doctors at emory university admit they are stunned that's a quote, the discovery of the ebola virus in the doctor's eye pay change the way survivors are treated. >> he never saw it coming, nor did his doctors. dr. krozier contracted ebola in sierra leone so sick almost died. but after a month add emory university he was discharged and declared ebola free. two months later pressure built up in his eye the pain became unbearable and doctors found crozier still had the ebola virus still living in his eye. >> we know the eye is

partitioned off from the body's immune system, that may be why ebola links in there. >> health watch dogs say even after the disease is thought to have exited their bodies, dr. crozier is unlikely to have spread ebola his tears and other eye membranes tested negative. nonetheless, health workers are asked to be extra cautious, when examining patients with ebola. whether the disease can be transmitted through sexual contact as can hiv. >> the inside of the testes are walled off which is why ebola has been detected in semen.

>> mostly in liberia, sierra leone and guinea. but cases have been steadily declining since the peak and tomorrow liberia the hardest hit country is expected to declare itself ebola-free. >> while that is good news survivors in west africa have been declaring eye problems on and off. and the other thing that is unclear as i hinted in my report there, why crozier's eye improved on its own why it his immune system kicked in. >> why it went back to its original color. >> exactly. >> abdul, always good to see you. what does this tell us, that ebola is much harder to fully

eradicate from the body than we otherwise thought? >> yes, it suggests to us that some of what we call these immune privileged parts of the body may in fact be seeded with ebola when somebody's somebody's infected, and while ebola can get into these compart it fess terse and causes an eye infection as we saw in the doctor, and perhaps stay in the testes and be ejack lated in the semen. even when the blood is cleared. >> seems that the ebola was in one eyeball and john tells us not in tears so he likely was not contagious. >> gentlemen, so far as we know, it was not on the surface of the

eye, or in the tears something like a pink eye for example and we noh that patients with pink eye when they touch their eyes and then touch something else that's how the pink eye spreads. with ebola in this case, it was very clear it was not on the tissue or in the tears so there was no risk he was vedding it. what was interesting throw it was in the humer of the eyeball like the most distant room of a very, very large house that nobody comes in or goes out of. to have seeded ebola would suggest he had a very, very serious infection. that it was able to get out of the body and into the eye. >> but with semen you can transmit it that way. >> the likelihood of getting infection is so low it's better that the immune system doesn't have access to those areas.

the immune system can act up, and two of these place is the eye, as we saw in the doctor and the second in the testes, which is bad news that ebola can be found in the semen something we've known for a while. after the large 95 outbreak we found up with a number of patients that it was clear it was being expressed in the semen. >> this treatment needs to be ongoing whether the virus moves from the victim's blood? >> not necessarily, there is not evidence that victims are able to transmit, we are clear that after they clear it from the blood, the likelihood of transmission is ininfinitesimaly small. a number of patients ma be having what is now termed a

post-ebola syndrome, what he has described yons beyond the eye system, the cartilage of the joints are places where there's very little blood flow and very little immune activity, which makes sense. >> doctor, good to have you with us. thank you. an injustice that went undiscovered for decades. >> i want to be united with my maybe that i should have -- i missed almost 51 years. >> after an investigation found a u.s. hospital may have stolen u.s. babies, dozens of other women are now asking, if the same thing happened to them. and a special tribute to world war ii veterans, after europe finally found peace.
