Obama urges 'aggressive' monitoring of Ebola threat in US
October 16, 2014
President Obama on Wednesday directed his aides to monitor the spread of Ebola in the United States "in a much more aggressive way,' but said the American people should remain confident in the government's ability to prevent a widespread outbreak of the deadly disease.

After a two-hour meeting of cabinet-level officials who are in charge of the government's response to the virus, Mr. Obama promised that a review of the recent Ebola cases in Dallas would determine what went wrong that allowed two nurses to be infected.
