If it proves safe to use in people, the fast-acting vaccine, deployed promptly, might help contain future Ebola outbreaks, scientists say in the Aug. 7 Nature Ebola is a highly contagious and often lethal viral infection. Including the first cases reported in 1976, nine outbreaks have sickened or killed hundreds of people in central Africa, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta. Wild primates are also susceptible. Earlier, researchers tested a vaccine that entails three injections of Ebola DNA over 2 months, followed 12 weeks later by a booster shot of an adenovirus modified to carry genes for Ebola virus proteins. The adenovirus cannot replicate, but the Ebola proteins it makes grab the attention of the immune system, which were primed by the earlier exposure to Ebola DNA (SN: 12/2/00, p. 358). While that two-step vaccine fostered impressive immunity in monkeys, it took several months to take hold, says Gary J. Nabel, a virologist at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in Bethesda, Md.

Four macaques that were not inoculated died within six days.

     Extractions: Conservation International August 27, 2004 (Torino, Italy) – Scientists fear that emerging evidence may suggest a new outbreak of the Ebola virus, which, in addition to threatening human lives, would threaten tens of thousands of great apes – in this case gorillas and chimpanzees – in the Republic of Congo. The announcement was made by the International Primatological Society (IPS) and Great Ape Survival Project (GRASP) at the IPS's 20th Congress, being held this week in Turin, Italy. Congo's Odzala National Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, contains an estimated 30,000 western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla), the largest such population of the endangered species in the world. Until late last year, hundreds could regularly be spotted in Lokoue Bai, a natural clearing in the park where separate groups of the gorillas predictably congregated. But whereas 45 groups of gorillas (each with an average of eight individuals) were once normally observed there, the number since May has plummeted to only nine groups. "We have not confirmed this as an outbreak of Ebola yet, but there are clear indications that we need to take that possibility seriously," said Dr. Dieudonnè Ankara, GRASP Focal Point for Congo-Brazzaville, who confirmed these recent developments. "This situation demands serious attention, since another Ebola outbreak would have devastating effects not only for wildlife, but for my neighbors who call the area home."

Such headlines shouldn't surprise us. Throughout history, infectious diseases have ravaged humanity, from the bubonic plague or "Black Death" of the 14th century to the "Spanish influenza" epidemic of the early 20th century. But Americans have become complacent about infectious disease. First came the discovery of penicillin in 1929 (followed by other antibiotics); then the start of widespread vaccination programs and improved sanitation and education. The scourge of smallpox was wiped off the face of the Earth in 1977; we assumed others would follow. In the 1980s, our world began to change. Newspaper headlines carried words like AIDS

HEALTH LIBRARY Health Library Men's Health Women's Health Care for the whole family An official at the ministry said 135 cases had been recorded since the virus, which has no known cure, struck in January in the dense forests of Cuvette-Ouest, some 700 kilometers (440 miles) north of the capital, Brazzaville. Authorities say the disease has now almost been brought under control. Ebola is passed on by infected body fluids and kills between 50 and 90 percent of victims, depending on the strain. It starts with a high fever and headache and can lead to massive internal bleeding. Authorities have cordoned off the affected areas and local people have been told not to touch bodies of those who have died and not to eat primates. Scientists believe the outbreak was triggered by the consumption of infected monkey meat. Bush meat is a staple among forest communities, and a delicacy in many cities.

Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) activities and foreign policy initiatives in Central Africa in response to the alleged threats posed by communism, black nationalism, and Third World populations are examined. The important roles played by political leaders including National Security Advisor Dr. Henry Kissinger, Department of Health, Education and Welfare secretaries Frank Carlucci, Jr. and Joseph Califano, presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, and economic notables Nelson and Laurence Rockerfeller are considered. The text hauntingly dissects the potential motives and administrative mechanisms underlying the prevalent belief that HIV and Ebola may have been deliberately deployed, and that the AIDS epidemic may be accomplishing what was desired.

Perkel The leader of the team that designed an Ebola vaccine and tested it in macaque monkeys expects to see no adverse effects in the human trial The subjects will be monitored for 1 year, but Nabel anticipates no adverse effects, because other DNA vaccines have already proven safe. Plus, the vaccine contains no infectious materials from Ebola virus. Instead, he told The Scientist The current trial is just the first test of a vaccine that Nabel's group described 3 years ago in a report to Nature , detailing the first successful test of an Ebola vaccine in a nonhuman primate. That trial employed a prime/boost strategy. Once a month for 3 months, macaque monkeys were injected with plasmid DNA encoding Ebola virus glycoprotein and nucleoprotein to prime the immune system. Three months later (5 months after the first DNA injection), the monkeys received an injection of crippled adenovirus containing the glycoprotein gene to boost the immune response. The team then challenged the vaccinated animals 3 months later with a lethal dose of Ebola virus (at 8 months). Significantly, the vaccine induced both humoral and cellular immune responses in the animals. For instance, recognizing that the prime/boost strategy's multipart regimen could prove impractical, Nabel's team in August described an accelerated vaccine in another

Jedenfalls hat man das mir immer erzählt, worauf ich wie blöde in meiner Bekanntschaft sammeln ging. In Australien gab es einmal einen berühmten Chirurgen namens Dr. Charles Billroth. An einem Morgen lehrte er seine Studenten, dass ein Arzt zwei Fähigkeiten brauche: Erstens, er darf sich nicht ekeln. Und zweitens, er muss eine präzise Beobachtungsgabe besitzen. Zur Demonstration tunkte er seinen Finger in eine abscheulich bittere Flüssigkeit, schleckte und forderte die Studenten auf das Gleiche zu tun. Die Studenten probierten - ohne mit der Wimper zu zucken - einer nach dem anderen von der widerlich schmeckenden Flüssigkeit.
