dr. tom frieden is the director of the c.d.c and he joins me now.st off, what can you tell people to assure them that this disease will not spread to atlanta or other parts of the united states as we bring these patients back? >> well, first off, it's really important to understand how ebola spreads and how it's spreading in africa. the outbreak there is the worst we've ever seen, but ebola doesn't spread from people who don't have symptoms. so if you have contact with someone who is exposed but not sick, you can't get it. second, ebola isn't spread by casual contact. it's not spread through the air. it's spread through body fluids. that's why, in africa, the two main ways it's spreading are by healthcare when there's not good infection control and funerals where there's handling of bodies. in this country, we have plenty of ways to make sure if a patient with ebola ends up here, we have isolation facilities in every major hospital in the country and isolation procedures that would prevent healthcare workers from becoming exposed or infected and, of
