The Spanish government claimed yesterday that the drug was imported from Geneva and doctors have begun to administer it on Fr. Miguel Pajares at Madrid’s La Paz-Carlos III hospital where he is in isolation.
The first person to be treated with the serum, Dr. Kent Brantly, saw his condition improve after being given Zmapp.
Since his treatment began, Fr. Pajares is said to be in stable condition, no longer has fever, and hasn't any hemorrhaging. Doctors believe that his condition will greatly improve in the coming days.
So erm, when is Africa going to get this drug?

This is good news. Wen it comes to Africa having it u will start hearing stories that they are still experimenting it. Pls let's have the serum already and spare us de BS. I'm out. ***CATCH ME IF U CAN***
Let's pray dat d drug comes to Africa. For those of uo answering LIB Prince, LIB Syndrome, LIB Addict, Face of LIB etc be careful. I did nt jst bring d concept 'LIB Princess' sometn prompted it. Vry soon Anuty Linda wil officially bring it 2ur notice dat Gnomic Pretex is d LIB Princess!

I thought Obama said it was too early to get d drug or is that just for Nigerians???
Thank God for his life. MM
Thank God for his life. MM
Exactly d questn i ws abt to ask. Pls dnt forget Africa o, wr ppl are dying in mass
Hmmmm if they can send it to spain even if is not yet confirm as they claim,they should start sending to Africa plss where the infection is high,biko US na beg we D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣!!!
Nawa oh, i suspect something fishy. Oh, its like you guys want to do trade by barter. 1 Carton Of Zmapp = 5 Oil Wells.
I hope African government can see this foreign calculated injustice, so a white skin can get the serum but a black man can't, this is not fair. We are not stupid this is racism, African countries please enough is enough , stop taking our wealth in name of vacation to western countries, we are developing their countries while ours is in disarray. Children are dying from this virus and thousand are infected, hundreds are dead, yet it is not enough reason to produce this serum for Africa, and just of recent African presidents were called for Africa summit in USA, like seriously,
Na dem knw
When Mr Obama finishes his checking out.
2015 so they said but 4 Naija by sept. May God protect n keep us ALL in safety
The government should quarantine the immigration officers and airport officials that must have had contact with Liberia man at the point of entry Nigeria, is very important. This immigration officers and airport officials definitely did check on his international passport and travel documents, I believe customs and other airport officials must have check his luggage. This is very important. Airport officials may like carry the virus ebola and start spreading to others coming into Nigeria, and to friends and family or anyone they had contact with. because by law, you must submit your travel documents and by law officials must check your luggage. Let us pray and also learn to stop the spread of this deadly epidemic called ebola. We shall win this fight.
The question is "when will africa start producing her own drugs" we re always waiting for the white man's effort,later we blame him for thinking we are inferior.
This is so cool. Love me some white scientists. When will our black scientists produce a cure 4 something??? So dishertening!!!
They keep calling experimental, yet they have used it on Three persons now.
Africa have to be patient till next year. please be very cautious and careful while we wait. Itiswell
when obama thinks enough Africans have died
I really think Africa has to go back to the drawing board to find out exactly how they can solve their own problems by themselves instead of waiting for some odd foreign aid. Bawcceee
Obama should please release the drugs to africa states or is this some form of discrimination or what
Face of lib
Thank God oh I believe it will get Africa soon.
Well! Am not suprised, av always had this bliv that this dam virus was manufactured somwhr, nw they wunt give it 2 us in africa, cos they wana rip us off
I presume till there is proof it works and the possible side effects can be known. Imagine if they sent it to africa first.. I can already see the tabloids. "The Western world us Africa as lab rats"
We'll get it after we put our house in order! Period!
Abi we asked for d drug dey didn't give us. Now dey r giving it to anoda country. Obama God is watching u oh!!!
Abi o wen???
Ouch!!! Gaint of Africa? Lolzz
Yeah, so this drug is for the rich and powerful. Poor africans
Racism....US said it was too early to send d drug to nigeria to treat d few patients we have, but they sent it to Spain to treat their patient. It's so not fair... also people have to b enlightened. Some news say the family of d dead nigerian nurse are on d run for fear of being quarantined which is so wrong. Wether u run or get quarantined, if u infected, u are infected. Its better to stay put get quarantined n get possible medical help instead of putting others at risk. Running away from quarantine is one of d major reasons ebola is spreading. Patrick Sawyer allegedly escaped quarantine n came to nigeria sick n weak. Lets help ourselves like d whites are doing to save our existence.
Apparently this drug wasn't made for Africans
@Linda can't you get it? It ain't coming to Africa. Its a conspiracy. Kindly read & share.... Exposed! Why Ebola May be an American Bio-weapon in Nigeria http://chikennamani.blogspot.com/2014/08/ebola-plague-or-american-decimating.html#more
Linda the news is already out that Africa will not be getting the ebola drugs.
Google it, The Guardian said: "Nigerian Health minister Onyebuchi Chukwu told a press conference he had asked the US health authorities about the unproven medicines used on two American doctors, but was told such small quantities existed that west Africa would have to wait for months for supplies, even if they were proved safe and effective."
So only white people get to be saved for now.
Kimmy*****
Africa refused to legalize homosexuality therefore, the US/Israel alongside their Western Allies who together are the Axis of Evil has decided to strike Africa with Ebola. And me and you know say na politician fear pass and Ebola nor dey look face. Don't be surprised if whosoever win 2015 election disappoint you all by legalizing homosexuality. The life na bible and na Revelation we dey now. Na 666 we dey accept gradually so.
Conspiracy Against Africa
Never becos its AFRICA. Let's stop depending on the West and look inwards cos they're never in our interest
White people are wicked. Ahh
They keep treating oyibos with d drug and keep giving us excuses. Nawah ooo. Am beginning to smell fowl play. Looks like this Ebola was targeted against Africans SMH
Good news so the drug should be sent us to use and save souls
Ok oº°˚˚˚°º , I think I will soon join the school of thought that believes, that other parts of the world wants to wipe Africa or reduce our population.
This is an insult on our nation. Apparently, we are not on the priority list of America.
Errrm, Linda! Lemme guess! Never! If only Nigerian politicians don't loot shamelessly, we would have had something better than this drug by now. It's a pity many will die in the process,but after this, they will learn. Maybe this will be the beginning of the revolution we desire.
Didn't Obama say that Zmapp was not ready for clinical use reason being the drug not provided for Africa? What a slap on Africans and Nigeria (Giant of Africa) in particular!

Pay good money for it. Talk to the company that makes it and give them emergency legislative chambers-voted cash. That's when Africa will get it.
Painful situation for Africa. Africa may get it mid 2015.
So its okay for Africans to die???
Next year
I was becoming hopeful for those who have tested positive to the Ebola virus here in Nigeria ,but since they have decided to give the priest this Zmapp, my hope for their spontaneous recovery is beginning to wane. And any other death will send serious panic across the country, like the type we had 3 or 4 days ago when everything seemed bleak.
Africa has contributed little to the world, cos it is gonna take a while for the drug to reach us!
Our govt go use am do business first na. Zmapp
Linda ask dem ooooo. God help 9ja
With benefit of hindsight, the whites are not happy with Black African. First, it waz alleged that HIV/AIDS originated from Africa and now another dreaded diseases, EBOLA also originated from Africa.
No wonder, one of them suggested that flight from African should be banned. They are not happy at all. In retrospect, one wonder that since 1976 Ebola was discovered in Africa, al the continents intellectual have not been able to develop an antidote for the dreaded disease. Especially, Nigeria with over 100 Universities, what have they been doing with all the research grant and scholarship. This is one of the consequence of corruption.
I dont blame them, they are only protesting silently against Black Africa for the ineptitude.
Take it or leave, other countries are taking drastic steps in other to secure the serum zmapp but unlike Nigeria who is specialised in only talking with little action. Must will fail in everything. Shame on us. GEJ is traveling from one country to another with nothing to show off. Weak Government.

VerY soon lindodo
Thank you Jesus for this one
Abi oh when, and one stupid man dey talk aboit Dencia smh, make una beg dem, make we get some Zmapp serum
This is what our greedy African powermongers caused us!more insult s to come.
PRESIDENT BARRACK OBAMA, PLEASE SEND ZMAPP TO LAGOS TO TREAT EBOLA PATIENTS PLEASE!
ENOUGH OF THE SULKING. ITS SIMPLE. WHERE ARE THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES IN NIGERIA AND WHERE ARE THE NIGERIAN RESEARCHERS AND PROFESSORS. THEY SHOULD GET INTO THE LAB AND START WORKING. THE GOVT CAN PROVIDE SOME GRANTS. WE CAN DEVELOP OUR OWN ZMAPP, AFTER ALL, EBOLA HAD LONG BEEN IN EXISTENCE, I BELIEVE, SOME PRIMITIVE WAYS WOULD HAVE BEEN USED IN TREATING IT IN ANCIENT TIMES. I MEAN TRADITIONAL KNOWLEDGE. BUT ITS TIME TO GET STARTED. WHERE ARE THE PHARMA STUDENTS AS WELL.
developing countries especially the rich ones like nigeria can be annoyin..Linda, pls don't expect america to give us or africa any zmapp..our leaders are busy looting, clueless. America eradicated malaria in 1951. They sprayed almost the whole country from aircraft to kill mosquitoes and cleared drainage etc..we cannot even resolve malaria,do u think we can do anything about ebola? One leader was askin for advise from nigerians yesterday...please let us invest in d health sector, science,education,research (boko haram is busy fightin 'no to western education') u want d zmapp abi?when boko haram is sayin no to western education? Just wait, ebola wil teach africa lesson
Medical help Abi medical imprisonment
am expecting this drug in Nigeria as soon as possible
save our people
BORN TO SHINE!!!!
Why can't our govt spend money on research , health, hospitals instead of looting?all those billions they stole would ve helped us.
God my heart skip a Beat each time I read a post abt Ebola,who knew dt dere is a disease dt Hiv wud be better dan?? From me and my family, we v stopped givin handshakes and hugs till dese bourgeoise thirsty throat decides dt dia corporate greed is now 'enough'... Since outbreak of ebola, boko haram hv been silent.. #cheEzyjayne
I read somewhere that Glaxosmithkline has a vaccine they will try sometime this year. Hopefully, man go still dey.
Linda, you've unleashed your goons on social media over sillier things. Now is the time to use them over a life and death matter. This medication isn't "coming" to Africa unless it's forced. Crash Twitter over THIS. Africans have the right to life like everyone else.
I wonder o. This people and the plans they. Claimed they have for Africans only God can tell.
Abeg, African should stop being stupid. U r all investing money on religion and stupid things. Now u r in problem and u xpext make oyinbo help u. If oyinbo tell u to free the gay and let them be, u go dey cause dem say them be devil and they r destroying the world. But when wahala rises u r expecting them to come to ur aid(that's too ironic). Oyinbo self get their own wahala to solve. Africa is contributing nothing to the world except corruption . if Africans can't take care of themselves, then don't blame some white people about anything....our govt is too stupid and its time pple realise
I can't understand this, why can't our own professors and scientist develop our own vaccine at least by now they have an idea on how to go about it since they are brain dead and can't think.
Maybe when the virus gets to Kenya then Obama may be concerned about his father and mother and relations there
Ok till we hear frm "azuty" linda.......lmao! Biko akpazina mu ochi here.
you fools better stop shouting racism for everything. Besides they have no obligation to give us a drug they spent millions of U.S taxpayers funds to develop. Meanwhile our own millions are sitting in tinubu's offshore accounts
Nigerians should start to see beyond racism and injustice. While Nigerian leaders were busy looting money, sponsoring multi-million naira parties, showing off newly-acquired private jets, the west was busy investing in research and development, they were funding universities to promote research, paying lecturers and ensured schools never went on strike. Plans were put in place to build special isolation units such as the one in EMORY twelve years ago. Now Ebola is spreading like wildfire, starting from countries with poor public health facilities and even to Nigeria who doesn't lack resources to have upgraded its health amenities, to have put in place screening centers at airports, to have in place sophisticated hospitals, 24 hours electric supplies. Who even thinks Nigeria has the facilities to use the Zmapp drugs?
SEE THIS US GOVERNMENT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING....AS LONG AS IT'S FOR THEM TO TAKE OUR MONEY THEY JUST WANT THIS VIRUS THEY CREATED TO SPREAD ROUND WELL...IF ITS WAS AN EUROPEANS COUNTRY THAT MAN THAT CAME FROM LIBERIAN DIED WITH THAT VIRUS WHICH HE IS ALSO AN AMERICAN CITIZEN...THEY WOULD HAVE CHARGE AMERICA TO COURT...SEE JONATHAN...HE FUCKING DOESN'T KNOW HE'S RIGHT....ANY NIGERIAN CAN DIE LIKE CHICKEN AND NOTHING WILL BE DONE...SMMMMHHH.....SAMSON
We r patiently hoping n waiting.
We r still hoping n waiting.
Some of you are very stupid. Always shouting racism.
When the West was spending millions or research, testing and facilities. Africa was busy spending its money on lavish parties and private jets. Now you say its not fair that they don't give you the drug.
How much did Africa contribute to the development of the drug?
It will come when we start our own research and experiments. Everything in Africa we wait for others to provide. Msheww!!
Do ur own f..ing research. Spain got the drug from a company in Geneva. Which means u can also produce urs. Lazy ass, thieving continent. Always asking for hand-outs
All those people saying they should send it to Africa, they will not send it to Africa unless Africa show responsibility and go and get it them selves. Ministry of health in naija is there stealing money instead of the minister to be in america chasing the serum and naija government should be sending funds to these foreign labs and if possible go and get these samples at least to control the disease before it gets out of hand. instead of just seating down and be stealing money and hoping that america will come and do miracle.. irresponsible continent
The drugs takes months to make. There is no supply ready. It's very complicated process. Lets say we sent zmapp to Africa and it kill more than it helps.... then what?
It needs to be tested.
Africa, fold your hands and wait for oyibo to send the drugs to you. Are there no laboratories in africa? You expect your enemies to send drugs that will heal your disease. Do you realise dt dese are your colonial and slave masters who will always wish you dead than alive. I weep for africa
You dey mind Obama? He wants to wipe out Africa.
Well, now I'm beginning to get convinced dat this Ebola incidence in the first place was a planned one, how did it suddenly surface after years? Even if dey claim it's frm the wild.
How come Americans already have a hidden serum which was tagged "secret" & was only made known when their own got infected?
U can't just have a cure to something dat is not in existence .....u then must create one,
Mmmmmmm! just a logical reasoning "tables turn"
God help African Scientists & researchers....
Itelogua iteloose!
Call it whatever you like but this is nothing but racism. This is beginning to show us the hypocrisy of the white man's religion. That same serum that cannot be given to Nigeria has been given to Spain by Americae. Apart from irresponsibility of African leaders, the main reason Africa is so underdeveloped is because of the west.
I guess the drug go spoil for road na him make them no wan transport am come Africa...
Oh Africa, I weep for you! Our scientist shld wake from dia slumber b4 its too late. But since 1976, where have Ebola been hiding? A lot is going on we don't know about. Patrick Sawyer's coming to Naija to spread Ebola is not by accident.
*its only the whites dat will come and tell us dia is a disease like dis or like dat, meanwhile we've been living peacefully all these while. How did dey get to know all those since dey don't have it in dia land? Hmmm, I weep for Africa!
Linda my sis, if u ask us who are we going to ask..#Stupidcountrywithstupidleaders#
They should bring d vaccine to nja naw, Haba!
May God not let Ebola know my household in Jesus name. Amen
Linda , if u ask me now who I go ask? D discrimination againt Africa is still on. Isn't it d same drug dat president Obama said "it is too early" to send to Africa? LATER they will carry placards of #bringbackourgirls. Now wer talking abt saving d lives of d entire nation (AFRICA) we r being denied. Daris God
STOP ! STOP ! STOP!
Yes its racism but why can't we do something for ourselves? Stop all these shouts. Na today u sabi say America
We are always waiting for a foreign government when we have the resources to do something for ourselves . Even Obama said it, that if we imbibe best practices we can control it. He said it in his speech we should focus on controlling the spread than thinking of the drug. Ebola out break can be controlled if we do the right thing. we could have prevented this man from entry in the first place.
Ebola has been in west Africa for years. Why didn't we research on it since to find cure? We are also waiting from the White man to help us with Malaria in our own country too? and we have research institutes ?
Now we are crying for help. If only Africans can wake up to see what is really going on in the world.
Yes o, make them pls let Africa hv d drugs too o
There is hope after all unlike HIV
God knows d best,I tink dis ebola thing wil turn nigeria for good,yea lives wl b lost,but it will certainly clear our wicked corrupt leaders,it wil make ppl sober and dey wil re-evaluate dia lives,but God will surely save His own,let's know that our lives is in God's hands and not obamas or zmapp,FYI dis is endtym,obama and co are the antichrist agents,if only ppl will focus dia energy on God now,He is our only Hope,no matter what God still loves Nigeria else there would have been more ebola deaths than this,all power belongs to JESUS
Ehhmmm..., Africans are not part of the equation now. It is too early to start sending to them the "SECRET SERUM" it has not been confirmed to be safe for human use just yet... Just pray you survive it while oyinbo check it out, amen...
The Spanish priest is black and not white. Africans need to start utilizing the brain that God gave us in our labs too n stop depending on handouts and hand downs all d time. We are always begging for something. Can't we make ours for once? Abi it's not the same brain that God gave all of us????
The Analytical Observer
My point exactly
The Analytical Observer
Africans should not start producing their own drugs o. we should be there waiting for oyinbo man smh!!! always lazying about and pursuing irrelevant things like religion, land and who to chop money....
But I sense some conspiracy here, why aren't they testing this vaccine on those who have Ebola in Africa?
And they let that poor Liberian nun. Racist and unjust world. Black Africans better wake up and smell the coffee.
And they let that poor Liberian nun die. Racist and unjust world. Black Africans better wake up and smell the coffee.
Mschew, so Africans are allegic to it shey? There is God oh. Guys, Do you seek a serious relationship? Try
BV HookUps
The article says the drug was 'imported' meaning it was bought. All those asking for the drugs to be brought to Africa has your governments paid for it? Abi una just dey find free everything
That's The ? ooo. When Is Africa Going Its Own. (Linda's Man)
I HATE US GOVERNMENT OFFICIALLY!!!
You think the whites care about the blacks?when the zmapp eventually arrives it would be more expensive than chematography!
»_»_• \0/ ^FORTUNEDEXC£L@REDIFFMAIL.COM^ »_»_• \0/
Hell has a freezer
Ignorance will kill us before Ebola! Linda pls you are smarter than this!!!
Zmapp is owned by a private company and not the US government!!
We have wealthy ppl in naija, what is stopping Dangote or Adenuga??? Is it when they donate to Keshi you clap for them?
The Abacha money that is being returned where is it going? What is stopping it from being used to develop a drug??
After you give the drug then what??? Brantly and the lady in Emory, do you think they are just sitting on bed?? What facilities do we have? Do we even have a blood bank? Do we have proper ICUs??? If bp drops, how fast can we administer pressors? If th patient starts coding, how quickly are the team trained to respond?
I laugh that people think and people like you Linda are spreading such information, when you should really be explaining the complex situation.
This ignorance is too much, just way too much. It's no surprise we are exactly where we are! We plan for nothing! The Minister of Health should be slapping himself that a country in his region had an outbreak since Feb and he had NO plan in place! I won't even talk about the others! And you ppl are shouting racism and looking for a drug that hasn't been tested for efficacy and safety in the human population. Do you ppl understand ethics? If ppl die from this drug, Linda you would be the first to write an article shouting bloody murder! Linda you should be ashamed of yourself that not once did you discuss Ebola from feb till it landed in Nigeria!! It was already killing hundreds, bbc used to write about it but linda not once did you use your platform to talk about it! Now you write this Abeg park well!
let's educate ourselves better.
What are our professors doing when others in the west were making researches. What happens to the yearly grant Nigerian professors get for researches? Now they are screaming racism, injustice. The west is under no obligation to Africans whatsoever. They spent millions of their tax to manufacture that drug, what's our own used for? Nigerians are screaming racism, yet boko haram has been fighting against anything western education. Till our politicians overlook looting and their greed,We remain our own problem.
To doz askin wen d drug wud b in 9ja/Africa and anty Linda; its a Trial drug. Wot if Africans react 2 it or sometin? U wil start tokin again. Abeg mk una allow dem finish. If e dey pain any of una mk una enter una own lab do una own. If not 4 d Whites, african 4 don go extinct.
When our health minister grows a brain and does all the paper work necessary to get it here. That's when we'll get it.
Racism
I knew a solution will pop up. This saga needs to be stopped and controlled. Got an update info from a bulk sms Multitexter.com that such remedy will show up soon. Here we have it.
If say man na God! Pple 4 dey die every seconds. So d American govt decides whom to die or live. Dis is an open eye to Africans who Instead of making research to improve their lives, they concentrated in making their fellow human suffer and die in d name of jealousy. Ewu nme.
pls linda can u visit this site and tell people to visit the site to petition the obama administration to
Release experimental drug, Zmapp to Africa! https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/release-experimental-drug-zmapp-africa/9bYrqL09
Where is the Nigerian that says bitter cola can cure the infection, he should start something, we have the money and people to finance it.
Enough is enough of this Western racism and propaganda, Africa should rise up to the challenge. I was made to fill Ebola form aboard Kenya airways. Quite embarrassing to all of us from Nigeria inside the plane before we were allowed to disembark from the plane even though it was a transit flight. May God help us in this matter.
Wale
no, she said 'anuty'! hahaha,lol! *anya_o2003@yahoo.com*
@anon 3:04am, you must be very stupid. What are you doing commenting in this blog since you be "oyibo"? *anya_o2003@yahoo.com*
Just wat i had in mind too
Anon 8,54pm, not every black man is a beggar like u. Idiat!
First off, its important to understand that the only thing that is known about this drug is that it hasn't killed anyone, yet. Second, it takes a long time to produce, given a trillion dollars and unlimited manpower, it would still take months to produce more doses. Third there is enough of this drug for 5 people. FIVE! That is not near enough to play racial politics with.
"But why is the vaccine not sent to africa yet? not fair o. #LivelyMee"
NO, these white racist people are making excuses NOT to sent the vaccine to Africa!!
The people in Africa are BLACK and that why they kept the vaccine a secret!!
It look like vaccine is ONLY FOR WHITE PEOPLE!!
you guys should wait for the US demand . . remember they are running out of oil ... so make we all wait and see... lol....US are the REAL SCAM, yes, i believe that there is Ebola, no doubt but it is another SCAM to enrich their oil reserve..... all same, God loves this great country and He has a plan for us...
