Yesterday, Liberian
president, a statement published by the Liberian President’s website stated
that Liberia is to receive sample doses of experimental drug, ZMapp to treat
doctors infected with the Ebola Virus. The Statement said that the US had
approved a request from Liberia to ship the medicine after a US President
Barack Obama received a direct appeal from the Liberian Government on Friday.
However, US Health and Human Services (HHS) Department spokes person has said that the US authorities had simply assisted in connecting the Liberian government with the drug's manufacturer, insisting that the drug company had worked directly with the Liberian government.
Data shows that the deaths from Ebola have passed the 1,000 mark. Just yesterday, the World Health Organization (WHO) said 1,013 people have now died from Ebola.
