This is the this is the cbs morning news for friday, october 17th, 2014. Good morning. Good to be with you. Im annemarie green. Well, this morning a Dallas Health care worker who may have handled a lab specimen from the liberian patient who died of ebola is in isolation on a cruise ship anchored in belize. The ship sailed from galveston, texas, august 12th. They say she has been selfmonitoring and did not have direct contact with thomas duncan. She has shown no signs of the disease for 19 days, the maximum 21 days. President obama says he may appoint an ebola czar to head the administrations response to the virus. The first dallas nurse diagnosed with the disease is now being treated at the National Institutes of health near washington. Nina phams colleagues showed their support as she left Texas Health Presbyterian hospital yesterday. She flew in a private jet from texas to the National Institutes of health in maryland. Her doctors say she is in good condition. Mark albert is in bethesda. Mark, good morning. Reporter good morning. Pham arrived here just before midnight. She landed at a small airport near here that had already closed to the public. Meanwhile the Hospital Association along with the cdc will hold an ebola Conference Call for all u. S. Hospitals later this morning. 26yearold nina pham wearing protective gear was helped into an balance and taken to the National Institutes of health in bethesda for treatment of ebola. Hours earlier the nurse turned patient fought back tears as she thanked the medical staff who treated her at Texas Health Presbyterian hospital. Pham was diagnosed with ebola after caring for Thomas Eric Duncan who died of the disease last week. Some nurses at texas health maintain the hospital was not prepared to deal with the virus. I saw a chaotic scene. It wasnt organized. It wasnt safe. No one really in charge. Reporter but in a statement the hospital defended its procedures yet again, saying it followed the frequently changing cdc guidelines and recommendations. Officials at texas health had pham transferred here to nih because with about 75 employees being monitored for ebola symptoms, they were concerned the hospital had become overwhelmed. Lawmakers for both parties are now calling on president obama to issue a travel ban. The travel ban is less effective than the measures that we are currently instituting. Reporter in the u. S. Five major airports are now screening passengers arriving from west africa in an effort to stop ebola from spreading here at home. President obama has authorized the callup of up to 4,000 reservists and National Ground troopers to help fight the spread of ebola in west africa. Also, meanwhile the cdc is reaching out to even more airline passengers, 750 who flew on the same airplane as that second infected texas nurse before she tested positive. Annemarie . All right. Mark albert in texas. Thank you, mark. That news triggered more precautions. A bridal shop she visited in akron on saturday was voluntarily closed, and people who visited the store should Contact Health officials. Aside from the trip to the store, vinson spent the weekend with family members. Eight of them are in voluntary confinement. Last night vinsons family issued a statement. They say she followed all the protocols while treating the patient in dallas and right now shes trusting her doctors and nurses as she is now the patient. As the number of americans being monitored for ebola has expanded, theres growing criticism of the government response. Yesterday the head of the cdc faced tough questions on capitol hill. Craig boswell has that part of the story. Reporter testifying before a house committee, the director of the cdc says hes confident ebola is not a significant Public Health threat in the u. S. If any become ill, we immediately isolate them so we can break the chain of transmissions. Reporter many lawmakers are doubtful after two nurses who were treated the parent contracted the patient. It would be an understatement to say that the response to the first u. S. Based patient with ebola has been mismanaged. Reporter there were also questions why the second nurse, amber vinson, was allowed to travel after saying she had a fever. I have not seen the transcript. Our understanding is she reported no symptoms to us. Reporter many lawmakers are pushing president obama to impose a travel back on three west african countries with the most recent cases, something the president has resisted so far. We need to send a signal now, our border is closed. If passengers are not allowed to come directly, there is a high likelihood theyll find another way to get here and we wont be able to track them. Reporter president obama says the focus should be fighting the outbreak in west africa. Thursday he authorized the pentagon to call up the national guards. Craig boswell, cbs news, capitol hill.

Heres a look at todays forecast in some cities around the country. The fbi says that new Encryption Technology from apple and google locks Law Enforcement out of smartphones. The new software is a popular choice for consumers, but bob orr reports that its a big problem for fighting terrorism and crime. Reporter apple has been unveiling a new generation of devices with bigger screens, sharper cameras, and faster processors, but its apples new privacy protections that worry Law Enforcement. The latest operating system from the tech giant and competing software from google allow people to permanently lock their smartphones. Only the user knows the security code. Apple and google say they cant break that code, and neither can police even with a court order. Fbi director james comey warned that this could allow criminals and terrorists to permanently hide their files. Its the equivalent of a closet that cant be opened, a safe deposit box that cant be opened, a safe that can never be cracked. Reporter the new privacy features come in response to a backlash. In marketing its new system apple openly boasts about unbreakable encryption saying we wouldnt be able to comply with a wiretap order even if we wanted to. And then a more direct response to the fbi warning, google issued this statement saying, people previously used safes and combination locks to keep their information secure. Now they use encryption. But comey says this is about more than protecting the rights of the phone user. I suggest to you that homicide cases could be stalled, suspects walked free, Child Exploitation not discovered and prosecuted, justice may be denied because of a locked phone or an encrypted device. Reporter comeys asking smartphone manufacturers to take a step back and change course, but google and apple are complying with current law and say theyre simply reacting to the publics demand for more privacy protections.
