There is good news coming out from NIH of the soon to be tested vaccine that holds the possibility of helping to prevent the spread of the Ebola disease. This comes as the US missionary Doctors infected by the virus while caring for the infected in an African country are said to be responding to treatment.

"While there currently no known cure for the Ebola virus, a vaccine is in development and could go to trial soon. Dr. Anthony Fauci of the National Instutites of Health joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss treatment of the disease in the U.S."

As good as this news is, many are raising some valid questions at to the speed with which this news is coming out. Noting that this virus came to the limelight in 1976, it seems somewhat disturbing that, this is where we are today, in the fight against it. Do we have the right to have allowed those who died in the hands of this virus to die before the likelihood of the coming of this vaccine?

Here are some comments from concerned people,

    The virus has been known to the medical community since 1976. And from all the samples and cultures they've collected since that time and they still don't have a vaccine to control the amount of tissue damage caused by ebola virus, it makes me wonder how much funding ever went into this disease.
    Breast cancer gets a lot of attention and funding - allocate those funds into finding some kind of vaccine for the ebola virus.

    Ebola is a "CLASS "A " BIOLOGICAL WEAPON"......source Wikipedia under "transmission".....turns out this is prime time Economy killer, "marshal law" FEAR FACTOR , N.A.S.A papers, .....spread human to human 50-90 % death rate.......$200 million you say? It says only 1000 die annually & 1300 is the most ever in 2014....every life is valuable to God,but the world bank lets these people die daily when $1.00 would save them ,1000 people x $10,000= 1 million......$200 million would go along way to healthcare of these people? But I suspect it's for the "investment "of a vaccine $$$ and "lab rats" are cheap?

    The virus was spread on a large scale on purpose so they could make money off the vaccine with fear. Too bad it wasn't the t-Virus.
