Ebola: New Vaccine Trial Begins

_77640402_c0217849-ebola_vaccine_trial-spl 
Scientists at Oxford University have begun immunizing healthy volunteers with a new Ebola vaccine. BBC reports:
In September last year, a separate trial of another Ebola vaccine got underway in the city. Initial tests in monkeys showed the vaccine, developed by Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson and Johnson, gave complete protection against Ebola. The volunteers in Oxford are the first humans to receive the vaccine.
 Dr Matthew Snape, from the Oxford Vaccine Group, part of the University of Oxford Department of Paediatrics, said: “We aim to immunise all participants within a month. “The main aim is to understand the safety profile of the vaccines.”

The trial involves volunteers receiving an additional booster dose one or two months after the initial injection. Similar small trials will also get underway in the US and three African countries unaffected by Ebola. The first dose is designed to prime the immune system with the second booster dose to enhance the immune response.

President Obama Takes Action Against North Korea For Sony Hacking

President Obama Takes Action Against North Korea For Sony Hacking 
President Obama is further claiming that North Korea was behind the hack on Sony, by punishing North Korean officials where it hurts, in the wallet.

The Department of Treasury cut off ties with 10 North Korean officials Friday and 3 entities who have direct ties to the North Korean government, despite claims of the hack being an inside inside job, saying they can no longer have financial dealings with America.

However, during a press briefing, U.S. officials said they couldn’t establish whether the entities being punished had been directly involved in the Sony hacking.

A rep for the department says, “This step reflects the ongoing commitment of the United States to hold North Korea accountable for its destabilizing, destructive and repressive actions, particularly its efforts to undermine U.S. cyber-security and intimidate U.S. businesses and artists exercising their right of freedom of speech.”
