7:06 am
of atlanta tuesday afternoon. >> we have the expertise to safely care for these patients. >> reporter: they contracted the disease treating african patients. the cdc next door is on alert, taking every precaution, confident they can keep the staff healthy and the disease from spreading. >> the bottom line is we know how to stop it. >> reporter: this has been quite a local story as well. the families here concerned that such a deadly pathogen being brought in. but those fears misplaced, the cdc just down the street has much more deadly bugs safely on lockdown. >> and joined by a professor of medicine and dr. rich besser. we heard steve osunsami talk about the anxiety in atlanta. are you facing any kind of a
7:07 am
brushback from patients or families at the hospital concerned this could spread? >> we have been hearing some concern about safety, and frankly we view that as an opportunity for education. >> and rich besser, we heard from dr. brantly's wife that his condition is improving. and he received an experimental see rum before he left africa. what can you tell us about that? >> there was discussion about one dose of an experimental serum coming, and he said to give it to his colleague. we don't know if this is the same, we don't know what exactly it was. look at it closely, because as you know, there's no known drug treatment or cure for ebola. >> and patients can seem to be improving and slip back. when will we know when someone is safe to go out in public? >> yeah, they will be monitoring
7:08 am
him closely. what's normally seen in a case of ebola, you have the acute symptoms, you are so sick, and patients who are going die, it's a downward spiral towards death. usually not able to a walk and slip back. i'm sure they'll monitor his liver and kidney function. they tend to get hit hard. i have talked to people who have treated ebola patients, but over the acute illness, they are able to go home, and no family members pick it up from the e o exposu exposure. >> the body learns to fight the infection. >> that's what you're looking for. since there's no drug, the immune system has to fight that. the signs are promising, and he is improving. >> also promising that his colleague is well or stable enough to travel to the united states. >> they are going to have to
7:09 am
assess her again, the journey can be ardous. the team will have to do the assessment. can she make the journey back to atlanta? >> thank you both very much. and now to the water emergency that has left hundreds of thousands of people without tap water in toledo, ohio. s to ins were found in the water, and they are waiting to be told it's safe to drink again. and on the shores of lake erie. >> reporter: good morning, there is a state of emergency here in toledo, ohio. 400,000 people unable to drink, cook or brush their teeth with the tap water here for a third straight day. all of this after toxins from an algae bloom got into the city's water system.
7:10 am
the algae bloom so big, visible from outer space. fueled by fertilizer off farmland into the lake. so poisonous, it can cause liver and nerve damage. prompting cleveland, detroit and buffalo and chicago to closely monitor or run extra tests on their own supplies. the great lakes providing drinking water for 26 million people. but harmful algae can pop up anywhere. >> it hit me hard. >> reporter: this man was paralyzed from washing his dog who went swimming in a lake four years ago. >> 2012, harmful blooms in 21 states. i believe the number now is up to 30. >> reporter: back in tooe lee doe, lining up in cars and on foot to get safe water. >> to take baths and wash dishes. we have a couple cases of water to drink. >> reporter: but the bottled water just isn't enough. this morning restaurants and
7:11 am
businesses closed again. even some hospitals canceling surgeries. this sign is all about algae, telling people not to go in the water if it looks like spilled green paint. there is a ban on swimming right now. the good news is it looks like the water crisis may soon be over. test results have been improving, the mayor expects to update people this morning. >> all right. spilled, green paint. i agree. and over to dan harris with the morning's other top stories. >> good morning, everybody. start with new video of the devastation caused by a massive earthquake in southwest china. showing some of the 12,000 homes flattened. more than 400 people killed. but that death toll could rise sharply. rain is making the search for victims extra-challenging right now. and breaking overnight, israel calling a temporary cease-fire after a harsh rebuke

gambler died of an apparent heart attack, the tenth to die since the racing season opened at del mar three weeks ago. three from natural causes, the others put down following catastrophic injuries on the brand new turf. >> when you have ten horses dying, and can't pinpoint one thing or another, it is a mystery. >> reporter: track officials shut down the turf course until saturday to soften it and consult experts. and the synthetic surface will be replaced for next year. >> it's always about safety. >> reporter: but track officials and experts say it may not be the track at all. >> a lot of rush to get a horse here. in combination with the pressure and the high purses, some horses may be running that aren't
