Professor Isaac Adewole, the Vice chancellor, University
of Ibadan, Ibadan, has hinted that the institution has
set up a Committee on Ebola Prevention and
Preparedness, to try and produce Ebola vaccine.
Nigerian Tribune reports that the Vice chancellor, while
speaking at a town hall meeting in Ibadan, further revealed
that the institution’s virology laboratory would be expanded
and make sure it produce a vaccine that could be used to
prevent Ebola.
Professor Adewole said the university had concluded plans
to spearhead Ebola vaccine production, and advised
residents to dispel their fears as they would be adequately
equipped with necessary information about the virus.
He urged the federal government to investigate the
allegation that the late Patrick Sawyer was paid to import the
virus to Nigeria, and cautioned people against handshake.
He also advised the public to avoid sick people as Ebola
virus spreads quickly through body fluids of infected
persons.
Speaking also at the town hall meeting, Professor David
Olaleye, a virologist and head, UI Ebola Viral Disease
Prevention and Preparedness Committee, reiterated the
need for good hygiene, and pleaded with that people to
avoid contact with dead animals.
Meanwhile, it is not yet known if the outcome of their
research would be widely accepted as it would be recalled
that on August 19, 2014, one Dr. Rima Laibow, Managing
Director of US-based company Natural Solutions Foundation
claimed that Nano Silver has been deployed by her team of
scientists during treatment of Ebola patients in Africa before
the current epidemic outbreak, but surprisingly on August
21, 2014, the same company confirmed that the said drug
was not a cure for the deadly disease.
