Aizebioje: While I think this is a good development, I do not appreciate their hasty release from the hospital. Every ebola survivor should be kept a while longer and monitored because there's no telling what'll happen if this disease starts to spread @ a rate faster than it is already spreading... My opinion though!!!

Are you wiser than those that discharged him.

oh very nice

And they cant give Nigeria the vaccine ,but available for their own citizen.AMERICA i hail ooh

Lobolintin: 4uck them US... Keep ur drugs, and 4ck up.. We will develop something stronger soon.. And kudos to you Dr..

The intellectual laziness that affects us and kills us to the point where we become unnecessarily proud in our folly is just tiring. Heck, they've invested in research.

Go ram yourself as I'm sure you wouldn't even be able to post anything here if the US military had not invented the Internet! The same US you blame for government lapses.

Why are you suspecting him? Nigerians, smh

What are the chances of a newbie creating a topic with their first post? Pretty slim if you ask me.

The human race will always find a solution to every of its problems.

gud for him

Thank God Almighty that Zmapp worked on him. Atleast the drug has passed experimental and trial stage.

Atleast dis one Kari pinshur

can u see what having a good govt. that develops her country can do..

jst simple health facilities and a diligent research team...

SHAME TO ALL AFRICAN LEADERS BOTH PAST & PRESENT excluding Mandela, Julius Nyeyere etc

AMERICA- The hope of human race since 1830!

Hmmm

Can we thank great scientists and researchers who have used their God-Given Brains to develop this drug?

The doctor cheated death

He who fights and runs lives to fight anoda day

Meanwhile, how far our pesticide na, mortein abi na baygon

THE BLACK MAN WILL NEVER PROGRESS, IMAGINE THEM BEING ANGRY BECAUSE THE WHITIES DIDN'T GIVE THEM DRUGS. WHITE PEOPLE CAN'T KEEP SAVING YO POOR BLACK @$$$.

FUUHKING BEGGARS! BLACK MAN BEEN BEGGING SINCE 1410.

[size=15pt]SPONSOR SOME RESEARCH, OVERTHROW YO CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, AND QUIT BEGGING THA WHITIES TO COME SAVE YO BLACK @$&ES [/size]

Why blame America for using American drug to treat An American?

When are we going to wake from slumber and to remember that life is more than just embezzling funds and transferring them the stolen funds abroad?

Where does America and Britain get the funds to develop their countries? Are those funds not partly from the monies Africans stow away in their banks?

We have to wake up and use our brains.

He should thank his stars for his citizenship
the two Nigerian Doctors who died neva stood the chance,

Africa still has a long way to go
it's a shame

Wow

BRAV0O: Kudos to human race!

And america! Hope you have not started to giving ur ebola patients our pesticides ? Talk true !



And I will like to say this to you @seun

Have no fear okay


Those triber bigots on this forum will soon find a permanent cure!

Kudos to your English, sir.

hotmolo: U. S. Treating der citizens with zmap while refusing to let us hav there's and calling ours a pesticide. Well atleast we know they have the cure. Am happy for the doctor.

Well, there are reasons.....

1. The drug has only been made for lab tests so far – not for countering an epidemic
Less than 100 doses of the drug are currently available. So far the ZMapp serum has only been manufactured in quantities suitable for small-scale tests – most recently on 20 monkeys.However, it is effective – in limited animal tests so far ZMapp has been successful. When administered to monkeys one hour after infection, all animals survived. Two-thirds of the animals were protected even when the ZMapp treatment was administered 48 hours after infection.

2. ZMapp is made by a small San Diego pharmaceutical company, with only 9 employees…
Mapp has only nine employees – to put that into perspective, pharma giant Pfizer has 78,000. Mapp just doesn’t immediately have the capacity to scale up.“The manufacturer has been planning for phase 1 clinical trials and does not have the capacity to manufacture large quantities of the treatment,” says the US Center for Disease Control.

3. It’s not just a case of mixing some chemicals together
More importantly, making ZMapp is not a case of swirling some chemicals together in a test-tube. The monoclonal antibodies in ZMapp have to be produced from specially-grown and harvested cells.The special cells were initially made by fusing human cells with those taken from a mouse infected with ebola. After careful nurturing and selection, cells able to produce antibodies are cloned. These hybrid cells are then placed inside tobacco leaves. Why leaves? They act as a nurturing environment where the cells can reproduce and thrive. Initially mice were used to produce the antibody-rich liquid. Using leaves is quicker and cheaper.But even then, it’s not just a case of squeezing the leaves out – once the liquid is extracted from the leaves, it has to be purified and tested for strength.Then the antibodies have to be modified to be more acceptable to the human immune system.

You are making the wrong comment.....the question you should be asking is why Nigerian leaders have not invested enough in scientific and educational research so that we can produce our answer to Zmapp for ebola.

The US owes you nothing.

CoolHunk:
You don't have to say a word my dear. Your eyes. They tell a tale of beauty.

Chai!!! This kind online chiking! Let's see hw it ends.........

I will rather say thank zmapp ebola will be eradicated.god didn't do anything to prevent or stop ebola why should he be thanked leaving out d scientist who worked hard to find a cure?

That's a good news. Go and catch Ebola no more.
