US Rejects Nigeria's Request For Trial Ebola Drug (zmapp). by Nobody: 2:24pm On Aug 08, 2014
►The United States of America, yesterday, dashed the hope of an early cure for Ebola Virus victims in Nigeria when it refused to share the trial drug with Nigeria. US President Barak Obama says it would be premature to share the experimental drug with Africa.

►The Federal Government had earlier reached out to the United States Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC, in Atlanta, to request for the drug for treatment of EVD affected persons in Nigeria, but President Obama turned down the request, saying it would be far more beneficial to focus on prevention instead.

We are in deep trouble, God help Nigeria.

Of course. US does not do anything for free. Its either we are ready to do something beneficial for them, e.g sign anti-gay law. Or nothing gets to us.
