A widening outbreak of deadly Ebola fever is threatening to overshadow next week's summit between African leaders and President Obama.
The three-day conference will bring nearly 50 African officials to Washington, D.C. for an unprecedented gathering that officials said could be a turning point in U.S.-Africa relations.
But now, Obama administration officials are competing with increasingly dire news out of West Africa, where Ebola is ravaging populations in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.
At least two African leaders will forgo the conference as a result with the death toll topping 700.
And while the event's agenda has not changed, President Obama said Friday that some international guests will undergo additional screenings next week to ensure safety.
"We are taking the appropriate precautions," Obama said at a press conference.

You Freepers don't need to worry because we're taking the appropriate precautions!
WOW!
Barry sure looks like crapola in that photograph.
zer0 and his CDC will spread it to white middle class communities using free blanket giveaways(figuratively speaking). And inoculate his Amish,LaRasa and Islamics for his takeover move. im pretty good at killing people
Out of Africa: 0bama and Ebola.
That's why they call it $h!t.
and eubonics
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
“”We are taking the appropriate precautions,” Obama said at a press conference.”
I’m guessing a optional day trip to Johns Hopkins or Bethesda for the weary travelers, at our expense of course.
‘Appropriate precautions’ to Ebola meaning less than zero.
Before Obama, I would have taken your post with a grain of salt.
Now, dear mercy, it sounds very credible.
Even though I took flak here at FR for my compassionate opinion that Dr. Brantly and the nurse should have been brought here.....
......I questioned Obama signing off on this .......as he hates anything Christian.......
And doesn’t have a compassionate bone in his body......
Now I truly wonder if his plan includes introducing ebola here......actually I believe it has come in with the illegals already....
...and he allowed the missionaries to return home to be the scapegoats.
My husband doesn’t buy this.........but just wait!
My husband doesnt buy this.........but just wait!
The longer we wait, the deader we'll all be.
Imagine being employed as a member of the housekeeping staff at the hotels where these African diplomats will be staying. They should be issued Hazmat suits and biohazard bags. Wouldn’t want to be them.
Ping...
Fifty heads of state, their entourages, their bodyguards,
their local media—any of whom may have been in ebola areas—and all mixing it up in DC...
We will be able to go to any Doctor and use any insurance policy,PERIOD!
Yeah...
What could possibly go wrong?
Nothing will go wrong.
Africans are known for their intelligence and impulse control.
He doesn’t actually have to introduce ebola here - just make us all fear it. Remember - terrorism is about fear.
