From the land of universal health care where innovation is stifled, a break through vaccine has entered trials for dosage, side effects etc. in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and select, unnamed cities.

Ebola vaccine clinical trial in Halifax overwhelmed with volunteers - Nova Scotia - CBC News

Jointly funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Public Health Agency of Canada, the trial will test whether lower doses of the vaccine can induce an immune response in an individual.

The vaccine, known as VSV-EBOV, is also being tested in the United States in an effort to move onto further clinical trials in larger populations as quickly as possible, said the agency.


Say thank you.
 
The side effect from the vaccine will end up being an arm or something just inexplicably falling off, and the whole thing will get blamed on GWBush. You heard it here first.

Wow! Even when doing something so good, they feel the need to encourage perverted sexual acts.

Yay, more 13th-century moralizing from Paleocon.

There's a thing called abstinence. It's not that hard.
 
Heh...

The article is misleading. It makes it seem like people are chomping at the bit to get the vaccine. What it fails to say is that the unemployment rate in Halifax is hovering at about 9% and there are a lot of people who would gladly take a shot of this highly experimental, potentially hazardous vaccine, in order to make a couple grand.
 
Also some of the Asian countries started precautionary measure and have sent out their medical teams to the affected areas.

They could say, should not have sex.

Who the heck would join the study then?

On second thought, married men would join the study - they obviously wouldn't be missing out on anything.

Moral people. Even generally immoral people who wanted to make a buck.

Paleocon is a radical Catholic who wants the country and the world entirely under theocratic control of the Pope.

The "perverted sexual act" Paleocon is referring to is for any sex for which any contraceptive or condom is used, even if the couple married.

Even after a person is cured, for weeks it is still possible to convey ebola by the semen - the reason for condoms. In his view, ANY sex that is for ANY reason other than procreation is "a perverted sexual act."

He's posted such and even more extreme on the forum numerous times. All contraceptives in all circumstances is "perverted." But, then, so is everyone who isn't a strict Catholic anyway in his view. The Pope's word is the word of God himself, therefore defying anything the Pope says is "perverted," "evil" and even deserving of execution.
