US made experimental Ebola drug, ZMapp, has
been proven by scientists to cure the virus 100% in Rhesus Monkeys.18 of the
laboratory monkeys were infected with the deadly virus, including those
suffering the fever and hemorrhaging characteristics of the disease and had
been hours from death.
The research
showed that Monkeys treated five days after infection survived, and five days
of infection in the animal has been said to be the equivalent between 9 to 11
days after infection in humans. Three other Monkeys who got no Zmapp treatment died
from the virus days later.
The clinical trials for the experimental
drug (ZMapp), which is produced by Mapp Biopharmaceutical in SanDiego, USA, is
in the works in Mary land USA. Human trials for the drug is set to begin in
three African countries this week, of which Nigeria is one of them. The human
clinical trials require a healthy individual to be infected with the Ebola
virus then treated with the experimental drugs. It is set to begin on Tuesday
