8:07 am
good morning, dr. besser. first and foremost, these mandatory quarantines for medical workers returning from the ebola hot zone now in several states. why don't you support these measures? >> you know, when i hear this story of how she was treated, it's actually chilling. what's going to make it safer for us here in america is to get as many doctors, nurses, health care workers to go to west africa to knock it out there, and anything like this, it creates a disincentive. you know, when someone is treated this poorly when they return, why would anyone go over there to help? >> deter us from the really important work that needs to be done on the ground right now. so, let's talk about the public fear we're seeing over ebola. you say elected officials are creating an unnecessary sense of panic with these quarantines. >> i think they are. what people need to realize is that no one can spread this disease until they have symptoms, until they're losing body fluid, so having health care workers and others monitor themselves for fever and early
8:08 am
sign is a way to keep us safe. what we're seeing is states piling on and doing more actions to reassure the public but when the actions aren't based in fact, it helps promote the fear. we need our leaders to come back to us with those facts and that will help the public understand that really people are safe. >> dr. besser, thank you for your steady guidance. this morning. >> dr. besser weighing in, once again. thank you, rich. we move on there could be a new lead this morning in the search for the suspected cop killer eric frein on the run for more than six weeks. investigators have all descended upon a search in the hot zone after a woman spotted what could be a big clue right in her back clue and abc's linzie janis who has been on the story since the jump has this for her. >> reporter: a woman who lives inside the search area found blood in her yard and called police immediately. i've interviewed this woman before, and she sent us photographs of her discovery. this morning, police investigating every possible lead in the now six-week-long search for eric frein testing

8:11 am
launch a review of how the national highway traffic safety board administration is handling this recall, and abc's david kerley joins us with more on this story. >> reporter: paula, it has been a terrible week for the nation's top car safety regulator on this large recall leaving millions of consumers wondering if they need to actually replace their car's air bag. >> two, one. >> reporter: the complicated confusing air bag recall, an embarrassment for the obama administration. a week of conflicting unclear information. in a statement to abc news overnight, the department of transportation calling the air bag recall "not optimal" and promising "this investigation is far from over, and we will leave no stone unturned in the interest of public safety." on monday, the national highway transportation safety administration said 4.7 million owners needed to urgently replace their air bags. the next day a mea culpa, the agency saying it's nearly 8 million cars recalled and nhtsa was telling owners to go to its
8:12 am
website to find out if their car is recalled, but the site crashed, even democratic senators are shocked. >> i'm afraid that nhtsa and the auto industry is more interested in keeping costs low rather than keeping safety high. >> reporter: since 2004 there have been problems with air bag inflaters made by takata industries, in some cases they explode too strongly sending shrapnel through the bags and in more than 100 cases into people. >> when i seen the blood i thought i was going to die. it was all over my pant, all over the ground. my boots were covered by it. >> reporter: so, this morning the transportation department is conducting a review of an agency it oversees. >> for goodness sakes, act like the policemen that you are. don't let the manufacturers tell you what to do. >> reporter: while it has been a tough week, the government website where you can check if your car is recalled is back up and working, a nhtsa says despite the problems, the most
8:13 am
important thing is for drivers to have their cars checked if they are recalled. >> david, thank you. new fears this morning about the power of isis to inspire so-called lone wolf terrorists and police in new york city now say the man who attacked a group of cops with a hatchet was radicalized by jihadi videos. you can see that there, and in canada the gunman who stormed parliament told his mom he wanted to go to syria to fight. so, let's bring in abc's chief foreign affairs correspondent martha raddatz who is in washington this morning hosting "this week." martha, good morning. do we know enough to say that the attackers in the u.s. and canada were specifically motivated by isis and, if so, why is isis seemingly more successful in inspiring these lone wolves than al qaeda? >> well, they seem to have been inspired by isis. indeed, this is the central focus for isis. this is how they operate online reaching out to necessary disaffected, so-called lone wolves, who are essentially looking to join a group, find an identity. the traditional al qaeda did not have that as a goal except in
8:14 am
later years with anwar al awlaki who tried to do the same thing with online publications, but isis is very good at it, dan. >> unfortunately. what, if anything, can be done to stop this kind of thing? >> you know, it's really such a daunting problem. you can track people who try to go back and forth to syria or iraq, but if you have someone sitting in their basement wanting to join a group of terrorists, it's awfully hard to track them, and i think everyone agrees this will happen again, and there really is little to do to stop them except to try to counter the message somehow. >> right, the trick is do you try to stop them before they go overseas or do you keep them 46 here where they're even more of a danger to the rest of us? a tricky -- real conundrum for law enforcement officials. thank you. we should say martha has a big show. she'll be talking about homegrown terrorists, ebola in america and the upcoming midterm elections later this morning
8:15 am
