"This is a big big deal;"


So is this.

Human Trial for Ebola Vaccine to Begin This Week

The first human trial for an investigational Ebola vaccine is set to begin this week.

The ongoing Ebola outbreak in West Africa prompted the National Institutes of Health to expedite safety testing for several vaccines already in the works. Since March, the deadly virus has killed 1,552 people, according to the World Health Organization, which predicted last week that the virus could infect 20,000 people in the next six months.

Ebola is too hard to transmit to be a threat to the West. The NGO's simply see it as a funding opportunity.

Definitely. And far too little is being done to address it.
