Ebola: After Rejecting Nigeria’s Request For Ebola Drug, America Gives It To Spain

vaccine-EbolaNigeria officially requested the ZMapp Ebola cure from the American government last week, the request was subsequently turned down with the excuse that it was still an experimental drug and further tests have to be done before it could be safe for Nigerians.

A lot of Nigerians have expressed opinions that an unsafe cure is better than no cure at all and considering the fact that two Americans have been cured with the drug and our Ebola problem was actually deliberately created by an American (Patrick Sawyer who deliberately brought Ebola to Nigeria), America should give us some consideration.

This was not to be and they have consistently refused us the drugs, Now as Vanguard reports they have delivered the drug to Spain to save the life of a missionary infected in Africa. Read Vanguards report below:

The drug called ZMapp arrived at Madrid’s La Paz-Carlos III hospital where the 75-year-old missionary was being treated in isolation, the health ministry said in a statement late on Saturday.

Spain’s drug safety agency allowed the “exceptional importation” of ZMapp under a law that allows “the use of non-authorised medications in cases where a patent’s life is in danger and they can’t be treated satisfactorily with an authorised medication,” it said.

The Roman Catholic priest, Miguel Pajares, was one of three people who tested positive for Ebola at the Saint Joseph Hospital in the Liberian capital Monrovia where he worked.

He was brought back to Spain on Thursday on a medically equipped Spanish airforce plane, the first patient in the fast-spreading Ebola outbreak to be evacuated to Europe for treatment.

Spanish health authorities said Thursday the priest was in a stable condition. The hospital is not providing medical updates for the missionary at his request.

The military flight also evacuated Spanish nun Juliana Bonoha Bohe, 65, who worked at the same hospital as Pajares in Liberia and who was found not to have Ebola.

The Spanish charity Pajares worked for, the Hospitaller Brothers of St. John of God, had asked Madrid to bring to Spain for treatment two African missionaries infected with Ebola who also worked at the hospital but the request was turned down.

One of those two missionaries, a Congolese nun, died on Saturday due to Ebola, the charity said.

There is no proven treatment or cure for Ebola, which causes severe fever and, in the worst cases, unstoppable bleeding. Some 55 percent of cases in this outbreak have been fatal.

Two Americans infected with Ebola while treating patients in Liberia have shown signs of improvement since being given Zmapp back in the United States but health authorities say it is too early to tell if the drug had anything to do with that.

ZMapp, a treatment made by private US company Mapp Pharmaceuticals, is still in an extremely early phase of development and had only been tested previously on monkeys.

The use of the medication has sparked an ethical controversy as experts call for it to be made available to African nations.

  1. America to me is the most wicked nation on earth, what stops u guyz for coming to the aid of africa mostly on nigeria who has requested for the drug for ebola , but, u guyz turned our request down but hv giving the same drug u refuse to deliver to africa to spain ,what a segregation is dis I hate america from today on wards fuck u guyz to hell with u america

  2. I have always told people that some of these diseases were actually produced from the laboratories by the western world to reduce the growing population of the black race. Or how do you explain the very flimsy excuse given us just about five days ago and the release of same ‘unverified’ cure to an European country. Its simple, blacks can continue to die in hundreds but no single American or European should. Watch out, they will soon come around saying they are trying to help out with some aids that are actually to further enslave us. Professor Iwu talked about how bitter cola stopped the growing of this virus in the laboratory. Instead of someone to start thinking of how to see how we can further see the possibility of developing something out of that, we are waiting on America that will never do anything for you for free.

  3. Who know if theuy are not the one who sent this deadly virus to Africa so as to accertain power and right to govern Africe and they keep saying “Say No to RAcISM but they are the forefront praticing it…. They are wicked and cruel the adviser of the US president is wicked and brutal…. God help us Africa

  4. Do you know the real definition of blood money.its money you made cheating someone else.the tears of a brokem heart reaches the ear of God faster than that of a happy heart.so stop cheating other to climb the step of success labour solve genuine problems not artifically generated problems or problem generator, render genuine service that is what attract good money.
    Hear for people who have ear no matter where you are or the little you do be honest dnt cheat that is the biggest challenge of advertising industry they do not delliver what they advertise. They take money to advertise bad product to the mass they may think is not their business but anyone that gets hurt by what they advertise they share in the soorow of that people.
    So if you think you have good money you need to recheck again.

  5. It’s not today that America has been behaving so stupidly, they invent a disease, tell us is in Africa, give us the medications and request for oil and money. Imagine a community of whites that sleeps with dogs and other animals what type of disease cant you get from there? Father sleeping with daughter, brother having sex with his own mom, they wont bring that out in there own news but let sure thing come out from Africa, CNN,BBC will broadcast as if it has never happened before. 9/11 will by American government yet they go to Arab countries stealing their natural resources all in the name of fighting terrorist. We were told ebola has been in Africa since 1978 if am right, Y is it just coming up now as a deadly disease from west Africa. Your generations will suffer for what you have done to people, people you have killed all in the name fighting terrorist. Let your citizens know the truth that you killed there families in 9/11. Russia has the evidence, Khalaz

  6. dis is a clear warning to us Africans and our govt. ir is long overdue dat African govt ought to stop depending on d west. we nid to look inwards and develope our capacity…abolish corruption and develope our land. dnt blame america o. our govt shud stat doin d ryt t in and protect its citizens

  7. Am shock on hearing dis wicked act dat american re bringing.if we look around u will see we black re bless but cause with bad leaders.instead of investing great tins they prefer wasting money on d fuckin so call election.i pray God we deliver d cure in hands of our young doctors in jesus name

  8. when will africans stop blaming d west 4 their woes,instead of africans 2 develop themselves they r busy fighting 4 power,killing one another n cheating their fellow brothers.it hightime africans developed themselves n stop blaming others 4 their woes

  9. When will Africans desist from their colonial mentality and start taking their destinies into their hands? Why must we depend on white people in anything we do? If America refused to give us the medicine but sent it to Spain, it shows a high level of hate and racism but must we fold our arms and cry like babies over it? why not we stand united and find a solution instead of crying for assistance?
    Humans in other continents see Africa as a jungle full of evil, unintelligent and uncivilized people, why because we made it so. Lets remember that America and other developed countries are where they are today because of unity, hard-work and determination, no country pushed them to their high level of success.
    Lets not always blame the government because the governments are the people and we the people makes the government. I believe if we all stand united as one with a beautiful and determined heart of building a developed Africa, we will surely get there.

  13. Isn’t it foolish enough for us to be asking and begging for ebola drug. Why can’t we try to discover the cure for it. When it comes on how to dupe pple of there wealth that when we show immense wisdom. What a big blow to our medic,.

  14. This is all about the legalisation of lesbianism/homosexualism (same sex relasionships) call it whatever u wish, this is so unfair, i’ll advise our sanate to stand firm on their NO to such abnormality, nija we shall reach the pinacle in Jesus name. We say no to satanic worship of any manner…

  15. I am very happy with these story, they should keep it 4 thereself only since nigeria can nevery be independent alway dependent on white monkeys like america. They are all dependent on us,what is the use of our mineral resources? Why can’t we use them on our peole to invest on all these things? We all are human beigns we have the brains like them but we are always waiting 4 them to give us every thing that is why we nigerian are always left behind. In leadership f9,security f9,everything of nigeria f9. Don’t blem america let’s blame ourself and I said this with loud voice only REVOLUTION can change nigeria

  16. Our leaders,this is a very big leason.Stop squandng our oil money for nothing!use our oil money in developng ur citizens and create more Jobs for unnemployed.Concentrate more on developng ur country, rather than fighting those who are using their money on their citizens.stop diverting our oil money to ur personal pocket!it will not do u any good!

  17. AMERICA—AFRICA
    AMERICAN—AFRICAN
    A(me)RICA—A(f)RICA
    In my equation in here I got this.
    ARICA—ARICAN.
    In that case some thing is wrong some where. So be wise. Very soon God will punish the wicked. I have a strong feeling since the ebola case that this must be a set up to Nigeria. But God will fight for us and we will hold our peace as long as we did not accept that destructive idea of homosexual from obama, do you think he can be your friend or of help to you. Use this as a point of contact to God and pray for knowledge God will help us. He never sleep He never slumber. He that watches over us shall not let us down.

  18. Americans reaction in supplying the ebola drug to Nigeria is part of the Colonial Hegemony to Africans. If it is weapons of war that we needed in Nigeria it is the Americans government that will first rise for support but by the Special grace of God Nigeria will soon become the leader of the World and America will come for Nigeria help.
    God bless Nigeria and change our leaders are bringing backwardness to the Youth of our dear Nation . They send their children to school abroad and yet they refuse to give the children of the poor good education. God will soon destroy all of you and your household if you refuse to change.
