A man has revealed he has been injected with the Ebola
virus on purpose in a bid to fight the deadly disease.
According to Mirror.co.uk:
Peter Hubbard said he hopes the small risk he is taking
could help create a vaccine to prevent further outbreaks of
the disease, which has claimed thousands of lives in west
Africa.
Speaking from his apartment in Alexandria, Virginia, Mr
Hubbard, a consultant who specialises in natural gas and
peer markets, said:
"I get a lot of satisfaction out of the fact that this could
potentially develop into a viable vaccine that prevents
another outbreak.
It might not help out with the current
outbreak but it could prevent a future one, so that's a real
plus in my book."
Mr Hubbard, 35, is one of 20 people taking part in clinical
trials for a vaccine at the National Institutes of Health (NIH)
in the United States.
