Not sure if or how this might help...

Ebola vaccine didn’t get approved until 12/2019 - 4+ years after the outbreak.
There were no longer any Ebola cases to run thru the trials.

Thank heavens for West Africa...

They note: “Content last reviewed on January 9, 2020”
not sure why they didn’t know about the vaccine approval a month earlier...
If I’m reading this right, it looks like the Merck vaccine became the one approved, though it was named differently?
