CHUCK TODD: Has the world done enough though?

SUSAN RICE: No, they haven’t done enough. And we are pushing very hard for everybody to do more. This is going to take all hands on deck, because the goal has to be to contain this epidemic in the three countries that we’ve seen in West Africa to try to prevent its spread and to provide the appropriate care to those that need it.
