liberian man who died of ebola at a dallas hospital. both wore protective gear, gowns, gloves, masks. this is the man who died. the cdc says the nurse was diagnosed yesterday, a day after flying from cleveland to dallas. frontier airlines says it is working with the cdc to contact all 132 passengers on her flight. this is a live look again now at where that second ebola patient has been taken. frontier airlines canceled all future scheduled flights on that decontaminated plane. the danger ebola presents to nurses has nurses here demanding some changes. abc 7 news reporter lyanne melendez joins us to explain. >> reporter: hi, cheryl. nurses are right in the middle of their contract negotiations when all of this was developing, and that's when they decided to open up the dialogue and include ebola. kaiser has 21 facilities in northern california with 18,000

nurses. their union is demanding some new safety conditions as part of a new contract. >> we are at the bargaining table, we said hey, over the course of this we want to see this put in place. not only for ebola but for any kind of infectious disease, pandemic that we might be facing. we need interactive education, not just videos and short training sessions. this is a highly -- a skill that we have to have, and we need proper training. >> reporter: so far, kaiser has shown their nurses videos on how to use protective gear. they have also posted educational materials on ebola. the hospital also says training began on monday for nurses and staff in the emergency room on how to handle these cases. this is what they are telling reporters. kaiser is fully prepared to evaluate and treat suspected and identified cases of ebola while providing the utmost protection for all of our health care providers. but the kaiser nurses are asking

for full body haz/mat suits, proper respirators and one-on-one training. in fact, nurses throughout the nation are now following their lead. more than 11,000 of them were joined via a conference call announcing they are reaching out to the president. >> as far as the president, we ask his executive authority to mandate uniform national standards and protocols that all hospitals must follow to provide safety for patients, health care workers and the public. >> reporter: kaiser nurses are also asking for a supplemental health and life insurance in case they are infected with the virus. lyanne melendez, abc 7 news. officials with the california department of public health say they are working to make sure hospitals are prepared for ebola and properly trained. >> there's no evidence of community spread for ebola in this state or any other state in the united states.

as you get closer and closer to actually working with a patient who has been exposed to or is confirmed with ebola, the risk does get higher. >> there are no cases of ebola or suspected cases in california at this time. now, at the capital in washington, d.c., hand sanitizing stations are back. many say it is because of concerns over ebola. there are simple but very important things that we can all do to protect ourselves from ebola. we have posted information from the cdc and abc7news.com and you can get updates on ebola as they happen at other breaking news as well with our abc 7 news app, free to download on apple's app store or google play. we also have information on abc7news.com. two suspects are in custody in connection with a violent beating and home invasion robbery of an elderly couple. police say the suspects befriended the couple who are in

for parking at this game. orange is the new green. deals are all relative. >> they should let it park for free. >> reporter: for that matter, pigs should fly but not when parking in san francisco during playoff time -- >> $40 is unbelievable. we're not used to these rates. >> reporter: mike, cardinals fan, paid $40 to park half a mile from the stadium and feels he got a deal. same with john, what's up with that, he only paid four times the regular rate here. >> i wish it wasn't so expensive but that's just the way it is. >> reporter: ever think maybe they have you trained? >> it's possible. >> reporter: it's supply and demand. exhibit b or maybe c, this lot at 153 townsend one block from the park. the sign says $100. jason louie paid $78 by making a reservation. >> i'm good with that price. >> reporter: what's going on here? >> it's a status thing. >> reporter: stewart kesselman, aka mr. ticket, a business that

service is only available through its go app which requires a cable or satellite subscription. if successful, other premium services would likely follow. this could be the start of an a la carte television service that consumer groups have long wanted. microsoft and google have both announced it will offer a kill switch on the next version of window and android phones. the announcement comes six weeks after governor brown signed a bill that would require opt-out kill switches on all smartphones sold in the state. san francisco district attorney hailed today's announcement. he has been pushing hard for kill switches on smartphones as a good anti-theft deterrent. those scared away from flying due to the ebola outbreak may qualify for a refund but only under very narrow circumstances. those who cancel could qualify for a refund if they purchased a refundable ticket, not very many of us do that. some may also qualify if they

purchased travel insurance. few of us do that. but you need to read the fine print on your policy. the insurance must cover pandemics and epidemics. even then you would only get a refund if two additional conditions are met. first, an epidemic or pandemic must have been declared in the country you're flying to and you must have purchased the insurance and ticket prior to the health crisis being declared. finally, if you just don't feel like flying because you're concerned about all of this, fear is not covered under any of these policies. fear or concern. >> you can't just back out. >> you can't just back out unless you buy a policy that allows you to back out under any circumstances. you can't say i don't want to fly. >> good to know. thank you. well, if you go to mcdonald's tomorrow you may want to take pocket change. donation boxes have been set up near the cash register at bay area mcdonald's restaurants. tomorrow's dance change campaign collects money for ronald mcdonald houses. they provide families with sick

he says yes, i am. i said well, that's why you can go to the head of the line. he said oh, in that case, i will. and he did. >> it was age, not being an icon. he says the system used to determine which buildings were safe to re-enter became a model for the entire country. as the recent napa quake reminded us, another one can hit any time, anywhere. meteorologist mike nicco shows us what to do when the ground shakes. >> tell us what we're in and what's going to happen. >> you are in the big shaker, the world's largest mobile earthquake simulator. we are here in san francisco. you know what? san francisco earthquake can san francisco earthquake can happen just like that. >> so why did you do what you
