So they found a cure for this?

No. There is a medication, ZMapp, that was given to a VERY FEW patients. Some of those patients have recovered. But up to 40% of patients recover anyway, without ZMapp, so there is no way at all to attribute their recovery to ZMapp.

“Up to” 40%. Apparently 100% of those given ZMapp recover. Of course, the numbers are too low to be empirical, so maybe they should broaden it. I'd like to see them issue it to the people in that peninsula that has been quarantined. Why don't they?

I suppose it’s like the common cold, you’re eventually out of it, but there’s no cure.
