EBOLA VACCINE SHOWS PROMISE FOR GORILLAS AND CHIMPS

SUMMARY

Scientists believe that an Ebola vaccine could help protect gorillas and chimpanzees from deadly disease. It is estimated that the virus has ended up with a third of the primates.

Dr. Peter Walsh of the University of Cambridge, who led the research, told the BBC that they have shown that this is a safe vaccine.

And Ebola in humans and great apes is closely linked. Many human outbreaks have started after people came in contact with the gorilla.

To see if vaccination could help, a vaccine was tested on 10 captive chimpanzees at a research center at the University of Louisiana Lafayette in the US.

Six animals received the drug orally, and four were injected with it. They found that the vaccine gave an immune response and did not cause health complications, said Dr. Walsh.

The trial was carried out before the ban on chimpanzee research entered its place in the US.

VOCABULARY

Wiped out: aniquilat
Vaccine: vacuna
Further: més lluny
Threat: amenaça
Carcasses: cadàvers
Bushmeat: silvestres


CONCLUSION

It is good news that researchers find a cure for primate ebola.

Although I have deconcentrated that many people became infected by contact with these animals.

I do not understand why it was forbidden to continue the investigation. They are not supposed to saved many lives.
