commercial flight she was allowed on just before she went into the hospital. she was allowed on that flight with an elevated temperature, calling the cdc beforehand. that is nd. that is the frontier jet she flew on. it's grounded now. it flew five more times after she was on it. the flight crew told not to come to work for a few weeks. >> and several people on the flight quarantining themselves. why have full team coverage this morning, beginning with the latest on amber vinson. tom llamas starts us off in dallas. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we are told that amber vinson is sick, but not seriously ill. as many are questioning her actions earlier this week and what the cdc exactly told her while her friend, nina pham, is improving. we're told her condition is good. overnight, 29-year-old amber vinson, the second nurse to be infected with ebola from texas presbyterian touched down in atlanta in this special bio containment plane. vinson, head to toe in hazmat gear, taking slow steps with the

help of her caregivers. the 29-year-old nurse raced to emory hospital where dr. kent brantley and nancy writevol, beat the disease. >> this is a servant leader. >> reporter: the ap reports she had close contact with thomas eric duncan, inserting catheters and drawing his blood. while it's still unclear how she became infected. nurses reportedly didn't wear hazmat suits until two day after duncan was first admitted. the big question this morning, just how many people did vinson come into contact with, following the stunning admission the very night before she checked herself into the hospital with ebola-like symptoms she flew on a frontier airlines flight from cleveland to dallas with 132 passengers. the airline and the cdc scrambling to contact the travelers. even though vinson was part of the 77 health care workers after

treating duncan, she was allowed to fly home two days after duncan's death to p see family and plan her wedding. on october 13th, flew back to dallas with an elevated temperature of 99.5. the next morning, she checked herself into the hospital. the cdc originally claimed vinson made a mistake flying. >> she should not have been on that plane. >> reporter: but abc news learned that she contacted them before boarding the flight, and the cdc gave her the all-clear because she did not meet the 100.4 degree threshold. >> it's really scary. >> reports)yí- fueling an already growing tide of anger against the cdc and t-t-health presbyterian. and this morning, the hospital issuing a mea culpa in a letter to congress. saying they originally misdiagnosed duncan, made mistakes afterwards and failed to provide accurate information. amber vinson has three relatives that work at kent state university in ohio.

she recently was in close contact with them so the cdc asking they not return to work until they are cleared. robin? >> a number of passengers and crew on the flight with amber vinson are in quarantine. and that frontier plane she was on made five more trips before being taken out of service and decontaminated. abc's david kerley picks up that side of the story for us. he's at dulles airport in washington. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning. another breakdown of the country's health defense system. and another story with frontier airlines saying it's been told that the passenger may have been symptomatic even though she was cleared by the feds to fly. that's triggered a frantic effort to contact the other passengers. this morning the frontier airlines jet is parked in denver, out of service. and according to the airline, will be disinfected for a fourth time with seat covers and carpet removed. vinson landed in dallas monday. that aircraft took five more

flights on tuesday, from cleveland,'laud ft. lauderdale cleveland,ant, and finishing in cleveland tuesday evening. but at least 2 of the other 132 passengers on the jet that flew from cleveland to dallas with the nurse with the high temperature, are quarantining themselves. >> if she was showing symptoms and she was contagious, and i was in an enclosed space with her for three hours, then that's enough of a reason for me to say that i should be isolated and i should be quarantined. >> i bleached all my luggage, washed all my clothes. and just trying to keep everybody, you know, completely away from my house. >> reporter: three dallas area schools will close for cleaning today because students or a parent were on the plane. a military reservist has been told to quarantine with his family in the dallas area. now, officials are admitting, even though cleared, vinson, the nurse, should not have flown, not just because of the elevate ed temperature, but because her

colleague was diagnosed on sunday with ebola. vinson was cleared to fly monday. it wasn't until wednesday that the head of the cdc finally said that those being observed should not take public transportation. and now this morning, out of an abundance of caution, frontier airlines is telling the crew to to stay home on leave, paid leave, for the next 21 days. george? >> thanks, david. president obama has scrapped his travel schedule for a second day to deal with the ebola emergency. after meeting with the cabinet yesterday afternoon, he said the odds of an ebola outbreak are extraordinarily low, and urged everyone to be calm. >> i want to use myself as an example just so that people have a sense of the science here. i shook hands, hugged, and kissed, not the doctors, but a couple of the nurses, at emory, because of the valiant work they did in treating one of the patients. they followed the protocols.

they knew what they were doing. and i felt perfectly safe doing so. >> let's bring in jon karl and dr. rich besser. jon, let me begin with you. the president also outlining what he's going to do as republicans like speaker john boehner, calling for a travel ban. others saying that the director of the cdc needs to be fired. >> reporter: well, the white house said the president has confidence in the director. and travel ban to west africa would be counter productive, hurting efforts to stop the virus at the source by hindering the flow of relief workers to and from west africa. but the president acknowledged they should have been more aggressive at the start. the bottom line for the white house remains the same. the president said that he is absolutely confident that they can prevent a serious outbreak of the disease here in the united states. and rich besser, what the president did not announce yesterday is something you've been talking about. taking any ebola patient to a special treatment center like the one in emory university like the one where amber vinson is right now.

>> i think that was missing from the statement. one thing the go teams, rapid response teams would be looking at, is whether a patient could be treated safely where they are, or whether they should be transported. but i think it's a stretch that any hospital can do this safely. >> rich, you had a chance yesterday to speak with dr. kent brantly. >> yes. brantly. >> yes. i talked to dr. yesterday. he reason an eye bowl la treatment unit in liberia. before they saw their first patient, they had two days of training from expert on how to do that. he said having that training ahead of time was lifesaving. >> thanks to rich and jon for that. the fear spreads. >> and the main focus is on the well-being of the two nurses. but there's such a ripple effect. ebola fears on wall street. stocks plunging after a wild day of trading. airline companies taking a big hit. rebecca jarvis has the latest on that at new york stock exchange. good morning, rebecca. >> reporter: hi, good morning. that's right. those airline stocks have been

extremely volatile in light of the ebola news. take a look at the stocks, the dow down 100 points. yesterday was a wild ride down 460 points before closing the day down 173. traders tell us this volatility is here to stay. the ebola news adds a new layer of uncertainty to an already uncertain market with concerns and fears of a global slowdown in china and europe. but what does it mean for your 401(k)? if you had put $10,000 into the market at the very beginning of the year, you would have at this point made about $76. robin? >> we know you'll be there for us. >> we know you'll be there for us. thank you. we will be covering the ebola crisis on abc.com.

now we want to switch gears to the massive hurricane in bermuda. and now gonzolo, the category 4 storm, strongest in years. gained strength overnight. >> maximum sustained winds are 140 miles per hour. that's a beast of a storm. you can see it here. about 540 miles south of bermuda at this point. moving north at about 9 miles per hour. as this thing comes through, friday is the big day for bermuda. that's the fear and why they're under a hurricane warning. the latest warning, red. that precautions to protect life and property must be rushed to completion today. that's how strong the wording is. watch it after it goes through bermuda, kind of die out, decrease in strength and clip newfoundla newfoundland. our concerns turn to the pacific because we have tropical storm ana that's affecting all of the islands of hawaii friday through sunday. the time period on that one. a lot going on. >> sure is. okay, ginger, thanks. and now to amy with the other stop stories. good morning. and begin with breaking news. a disaster unfolding at the top of the world. at least 50 people, including foreign tourists are reported missing after a blizzard there triggered an avalanche in the himalayas.

were supposed to debate. but only crist showed up on stage. governor scott refusing to come out. why? he was upset that crist had a special prop with him behind the podium. >> the rules of the debate i was shown by the scott campaign say that there should be no fan. somehow there is a fan there, and for that reason, ladies and gentlemen, i am being told that governor scott will not join us for this debate. ladies and gentlemen -- >> can anyone say fan-gate. crist had his fan by his legs to keep him cool. we should say, governor scott finally walked out, but the fan stayed put. how old are they? finally, winning the lottery has always come with a down side, dealing with all of those supposed relatives and friends coming out of the woodwork.

it can be unbearable. so this guy came up with a solution. he collected his $85 million lottery jackpot while dressed up as a bear. and not just any bear. let's point out, it was a yellow bear. this happened in china where they can appear in the news conference in costume and remain anonymous. the best thing is, he actually gave a news conference in the bear costume and he collected his $85 million and his friends and family have no idea. >> no clue. >> no idea. smart man. >> and he spoke bear. >> yes. >> his voice? >> i don't know. >> hey, amy, thank you. now to a big day for apple. the company is expected to unveil new ipads this afternoon. but it will not be much of a surprise. pictures of the new products leaked online wednesday. and apple only has itself to blame. abc neal karlinsky has that story for us. >> reporter: apple's last big event had a mysterious huge white box and all the drama they could hope for. this morning, not so much. ahead of apple's latest

it's really rude. >> bono rethinking it in this promotion video. >> sorry about that. a drop of megalomania, touch of generosity, dash of self-promotion. >> reporter: on a day when apple is unveiling its latest gadgets, that apology may be the biggest surprise. for "good morning america", neal karlinsky, abc news, seattle. >> a dash of self-promotion. now we have big news for our friend neil patrick harris. the multi-talented actor has been named the host of the 2015 oscars. he is no stranger to awards shows, though. now he's getting ready to take on hollywood's biggest night. >> can you take it now? >> reporter: it's widely considered to be the creme de la creme of hosting gigs. the academy awards. from billy crystal. >> i can look in anyone's eyes and i know what they're thinking. this better not go too late. i have six parent teacher conferences in the morning. >> reporter: to whoopi goldberg.

did once or twice, you have to start over, and so do they. there is a huge, like, collective inhale. >> don't want to let anybody down. >> you really don't. >> you guys did it. brilliant movie. you're fantastic in it. >> thank you so much. >> "birthman" opens nationwide tomorrow. and now for a world premier look at the epic adventure in the heart of the sea. this classic that inspired "moby dick," it is direct by ron howard and starred chris hemsworth. >> i'm ron howard. >> and i'm chris hemsworth. this is "in the heart of the sea." >> it's exclusive to "gma." i really hope you enjoy it. >> it's exclusive to "gma." i really hope you enjoy it. ♪
