rickkid: Bla bla bla abeg go sit on a toilet, we no get your time.

rickkid: Continue deceiving yourself. Along with your fake Shekau and the rest of your screwballs from central casting directed by Jerry Bruckheimer.
The people you work for are already conceding defeat because they've realised that Nigeria is not Libya or Iraq. The format you used there will not work here.

So try harder.

rickkid: Abeg go and die you worthless yankee govt shill nobody is falling for your cheap trick. You can script and record as many videos as you want, it won't change the fact that there's NOTHING you can do to stop the rise of Nigeria. IDIOT.

podosci: Thats not Nigeria

Billyonaire: So, you are saying that Chris Oyhakilome is not an adulterer ? You mean Anita is lying ? You are wiser than this brov.

Billyonaire: No one is bigger than the truth. I refuse to give names and descriptions. But if pressed, I will give names and shame this wonderful preacher and great healer that can not control his John Thomas. You guys want to make him holier when his wife that knows him better says he is a fraud and adulterer ?

Demdem:
Wesfool, ur comment brought me into this thread.
U know I normally don't roll here.
U obviously don't suuck jonaadaft balls alone but also Chris. How do u sleep at night?

Dragonking: Ogbeni post video of the girl singing na. Is that one hard again?

Billyonaire: Christian Oyhakilome is a professional womanizer and adulterer, in PH he was banned from using a popular hotel which he sends his surrogates to book an entire floor of 10 rooms and fix 10 girls inside. The fucker will come in the dark hours with camouflaging convoy to be whisked into any of the rooms. Smartness isnt so smart. He thinks anyroom he lands there is a girl, thats true. And since all rooms in the entire floor is booked, no one can see him come in or go out of the floor. But what he doesnt know is that the owner of the hotel is a real pastor based in US and when the hotel owner heard his escaped he flew down and laid siege and warned him never to come to his hotel again. This is not Super Story, this is what your jerry-curl haired, bleached-skinned, adulterer, and most recently, the latest Bachelor pastor has been doing. Glory to God.

Dragonking: Can you prove that his daughter sang yesterday that her father has been in canada for a month now? Can you post a link to the video of this your claim? If you cant then you are the one either drunk or intoxicated. So quit lying for your pastor.

TrollMan: Why always Baaaaaad Prophecies?

Surely nothing good can come out of SCOAN except...




TMan.

hungryboy: are u gay?

mikeansy: Na wa o

We need him out of Douglas house!

Let him contest for Presidency!

arewanationz: This is no place for arsse lickers and AGIPs.

Rawani: I find it interesting that you opined that the negotiator might be speaking on the bidding of the President because as much as i detest his leadership style and incompetence, he seems to be a good man who has been cornered by high-level wickedness and conspiracy in the Presidency by ill advisers/ethnic warlords like Edwin Clark and Dokubo, as well as within the ruling party. I find it difficult, though possible, to believe that Dr. Davies would independently compromise his professional relationship with the Presidency and his personal reputation, to make false accusations before informing Jonathan. Simply unlikely.

noblezone: Are you aware that when Boko Haram wanted to discuss with government, that arresting Sheriff was one of their strong demands?

anago900: same ol rubbish... Ali modu sheriff is also a southern is insanity one of the criteria for you to open your smelly gob...

barcanista: THE AUSTRALIAN NEGOTIATOR HAS BEEN THE TARGET/VICTIM OF A LONG CON STRATEGICALLY DESIGNED TO WHITTLE DOWN THE GROWING INFLUENCE OF SOUTH SOUTHERNERS AND SOUTH EASTERNERS AT THE TOP LEVELS OF NIGERIA'S SECURITY AND DEFENSE INSTITUTIONS


he said Ihejerika(SE) not Minimah(SS). Beside he even mentioned Sheriff (NE)

anago900: one word..... BALDERDASH!!!!!!!!

The only clinical trial data on the experimental Ebola drug ZMapp shows it is 100% effective in monkey studies, even in later stages of the infection.

The researchers, publishing their data in Nature, said it was a "very important step forward".

Yet the limited supplies will not help the 20,000 people predicted to be infected during the outbreak in West Africa.

And two out of seven people given the drug, have later died from the disease.

ZMapp has been dubbed the "secret serum" as it is still in the experimental stages of drug development with, until now, no public data on effectiveness.

Doctors have turned to it as there is no cure for Ebola, which has killed more than 1,500 people since it started in Guinea.

Cocktail
Researchers have been investigating different combinations of antibodies, a part of the immune system which binds to viruses, as a therapy.

Previous combinations have shown some effectiveness in animal studies. ZMapp is the latest cocktail and contains three antibodies.

Trials on 18 rhesus macaques infected with Ebola showed 100% survival.

This included animals given the drug up to five days after infection. For the monkeys this would be a relatively late stage in the infection, around three days before it becomes fatal.



Scientists say this is significant as previous therapies needed to be given before symptoms even appeared.

One of the researchers, Dr Gary Kobinger from the Public Health Agency of Canada, said this was a huge step up from previous antibody combinations.

"The level of improvement was beyond my own expectation, I was quite surprised that the best combination would rescue animals as far as day five, it was fantastic news.

"What was very exceptional is that we could rescue some of the animals that had advanced disease."

Human implications?
However, there is always caution when interpreting the implications for humans from animal data.

A Liberian doctor, one of three taking the drug in the country, and a Spanish priest both died from the infection despite ZMapp treatment.

William Pooley, the first Briton to contract Ebola during this outbreak, has been given the experimental drug ZMapp as were two US doctors who recovered.

The course of the infection is slower in humans than macaques so it has been cautiously estimated that ZMapp may be effective as late as day nine or 11 after infection.

But Dr Kobinger said: "We know there is a point of no return where there is too much damage to major organs, so there's a limit."

The group wants to start clinical trials in people to truly assess the effectiveness of the drug.


The drug is unlikely to help the 20,000 people expected to be infected
Commenting on the findings, Prof Jonathan Ball, a virologist at the University of Nottingham, told the BBC: "Before, ZMapp was a total mystery.

"This is an incredible improvement on those earlier cocktails, to have 100% clearance and most importantly that clearance when they've started to show outward signs of infection."

Referring to the seven treated patients, he added: "Clearly there is the caveat that all evidence in humans is anecdotal and no hard evidence has been released on what happens to the virus in those patients."

Prof Peter Piot, the director of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said: "I never thought that 40 years after I encountered the first Ebola outbreak, this disease would still be taking lives on such a devastating scale.

"This well designed trial in non-human primates provides the most convincing evidence to date that ZMapp may be an effective treatment of Ebola infection in humans.

"It is now critical that human trials start as soon as possible. "

Ayatullah: @Poster, you are a prophet of doom! At this point in time what we need is uplifting headlines. You could have dorn the garment of an optimist by giving your headline: Ebola Survivors are now immuned.

Seyitosino: what's the difference?

Dr. Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol were flown separately from Liberia to Atlanta's Emory University Hospital -- the first human patients with Ebola to ever come to the United States.
Writebol was released from the hospital Tuesday. On Thursday morning, Brantly walked out of that same hospital with no signs of the virus in his system, doctors say.
Their recoveries seem to offer hope for those fighting the largest Ebola outbreak in known history. More than 2,400 people have been infected by the virus, according to the World Health Organization, and it's killed more than half.

But ZMapp is not an approved treatment for Ebola; in fact, no approved, proven treatment exists. So governments, aid organizations and scientists around the globe are racing to find a way to stop the virus.
Here are answers to questions about Ebola patients and treatments for the disease.
1. Are Brantly and Writebol cured?
Mostly. For Ebola patients to leave isolation, two blood tests had to come back negative for the Ebola virus. So their bodily fluids, like blood, sweat and feces, are no longer infectious.
"Nancy is free of the virus, but the lingering effects of the battle have left her in a significantly weakened condition," Writebol's husband, David Writebol, said in a statement.
Some doctors believe the virus can remain in vagin.al fluid and se.men for up to several months, according to WHO. Dr. Bruce Ribner, an infectious disease specialist at Emory, said there is no evidence Ebola has ever been transmitted this way, but the risk was discussed with both patients.

2. Are they now immune to Ebola?
Doctors believe surviving Ebola leaves you immune to future infection. Scientists have found that people who survive Ebola have antibodies in their blood that would provide protection against that strain of the virus in the future, and possibly against other strains as well.
But, as you can imagine, they haven't tested this theory by infecting survivors with the virus again.
There are four Ebola strains known to infect humans; the Zaire ebolavirus causing the current outbreak is the most common.
