Business. Lauren says it sounds generous but is totally selfserving for the corporation. Yet another example of god playing human. Good morning. Today is wednesday, october 14. Im in for elisabeth hasselbeck. We begin with a fox news alert. While you were sleeping a Second Health care worker in texas testing positive for ebola. Breaking details and a live report from the dallas hospital. Thats not good. The true motivation behind the benghazi attacks revealed in new charges filed by one of the top suspects. The question now, why is this so different from what the white house has been saying from the get if. Less than a week after admitting she illegally
married an ethiopian in 1997, this candidate has come up with something else. On an up note, mornings are better with friends. Hi everybody. Welcome to studio e here in the midtown manhattan area. As you can see, from the right now youre on the six. Youre in for elisabeth today. In case you were wondering where elisabeth is this week, she had surgery yesterday and shes going to be out for a couple of weeks but shes doing just find. Shes on the mend. As you know, she is strong, she is tough and a better athlete than me. We heard from her last night and she said she is feeling good. Until then well work with wonderful people like
kimberly. Im looking forward to see if im up to the task. We start with a fox news alert. Overnight a Second Health care worker in texas has tested positive for ebola. This as the c. D. C. Director now says he regrets the response they gave to the deadly virus. Were live in dallas with the breaking details. Reporter good morning, guys. This really illustrate the point that was being made by the nurses Union Yesterday saying that Health Care Workers all over the country felt hike they did not have the proper training and the proper equipment to deal with patients who have such a serious virus like ebola and then this morning it is driven right home with the latest information coming down that a second worker here at texas health presbyterians hospital in dallas has tested positive. State Health Officials say this employee came down with a fever yesterday and then immediately was isolated at the hospital. The preliminary test results are in from the state laboratory positive for ebola. The c. D. C. Will officially confirm it in a second test today. Its not clear wh this whether this is another nurse, whether this is a respiratory therapist. All we got is this is an employee. The c. D. C. Identified 76 people here at texas health who had some form of contact with Thomas Duncan while he was an in patient here before he died last week. No doubt this latest development has to be sending shock waves through top u. S. Health officials who spent much of yesterday addressing mistakes made in dallas and how they plan to fix them moving forward. Ive been hearing loud and clear from Health Care Workers from around the country that theyre worried, that they dont feel prepared to take care of a patient with ebola. Thats why they claim changes are being made. One of the biggest things that will be implemented, a
special c. D. C. Ebola Response Team with experts in this field, experts on the virus will deploy now to hospitals where cases pop up to train staff properly. Meantime, 26yearold nina pham was the first nurse to contract the potentially deadly virus. She is said to be in Good Condition right now being treated at the very same hospital where she works. We obviously expect to learn a whole lot more about this newest case as the day progresses. That happening overnight, yesterday. The nurses and the nurses union sent out a letter that says when mr. Duncan came in a the emergency room, we did this all wrong. He apparently languished in the e. R. For hours next to other people. They had flimsy equipment. And then the nurses who were taking care of him went and took care of other people potentially exposing them as well. When they took his blood, they sent it through the
tube system. They didnt package it specially. Potentially contaminated the entire system. Unbelievable. When you heard 170 people are being looked at, up to 124 being observed, we fear we are going to be coming in day after day after day and hearing stories like this, that somebody else tested positive for ebola. But yesterday Thomas Frieden came out and essentially said in his own special way, i wish we reacted differently and i wish were now going to have what seems to be a Quick Reaction team so whef someone tests positive were going to send them in to have certain protocols. The nurses were upset about whats going on and this is a lot of confusion across the country. Hes vowing he can handle this. Hes saying hes up to the task and we can control this outbreak of ebola, shut it down here in the u. S. And but most especially we have to focus overseas, the pinpoint where this is happening, the vicious outbreak to make sure this doesnt get
here. But people are worried. Look at the messup here. Hes admitting they made mistakes. On the heels of that confident statement he made, we have another case. This are people calling for him to dpet get fired and megyn kelly asked him about that last night on this here channel. The American Public looks at you and says why should we trust you and why should we trust the administration when barack obama told us we are prepared if ebola reaches our shores. This is deeply troubling. We still know how to stop ebola. We have cared for patients for decades with ebola. We need to make sure that care is safe. We know how ebola spreads. We know how to stop it from spreading. But clearly what happened at the hospital shouldnt have happened. No kidding. Thats the understatement. If youre just waking up, a Second Health care worker down in dallas has ebola. That was a pretty
effective interview yesterday. He tends to go into his normal mantra statements, were taking every precaution when clearly he even admitted he wasnt taking every precaution. If he wants to hold on to his job, maybe this got to be somebody above him telling him what to do and making sure all elements and all apparatus are working from the same hymn book. That would probably be the president , wouldnt it . Hes ultimately in charge. Even bill oreilly calling for him to step down calling him the chief of propaganda, hes not being honest with people. Seven minutes after the hour. Another developing medical crisis, the mysterious respiratory crisis hospitalizing thousands of kids in the u. S. Being eyed in the death of a third young person. Anna kooiman joins us live with more on this. Good morning. Parents on edge this morning at an Elementary School in peoria, arizona,
after a boy in the first grade died battling a serious respiratory virus. Some fear it may be the enterovirus but Health Officials have yet to confirm this. I am very concerned like i guess any parent would be. You know, at first it was something you just wrote off, you know, kids get sick. It stepped up another level when i came home and i found out unfortunately that someone lost their child today. That got me just on the enl of panic. This news comes as doctors warn we will soon see an extreme spike in cases. Instead of National Case counts growing by 30 a day, theyre expected to jump to 90 or more. The reason . Health officials had been using a brandnew tests that speeds diagnosing the enterovirus in children. Theyll be able to process four or five times more specimens a day and get results quicker. The virus which leaves children struggling to breathe has also been
linked to paralysis. The c. D. C. Is investigating the cause of the symptoms. So far the virus has chaimed the lives of a claimed the lives of a 21monthold girl from michigan and a 4yearold boy from new jersey. It is far more prevalent than ebola right here at home. And it is the cold and flu season on top of that. Yesterday new charges were filed against Ahmed Abu Khattalah, described as one of the master minds behind the benghazi attack. 18 counts, he does face the death penalty. Whats curious about what we learned in the indictment yesterday and youre a lawyer, you can explain it for us it talks about how in addition to killing people, apparently he masterminded the pillage of, and the plunder of the buildings of documents, maps and
computers, secret stuff. Confidential information, privileged information. Keep in mind this is a man openly notorious, running around having a frat day outside, one who was one of the director ringleaders of al sharia, a shootoff of al qaeda. He was able to spread jihad. Now we see look he was actually involved and this was a planned terrorist attack. Not a spontaneous outburst of some kind of video. As fox has been saying for over a year, that consolate was full of c. I. A. Information and it was stolen, now in enemy hands as well as a lot of weapons. And thats why it was targeted and thats why its in operation. What does bother me is they conclude in this indictment is this guy was the muscle, not the mastermind. He wasnt alone. Ive seen the video. The fact that this guy is in new york city doesnt mean the investigation should be over. The indictment talks about how after the first wave that killed ambassador stevens, he went to another place, got a bunch of guys why werent they able to get more information out of him regarding his affiliates and people he was working so closely with on this. Have you he have toss it had to Heather Childers . Here are your headlines, heather. We have other headlines. This bombshell, another one, a New Discovery by the New York Times, weapons of mass destruction were found in iraq but it was kept secret. The times reporting between 2004 and 2011 american troops found 5,000 chemical warheads and on several occasions they even injured u. S. Sources. The pentagon hiding the information from the public and even keeping congress in the dark. One soldier saying that he found 2,400 nerve gas rockets but he was ordered to say that he found quote
nothing of significance. Admiral john kirby declined to comment. The first lady of oregon admitting to be part of a pot operation. She says she bought land for an illegal marijuana growing operation in 1997. She says she was involved in an abusive relationship and isnt proud of that time in her life. This admission comes shortly after she admitted that she married that man so he could get a green card. Martha stewart slammed Gwenyth Paltrow again, this time mocking the actresss statement on unconscious uncoupling. In the latest issue of Martha Stewart living she takes a dig at the actress on food pairings which includes pie that boasts the perfect marriage of crust and filling. Stewart criticized paltrows lifestyle website
saying if she were confident in her acting she wouldnt try to be Martha Stewart. Ouch. Those are a look at your headlines. Never seen such anger. It is incredible. Like theyre throwing pies at each other. Coming up straight ahead, just hours after the c. D. C.

[ gong ] mm mm good fox news alert breaking overnight, a Second Health care worker in texas, a second one has tested positive for ebola just hours after the head of the c. D. C. Says hes confident that our methods to contain the virus are working. Dr. David sanders, a professor of biological science has been constituted dick ebola for more than a decade. He says theres more than one way to transfer a virus. Doctor, thank you for being with us this morning. A lot of concern out there because it seems theres far more that we dont know
than we do especially this on the heels of the university making that announcement that in fact this is a Second Health care worker that has tested positive for ebola. I think on the minds of americans is how easy, easily is this transmitted . Can it in fact be airborne as well . Its a great question. At this time we have no evidence for airborne transmission. It seems to be transmitted solely by bodily fluids. But the question has arisen, there was an article in the New York Times questioning whether it can go airborne. There was a lot of reaction saying no its not possible, it cant get into the lungs. Well, it turns out that our own research that we publish with our collaborators demonstrate that ebola has the inherent capacity to enter lung tissue, human lung touche from the airway side just human lung tissue from the airway side. It cannot be ruled out it does not have the compass if i to go in. At this point this is no suggestion it has mutated to the point that has happened, but it could in the future . That is correct. Essentially are you saying we could cap ebola the catch ebola the same way you catch the flew flu, that if you breathe it, youve got it . That is a possibility. I try to be very careful here. I cant put a number on how possible that is. But the most Important Message is the longer the epidemic dps on, the more cases we have, the more likely it comes. It is a nonzero probability. But i cant tell you what that probability is. If you have a million cases rather than ten thousand cases that increases the chance about a hundred fold. Every time it mute
mutates, we cant predict how many times it mutates and manifests in a way so that in fact it could become airborne . That is correct. You know about this because youve been studying ebola since 2003 . We published that paper in 2003. We studied it before 9 11. We had a hypothesis about how it evolved. Once again, right now it cannot be transferred airborne but in the future you just dont know. Thats right. Thank you for being with us to shed some light on it. Thank you very much. 20 minutes after the top of the hour. In the fight against isis, there is a question were wondering but the administrations answer is are we winning .

Coalition despite attacks by the u. S. Coalition isis seems to be stronger by the day. Jay sekulow says he saw this coming and wrote about it in his book. What happens . We have an office in the middle east and been following this for a long time but i was at Oxford University this summer presenting on the middle east and terrorism. Our people picked isis. It was not known in the public eye. We saw this dproaght. By the time the program started in june and by the time it was over in july the interest in isis had
dproan grown significantly because of the the beheadings and the amount of land mass. Youve got a terrorist organization the wealthiest weve seen in history and taking over land mass. Pretty good for a j. V. Team. They have 16 separate commands and they are able to conduct multiple operations. Unlike a traditional terrorist organization, al qaeda in iraq which was their previous incarnation, what isis has done is set up a command and control. They are a military force. When you look at the isis soldiers they are fighting in the open, not hiding in caves. Theyre using American Military weaponry to do this. Theyve set up a command and control structure. The lead
