3:00 Dose of Ebolology: Why is there no Vaccine for this??

Why is there no Vaccine for this??


There will be.  Treatment with antibodies (via ZMapp or blood trunsfusion) works very, very well.  That is a promising sign that vaccination will be successful.  Human trials begin in West Africa in January, as led by Institute for Human Virology and others.

Stay tuned: this is a major tool to be added to the toolbox imminently.
