Ebola vaccine cuts death rates in half even if it's given after infection
Briefly

When I first started working in Ebola, we had little more than palliative care to offer patients...I think Ebola is a really cruel disease because the very moment when you want to care for someone who you love is the moment when you shouldn't touch them.
Later, if the person is exposed to Ebola, their immune system will recognize the viral protein, prompt immune system activation, and enable rapid response to neutralize the virus.
