Still Waters Posted August 30, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Experimental ebola drug ZMapp has cured all of the infected monkeys it was tested on, lifting hopes it could be used to fight West Africa's deadliest ever outbreak. Scientists reported the drug healed all 18 monkeys who were given a lethal dose of the virus. http://news.sky.com/...in-monkey-trial 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilly Posted August 30, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Poor wee monkeys. But in this case all 18 monkeys were cured. Sad that they had to be made ill, but how many lives they may be saving is so important. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad that they had to be made ill, but how many lives they may be saving is so important. I appreciate that... but still feel sorry for all 'lab rats'. Ebola Monkeys and 60-a-day Beagles have feelings too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
