Ebola, the disease that caused an international scare two years ago, may be on the ropes.A recent study led by the World Health Organization showed a new vaccine to be "highly effective" against the fatal disease, proving that even the most stubborn public health problems can be solved when the world's best minds work together.First identified in 1976 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ebola is spread through animal-to-human or human-to-human contact or through exposure to contaminated items such as linens or syringes.

China says its first domestically-developed Ebola vaccine is a major medical breakthrough as it passed the Phase-II clinical test and gains permission for clinical trials overseas.On Friday, state broadcaster China Central Television (CCTV) cited a report by the country's Academy of Military Medical Sciences (AMMS), the developer of the "rAd5-EBOV" vaccine, as saying that tests show that the vaccine is both safe and protective.One single shot is capable of producing an antibody against Ebola virus "14 days after inoculation with the amount reaching the peak resistance at 28 days," the AMMS said.

Almost a year after the official end of the Ebola outbreak in west Africa, the final results from one of the only vaccine trials for the virus are now in – and they look very promising.This is the only data we have on a vaccine against Ebola in humans, and it looks very safe and highly effective during an outbreak setting.Writing in the journal The Lancet, an international team led by the World Health Organisation (WHO) has shown the rVSV-ZEBOV vaccine produced by Merck can protect both individuals and a whole population through its trials in Guinea.

Confirming initial findings from the summer of 2015, an international group of researchers a few days ago reported high effectiveness in their final analysis of data from the VSV-EBOV ring vaccination trial in Guinea, as a team from China reported results from a phase 2 trial of an adenovirus-based vaccine.Though VSV-EBOV is furthest along in development, with steps under way to make it available for use in a future outbreak, work continues on a host of other vaccine candidates.Experts say different vaccines might be useful for different purposes, such as a quick-acting one that can help tamp down outbreaks and a long-lasting one for protecting frontline healthcare workers.
