Still Waters Posted November 13, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 13, 2019 A second Ebola vaccine is to be offered to around 50,000 people in the Democratic Republic of Congo, as part of a major clinical trial. The Johnson & Johnson (J&J) vaccine will be used alongside a vaccine made by Merck, which has already been given to around 250,000 people. Merck's jab has now been approved by the World Health Organization. More than 2,100 people have died in DR Congo, in the second largest Ebola outbreak on record. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-50315970 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+susieice Posted November 13, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Hopefully these vaccines will help stop the spread of a horrible disease to the people of the Congo. This is so badly needed. Wishing them the best. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
