Ebola's first infection outside Africa

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

A Spanish nurse becomes the first person to be infected with ebola outside of Africa. We talk to the World Health Organisation and ask whether airlines should do more to stop the spread of the deadly virus. Plus, Brazil's elections go into a second round, with the economy looming large for voters. And with the streets of Hong Kong slowly returning to normal as student protestors agree to formal talks with the government, we talk to the head of the British Chamber of Commerce in the city to find out how much business damage has already been done. Plus, is it the end of the fairytale? Disneyland Paris is bailed out with a $526m rescue package. And we hear how Colorado's marijuana growers are going legitimate, with the help of the IT crowd.
