(Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Tuesday that some progress is being made to tamp down the Ebola outbreak in West Africa but much more needs to be done.
"We are nowhere near out of the woods yet in West Africa," Obama told reporters as he met top advisers, including Ebola response coordinator Ron Klain.
Obama urged Congress to approve, before leaving on a holiday recess in mid-December, the $6.2 billion that he has requested to fight the virus blamed for thousands of deaths, including two people who died in the United States after becoming infected in West Africa.
