otiigba1: the Americans ve found a cure for Ebola, now they are waiting for african leaders to ask them for it so they can make as much money as possible from it, its all about money!

Na by force to buy from Americans? Did they stop Africans from doing research and finding the cure? If Africans develop a cure for Ebola, will America insist that they should not use it to treat their country men? Are they created to always find solurion to Africas problem and provide it for free to Africans?
Let our own leaders learn that nobody in this present age will have sleepless nights risk limbs and all to find solution to Africas problems. We always like to sit down and be spoon fed.
African government do not see the importance of educating its young. They only care about linning their pockets and expect the white man to solve all of Africas problems. If na you wey get uncle wey dey always expect like Africa, will you not get tired?

More than 200 people have died from Ebola in sierra leone. And that hospistal is at the centre of the epidemic. Only three people have survived, many have died.

I thought they said the disease doesn't have any cure? How then do survivors get to be certified 'ebola free?' What happens to the virus in their body then? Does it mean that the treatment they received killed the virus in them? It's kinda confusing. Health workers, pls clarify!

Basically it depends on your immune response to the virus....as well as the absence of a certain receptor on the surface of your cells.

lucky them. they must have a very strong antibody which can be used as the antidote for the virus.

researchers should exploit this means for the cure

How i wish Ebola can just enter Boko Haram camp. Lots of problem would have been solved.

grin grin I don't totally agree with your assertion. Imaging Boko Haram infested guys sneaking into their various towns and embracing/shaking hands with folks there. Some would even seek audience with their enemies (those in power), pretending to be their loyalists. Just imaging an infected Boko Haramist, pretending to be a Chibok parent, shaking hands with GEJ?
Re: PHOTOS: Meet The 7-year-old Sierra Leonan Boy & Others Who Have Survived Ebola by Nobody: 12:30pm On Aug 09, 2014
busuyem: I think the best way to end Boko Haram in Nigeria is send an Ebola victim to their camp since the virus easily spreads faster than bomb itslf. This may save our military men from untimely death of BH insurgency in this country. Can we call this the advantage of Ebola in Nigeria by the way?

Its called busuyem irrational thinking.

These stories are indeed beautiful, but why have these people not been taken in as test subjects to understand how they overcame the virus?

Boko Haram would be mad as hell this period. Ebola stories stealing all the limelight and attention.
I'm sure shekau is somewhere in the forest like:

I'm a Nigerian and a Medical Practitioner (Laboratory
Technologist) and I will love to volunteer in order to curtail the
Ebola epidermic. I wouldn't also mind to travel to any African
country where the virus has killed lots of people.
Seriously, I'm not just trying to seek attention here.
I'm also currently doing a research on how prevent the spread
and possibly, the remedy.
Please, who knows how I can go about it?

Typical of africans;i dnt care attitude. So if they've recovered, does that mean they can't re-contract d disease again? They were left to go home and interact with their ebola-ravaged community instead of taking to a safer place. Sms!

don't even pray for that, cos if it happens, they'll all turn into medical terrorists. In a month, they can infect thousands of people. So, be careful what you wish for.

God bless you. Ehen, its people like thid we like to hear not those that blame all evils on America.
Biko while at it, make sure they provide onlt the best protective gear for you o. Cos naija government will even cut coners to buy wrapper to cover their own mothers nyansh talkless another person. Abeg, if they start with mago mago just waka leave them with your life and health intact. Forget all thise that will say endure and do it for God. Wosai!
Do not rely on their empty life insurance BS. Do like our players did during the world cup. Demand for all you need and make sure you get them. From med supplies to fees.

Oya o, who sabi direction for him to apply undecided
