Outbreak in West Africa



Doctors from the Siriraj Hospital in Bangkok have created a new vaccine
against the deadly Ebola virus.

 

MOSCOW, September 29 (RIA Novosti) - Doctors from the Siriraj Hospital in
Bangkok have created a new  <http://en.ria.ru/world/20140924/193239826.html>
vaccine against the deadly Ebola virus, local news agency National News
Bureau said Monday.

The new vaccine will be able to activate the production of antibodies to
fight the  <http://en.ria.ru/world/20140926/193332817.html> Ebola virus,
according to the agency.

Last week, the World Health Organization (
<http://en.ria.ru/world/20140826/192355636.html> WHO) informed that
thousands of experimental Ebola vaccine doses from British company
GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and US company NewLink Genetics would be ready for use
and provided to the Ebola-stricken countries by 2015.

The Canadian government has already provided WHO with 800 doses of the
NewLink vaccine and is set to send thousands more in the upcoming months.
Some 10,000 Ebola vaccine doses will be provided by GSK.

The worst Ebola outbreak in history and the first to have occurred in West
Africa has claimed the lives of over 3,000 people, according to the latest
WHO estimates. Over 6,500 cases of infection have been registered. The
epidemic began in southern Guinea in February and spread to Liberia, Sierra
Leone, Nigeria and Senegal.

The Ebola virus is transmitted through direct contact with the bodily fluids
of those infected and there is no officially approved medication for the
disease as of today.
