Obama's day: Ebola, Islamic State, consumer protection

President Obama resumes the semblance of a regular schedule Friday as he and his staff continue to deal with the threat of Ebola.

The president also has events devoted to the domestic economy and the military battle against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

Obama, who suspended his regular schedule the past two days because of Ebola, plans to give a speech in the late morning to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

His topic, according to the White House: "Steps the administration is taking to safeguard American consumers' financial security."

In the afternoon, Obama meets with members of his National Security Council to discuss the campaign against the Islamic State.

Obama will also speak with aides about ongoing efforts to contain Ebola, two days after a second nurse in Dallas was diagnosed with the virus. The nurses had been involved in treating a man who died of Ebola.

After an emergency meeting with aides on Thursday, Obama said: "If we continue to take the steps that we need to, then this will be contained."
