Cost Effective Experimental Drugs With Minimum side. effects are Required for Ebola

Most viral infections are self limiting. In people infected with Ebola, supportive and symptomatic treatment shows good results in recent epidemic in countries like the USA. A cost effective and properly designed study with minimum side effects in patients who are bleeding like people infected with the Ebola virus is the need of the hour.
