I also saw a much more feasible cure for Ebola on Figure Out - http://www.figureout.com.ng/survivors-blood-feasible-cure-ebola/ |

Good news....but will take some more years of testing in humans before we can shout victory. In brief....we need a phase 1 to 4 trial...to establish things like safe dose, and any long term clinical effects. Still the road to beating Ebola lies with good hygeine, isolation and treatment of sick patients, and community co-operation. And a vaccine is not a cure(it protects)....the aim is still the development of an effective antiviral agent....and fospanivir appears promising. |

sanky346: So fast. And we hv been struggling to develop vaccine for HIV for over 20 years now with no success. There are lots of underlying global politics to this things The problem with developing a vaccine for HIV lies in the fact that HIV virus has several types and subtypes....for example,while Ebola has 5 types(so far!)....HIV has two main types, which are divided into several subtypes; said subtypes are divided into even more subtypes. Vaccines for HIV have been developed,infact there was a working one by 1995(which had even undergone human testing). Problem is it protects against some subtypes,but not all subtypes ....rendering it worthless.(Ouch). Right now,research on HIV is focusing on a cure....and there are drugs that are under development that may be able to untangle the HIV RNA from the human DNA....thus preventing the virus from damaging the body.(They are called transcription and translation inhibitors.as well as a gene product called TRIM5alpha....and they appear promising). Also, in the future, we may be able to genetically engineer humans who are resistant to HIV viruses by knocking out a receptor on the CD4 cells that allows HIV virus to enter the cells. 2 Likes |

sanky346: So fast. And we hv been struggling to develop vaccine for HIV for over 20 years now with no success. There are lots of underlying global politics to this things You are right, its really convinient that they can find the vaccine but not the cure. Who knows what saddistic end they hope to gain. They have been looking for ways to manage the rate of population growth in Africa since forever. After reading the book INFERNO by Dan Brown, I know I will not be taking any vaccines that that the Western world won't take with Africa. And the vaccine will be forever known as 'TROJAN' 1 Like |

How I wish this our thieving politicians will use our money for the kind of RESEARCH that will safeguard future. How sweet it will be if we can manufacture our own vaccines but alas, they will prefer to gO begging for it. Awoof they run belle Ooooo 1 Like |

If people take time out to read they'd discover this vaccine is only temporary. . . . Half bread better pass nothing sha. I think they made it that way with financial implications in mind, think returning customers. Anyway where man work na there I'm go chop! |
