CARL AZUZ, CNN ANCHOR: News broke yesterday
afternoon concerning the deadly Ebola virus. It`s where we start this Wednesday
edition of our show.
The hemorrhagic fever has made it to U.S.
shores. When we talked about this before, it was when Americans were diagnosed
with the deadly disease in West Africa where the outbreak is and then brought
to the U.S. for treatment.
Not this time. The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention says a patient being treated at a hospital in Dallas, Texas, is
the first diagnosed in the U.S. with the hemorrhagic fever. The patient had
recently traveled to West Africa and developed Ebola symptoms after getting
home.
In August, CNN`s doctor Sanjay Gupta traveled to
the CDC`s command center for Ebola.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
SANJAY GUPTA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: This is the
CDC`s Emergency Operation Center. Think of it as the nerve center of its
response to the Ebola outbreak. Just a few minutes after I walked in, phones
and BlackBerries started buzzing everywhere.
(on camera): While we were here, the activation
of - just went up to level one. Just in the last couple of minutes. What does
it mean?
STEPHAN MONROE, CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND
PREVENTION: What that means is just more people and more resourced dedicated to
the response.
GUPTA: In that room, you could feel like quiet
determination and a sense of urgency.
Let me give you a little bit of an idea of how
this all works. What you are looking at is what the CDC looks at. A map of the
world, trying to figure out what infectious disease are happening and where
they are happening. As you might imagine, a lot of focus on Ebola right now.
They are tracking that as well, real time. They`ve been doing it since March,
take a look in here, this jumped out of me. Mid-May, they thought things were
basically under control, but then look what happens in the beginning of June.
Everything takes off.
MONROE: This is our Emergency Operation Center,
or EOC as we call it.
GUPTA: Dr. Stephan Monroe is helping lead the
CDC`s Ebola response. Not an easy task at all.
(on camera): Was there mistakes made? I mean is
there a reason why this outbreak is worse than any outbreak in history?
MONROE: The initial event, the lightning strike,
if you will, was right in this corner between three countries in a very remote
part of each of those countries.
