New data from a study in humans provides additional support to the idea that Merck’s Ebola vaccine Ervebo, licensed to target the Zaire species of ebolaviruses, could also offer some protection against another species currently circulating in a rapidly expanding outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
The new paper, published Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine after previously having been posted online before peer review, is one of a growing number of studies pointing to the possibility that the vaccine could be used to target the Bundibugyo species of ebolaviruses.
