“Dr Kent Brantley and Nancy Writebol received the ZMapp ‘miracle drug,’ though officials say it has since run out”

Bovine Excrement...

You can bet your LIFE that all available doses, and any they are making now, is safely secured in a DC vault, to be doled out to the “Important People!”, as defined by Valerie Jarrett.

An uninsured African running from Ebola isn’t going to make that list. And neither are WE.

No, this is true. They only had one dose to give to Dr. Brantley and Dr. Writebol, and both doctors agreed to split the dose instead of one of them taking all of it.

They ended up giving Dr. Brantley the lion's share of the dose because he was in worse shape. Dr. Writebol fortunately recovered enough for her to be brought to the US for more treatment.

ZMapp is more about buying time. Ebola kills you before you can produce enough of the antibodies to fight it off. ZMapp stops the virus from being able to spread quickly, and buys your body time so that you don't deteriorate to the point that your immune system is overwhelmed.

Bingo!!!

Have talked to people about this. We agree. It’s like those movies where people are ‘selected’ to be saved.
