It's been announced that American and Spanish patients with Ebola are being treated with an experimental medicine that can prevent the disease from progressing in them, so in other words they are able to stop them from getting any sicker. The few patients that were given this medicine are doing a lot better and hopes are they are going to make a full recovery. They decided to skip all the normal steps in the testing process and to just give these few patients the experimental new medicine, but they don't have nearly enough to give this to people in Africa, cuz it's not in mass production yet

Good luck.

Great, now it's in Europe

At least they found somewhat of a cure. Hope they make a full recovery.

Why the hell did they take him to Spain. I'm sorry but Europe > 1 person

I hope it doesn't spread any further.

Why not?

Worldwide smash.

It takes time.

Omg, should we be scared?

Why are they bringing infected into Europe? Treat them or just leave them in Africa. It's a plot!

Maybe because they are Spanish? The article is in Dutch so I can't really fact check that though.

Bet you'd feel different if it was YOU or a loved one of yours.

He's a citizen of Spain and good for them for taking care of their people.

No, an infected! Next thing Ebola will be all over Europe.

The person they took to Europe would have been kept in isolation and a huge amount of care would've been taken to ensure it can't spread. They're fully aware of how serious and risky it is, so we don't need to worry imo, they're not going to let it spread

Stop letting the infected into the western world.

Would you rather they DON'T treat Ebola patients in the US or Spain where the medical technologies are more advanced than in Africa so that they can find a cure?

For all you know, there are already people who have been infected while travelling, who are in the EU breathing Ebola air all up in your face right this very second! Atleast in THIS particular case, the person isolated and being treated.

And anways, transmissions via air is highlight unlikely. People freak out so easily these days.

Transmission is only between bodily fluids, so you can't catch it by breathing the same air as the infected patient.
