I READ THE WHOLE THING SO YOU DO NOT HAVE TO, IT IS HONESTLY LIKE DIGGING OUT AN OLD PAIR OF WORK BOOTS AND PRAYING THEY STILL HOLD UP IN A DOWNPOUR, BECAUSE THE DR CONGO IS OFFICIALLY ROLLING OUT VACCINE TRIALS FOR FRONTLINE HEALTH WORKERS RIGHT AT THE VERY CENTRE OF THE COUNTRY'S EBOLA CRISIS, AND THE THING IS OFFICIALS ARE TURNING TO THE ERVEBO VACCINE WHICH THEY ACTUALLY USED IN PREVIOUS OUTBREAKS BEFORE, SO NOW THEY ARE TESTING IT DIRECTLY ON THOSE FRONTLINE STAFF, AND HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE HOPING THIS SPECIFIC VACCINE WILL BE EFFECTIVE AGAINST THE CURRENT STRAIN THEY ARE FACING RIGHT NOW, WHICH MEANS EVERYTHING COMES DOWN TO WHETHER THIS TRIAL ACTUALLY PROTECTS THOSE WORKERS. THAT IS THE SITUATION.
