 Test of Ebola drug has started in the African country Mali by vaccination of 3 health workers.
It was made known Thursday, October 9, according to NBC News.
Thus, it is the first vaccine to be rushed into clinical trial in the course of the ongoing epidemic of the deadly tropical virus currently ravaging West Africa.
The reports say that there will be months until the drug becomes available, and even that amount will allegedly be not enough for mass vaccination, but mainly for health workers. Meanwhile this year’s Ebola outbreak has already claimed nearly 4,000 lives and got more than half of that infected.
