the update. I looked at my bridetobe and she said we came to bermuda to get married and im not leaving until we get married. Reporter conditions have been deteriorating here since early this afternoon as this category 3 hurricane gonzalo passes to our west. It should start to race away after midnight tonight and conditions should dramatically improve. Dylan dreyer where theyre going to get all the storm they can handle. They say the place shook last night when the giants won the game earning a trip to the world series where theyll face the kansas city royals. It was pandemonium last night in San Francisco. Adding to the emotion in that city it was 25 years ago tonight the giants were in the series when disaster struck, and a National Television audience watched the story of what became known as the loma prieta quake. Weve all been told the next quake is a matter of when, not if. But is the city ready for it. Lester holt is in the city by the bay for us tonight. Hey, lester. Good evening. Reporter brian, good evening. 63 people died in that quake and hard lessons were learned including how to build a stronger bridge. Thats the new bay bridge behind me. The old one partially collapsed in the quake. It was a magical day 25 years ago. Both local teams in the world series, it couldnt get bigger until 5 04 p. M. The world series tv broadcast turns to static. Were having an earthquake. Reporter announcing to the world San Francisco is in trouble. In oakland a freeway pancakes, scores are injured or dead. A few miles away tv engineer don sharp is crossing the bay bridge. I noticed that all of a sudden the truck leaps from this lane to that lane. Just leaps. Then i noticed that the bridge was swinging a little bit. And all this dust. Reporter yet as bad as it was, Scientists Say it was not the big one. It was a big quake, but it was a big quake 60 miles south of much of the urban population. Reporter geologists now believe every day brings the bay area closer to another major quake, far bigger than the 6. 0 this past summer in napa. We are much better prepared as a city now than we were in 1989 to respond to a quake. Reporter since 1989 officials here have been wasting the clock, requiring vulnerable buildings to be strengthened, reinforcing bridges and building this new eastern span of the bay bridge. Are you confident that this bridge can withstand a very large earthquake . Yeah. Its planned, its designed, its constructed to survive the earthquake. Reporter if napa was a wakeup call, then this is one of the many voicemail messages if you will. This ruptured sidewalk sitting right atop the hayward fault. Running more than 50 miles up and down the heavily populated east bay area, the hayward fault hides in plain sight. Cracks and misaligned sidewalks foretell a frightening future. Were standing on probably the most seismically dangerous fault in the bay area. Reporter has it gone before . Its gone repeatedly. The last time was in 1868. Reporter its one of three fault lines scientists are concerned about. Disaster planners tell nbc news they believe a 7. 9 magnitude quake here could result in 7,000 dead. 1. 8 million homes without drinkable water and 300,000 people homeless. Earthquake earthquake reporter Officials Say a new alert system that gave up to nine seconds warning of the napa quake could save countless lives. So what could you do with a ninesecond warning . Its enough time to get under a table, its enough time for a surgeon to put down his scalpel, its enough time to step away from a brick wall. They hope to have that out to the public perhaps in the next couple of years, brian. Est lester holt in San Francisco for us tonight. Thanks.

Today was the first time bono has said he has glaucoma, though he did tell Rolling Stone a while back that his sun glass fetish was part vanity, part privacy and part sensitivity to light.
