Temper,6th of said initially sought care, and sunday, the 28th of september was admitted to a hospital in texas and placed in isolation. We received in our laboratory today specimens from the individual on the tested them, and they tested positive for ebola. Of texas also operates a laboratory that found the same results. For ebola is highly accurate. It is a pcr test of blood. So what does this mean . The next steps are basically threefold. First, to care for the patient, and we will be hearing from the hospital shortly to provide the most effective care possible, as safely as possible, to keep to an absolute minimum the likelihood or possibility that anyone would become infected, and second, to maximize the chances that the patient might recover. Identified all people who might have had contact with the patient while he could have been infectious, and, remember, ebola does not spread from someone who is not infectious. It does not find spread from someone who does not have fever or o
Frankly to take the gonzales threat seriously after the information provided by the Virginia State police. We knew he had a history of mental omelettes. We knew that Mental Illness. We knew that he was loaded up with guns. Had a map ofhe washington. You indicate that that map was described as just a tourist map looking at places he might go. That might make sense, except for the fact that he was loaded up with ammunition and weapons in his car at the time. Utah hasriend from made headlines and made a statement here today that he believes your reaction should be one of maximum force. I guess we should read that to mean that he should be shot on fence,hen he crosses the when he goes over the fence. I am reluctant to join him in that kind of advice to the secret service because there is a first family at the white house. There are guests in the white house. It is a busy and bustling place, and the idea we are going to have a shootout on the white to begrounds seems to me a last resort, no
Building. Isnt that right . In other words, the officer was right. Yes. Ultimately, the officer was right. The Washington Post story says this agent subsequently reported her concerns to investigators. Was there an afteraccident report about the 2011 shooting . Did it include recommendations related to agents reporting their concerns without fear of being criticized . Do you know . I dont know. I would say that the officers statement to our interviews, that occurred with secret service employees, are different than the officers statements to the fbi and officers conducting the investigation. I have asked them to go back and have a robust conversation with that employee to make sure she feels supported, knows that we want her to come forward with information, and that we understand what some of the impediments may be with the Management Team where we feel like we can make improvements to make sure that never happens again. Let me say this, and then i will close. Former director sullivan
What we are doing is making sure that we are making steady progress. Heading up the infrastructure that will allow us to compete with massachusetts who are doing some of these things long before we were. In the last two quarters of 2013 when we outgrew every state in new england. Tom has made statements, things like not as many jobs as we said, thats wrong. Total privatesector job growth over the time of our administration is much more than 60,000. At the same time government has gotten smaller. Government has gotten smaller while i have been governor of the state of connecticut. Sure, we should be more efficient. Sure, we should be investing in technologies we did not have in our state previously. When i inherited this state because you elected me governor, the Largest Department spending 18 of our money was operating on a format from the effective age of 1989. Im sorry to cut you off. Now onto the rebuttal phase. Mr. Foley. Im glad the governor brought up his experience in stamford.
My point. As a casual observer to what has happened here, i do not think the circular the secret service is taking their duty to protect the american president and her family at the white house i do not think you are taking it seriously. That is exactly my point. Based on the evidence, and the series of lapses. Unfortunately, that is the conclusion i arrive at, that youre not taking your job seriously. I am sorry. I hate to be critical. But we got a lot at stake here. I know people are dancing around this issue, but i got to call it like it is. Inave very low confidence the secret service under your leadership. I have to say that. That is not an easy thing for me to say. But based on the evidence, that is how we have to call it here. Based on the evidence, my confidence in you protecting the american president right now at the white house, supposed to be one of the most secure buildings of the country, if not the world, a confidence in you doing that is very, very low right now. I than
