Robert f. Kennedy jr. Marries cheryl hines connecting cam camellot to hollywood today on august 3rd, 2014. This is today with lester holt and erica hill live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Welcome to today. Im erica hill im lester holt alongside jenna wolfe and dylan dreyer. You were away last weekend. You were away and tan. Jenna was here for me. We are all back together. What about you . You know ist the rules. Anyway, its great to have you here. Something else special in your life well talk about coming up. Every Single Person is going to say that dylan is pregnant. I realized that too. It was my birthday the whole time. Just so you guys know. I just want to clear the air. Im glad we cleared all of that up. Weve got a lot of news to get to this morning. Its the return of the american doctor infected with the potentially deadly ebola virus. He shocked a lot of people watching when he walked into the atlanta hospital where hes being treated this morning. We continue to await the arrival of a second american aide worker. Kate snow has the latest for us. Reporter good morning. His wife says he is in great spirits and extremely grateful to be here. He is the first person with ebola to ever be treated in the united states. This moment that surprised everyone. Brantly, a father of two, emerging from an ambulance in full protective gear and walking into Emory University hospital. His family were watching inside. When they saw his strength, they cried tears of joy. I was stunned but encouraged when i saw dr. Brantly walk from that ambulance into the hospital. Its at least a sign of strength. Reporter he came from liberia on a private plane specially equipped to transport him in a sealed environment. Then an ambulance for a 22 mile ride on atlanta highways and side streets. The cdc is getting hate mail from americans for allowing such a deadly virus into this current. The unit is staffed with experts. Reporter but doctors here are confident they can keep ebola isolated with strict safety procedures like burning everything used in his room. Theres again a process in place to make sure his family can communicate with the patient but in a way where theres no risk of transmission. Reporter brantlys wife amber spent a good 45 minutes with him last evening. Last july, kent brantly gave this sermon at his childhood church. God took the reigns and nothing since then has gone as i expected. Reporter doctors are still assessing brantlys condition this morning, making sure his organs work. Meantime, the plane that flew him here is on its way back to liberia now to pick up the other american who will be treated in the united states. At major u. S. Airports, the cdc is there making sure on commercial flights no one is coming in. Dr. Eileen far lan is a Infectious Disease specialist. We know you have not seen dr. Brantly, but as a specialist you know a lot about this. Give us a sense. When you saw that video of dr. Brantly walking on his own out of the ambulance into the hospital, what did that tell you about his current condition . Well, i was very encouraged to see that. Hopefully it means hes well on the way to recovery. Hes apparently been infected as early as a week or more ago. This must mean that hes in fairly stable condition that hes able to walk. It is an infection with very high mortality. So its important to remember that although this particular strain can cause 80 mortality, some people do survive. We know theres no vaccine. Weve heard talk about a serum, that theres one serum on the ground there. And the missionary were waiting on her arrival back in the u. S. Took that serum. What is the course of treatment at this point . Right. So for her, its important to remember that that serum is experimental. And theoretically, it should give an advantage to help to clear the virus from the body, but at this point, its entirely experimental. So so dr. Brantly did not have that serum. Right. What is happening to him at this point. At this point, hes receiving supportive care. That means that the clinicians will support his Blood Pressure, theyll monitor and collect his fluid and give his body the best chance of overcoming this infection. They just have to monitor and help if they can. Is there a timeline at this point as to when he could really start to show signs of more improvement . Sure. Most patients start to show signs of improvement by about two weeks when the virus is starting to clear their body. At that point, they really start to feel lester . Investigators are scouring malaysian flight 717. A tearful Memorial Service was held for three young siblings killed when the plane was shot from the sky some two weeks ago.

Reporter a Precious Resource so often taken for granted, suddenly, hard to find. For today, miguel almaguer, nbc news yet another deadly scene in the Southern Gaza strip when an air strike hit the area near the United Nations school. This comes as israels military learns the soldier they believe had been captured by hamas fighters is, in fact, dead. Richard ingle is in gaza with the latest. Good morning. Reporter good morning, lester. Israel said that the soldier that went missing here in gaza on friday was, in fact, killed. It is unclear if he was killed in the initial palestinian attack in which militants allegedly tried to capture him or by the Israeli Military response right after that attack. Again, today, palestinians were injured and killed as they were trying to take shelter in a u. N. School. U. N. Officials say israel targeted a suspected militant at the gate of a school used as a shelter in Southern Gaza. There were multiple casualties, dead and injured. The round exploded as people and staff were coming in and out of the u. N. Run school. Israeli tanks pulled back from parts of the gaza strip and signaled more withdrawals could be coming. The Israeli Military said it nearly is finished with its primary mission, to destroy an Extensive Network of hamas tunnels into israel. Hamas rocket fire into israel has slowed but not stopped. Hamas again mistakenly believes that the people of israel do not have the will and determination to fight them. Hamas again will learn the hard way that israel will do whatever it must do to protect its people. For most gazans, this war has given them nothing but funerals, wounded and grief. During lulls in the fighting, palestinians have been trying to salvage their belongings and search for remains. Relatives were divided over how to respond to the strike that turned this house into a tomb. Nabil wants vengeance. You want us to surrender, we wont. Either we live in this country with peace and dignity or we will die with pride. His mother, hamdi, wants a deal with israel. We have had war after war, he said. Our people want nothing more than to live in peace and dignity. Israel wants more. Gazans want a deal that will sg give them a better life. So far, they are not getting it. They dropped these leaflets over gaza and they say leaders of hamas and other terrorist groups are not safe. David gregory is moderator of meet the press. Good morning. Washington has been largely supportive of israel but the administration is supporting israel for a truce. Benjamin netanyahu says, dont second ges me. Back off here. Whats the state of the relationship between the white house and israel . There are elements that are tense. President obama was strongly supportive of israel. He questioned whether a ceasefire was possible given hamas breaking the ceasefire. I havent heard the Obama Administration so strongly behind israel. They have had a tough relationship between obama and net tan netanyahu. We have seen progaza demonstrations here. Is there a political calculation for the white house. The political calculation is not so much whether to support israel but how much pressure to apply and to start thinking about where it can make a difference in the region. A calculation for israel is whether they can win win militarily, what the goal is, what the price is, even to its own security against a foe like hamas. Lets talk about a domestic matter on the issue of immigration. Congress recessed without passing an immigration bill. The president says he will go it alone if necessary. How much unilateral authority does he have . What can he do on this front . A number of things he can do. He can bride a temporary pass, a work pass, not to full legalization but to temporary stay. He can provide more work to children who are illegal and speed up that process. He wanted supplemental funds to be able to help. He is certainly not going to get that. He can certainly take some steps that could legalize at least for some period of time, those people here in an undocumented way which is going to make republicans pretty unhappy. Thanks very much. We will check back with you to find out whats coming up on meet the press. A look at the rest of the top morning stories.

George wein, at the time a Boston Jazz Club owner. We like to do something with jazz in newport. Today, its considered the granddaddy of outdoor festivals. The people who have played here before us, they say, wow, were on that list too . And 60 years later, george wein is still in charge. Was it difficult to get big names to come at first . No because the big names werent getting that much money in those days. In the 60s, a rocky relationship with the town and rowdy crowds tarnished its reputation. People had come, there were no tickets. They just started to get drunk. We weins proudest moments have been watching careers blossom on this stage. We brought miles davis back. He was finished and then he played midnight here in 1955. The next thing you know, he was the biggest thing in the country.

As founder of the newport jazz fest, wein has been described as the most important nonplayer in jazz, which is not at all accurate. Do you know that . Sure. Lets play it. Sounds great. As i witnessed while admittedly mixing business be with pleasure, he remains a vibrant and gifted jazz pea january nis. Today, outdoor jazz festivals are held across the country. Im going to be 89 years old october 3rd, i want this festival to continue after im gone. We were up there on friday. It was gorgeous. Got a little rain, though. A little bit.
