The year-long Ebola outbreak has so far killed at least 1800 people in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Now a trial of new therapies has saved roughly 90 per cent of the patients who received them early in the course of infection.

"Significantly diminishes the mortality associated with Ebola disease," says Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases who co-led the trial.
