I need to stay away from the news or my head may explode.How about some good news then? Too early to speculate but a good start:Two American aid workers who became infected with the Ebola virus while caring for patients in West Africa have improved significantly after being treated with an experimental serum. The monoclonal antibody serum, produced by Mapp Biopharmaceutical, had never been used in humans, but it did show positive effects in monkeys infected with Ebola. Experts urged caution, saying that few conclusions can be drawn from two cases. Meanwhile, physicians at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York were handling a possible Ebola case with care, and they say it is unlikely the patient has the deadly virus.
