According to This Day online,
the Health Ministry of Spain announced Monday that the ZMapp drug, made by Mapp
Biopharmaceutical Inc. of San Diego, was obtained in Geneva this weekend and
brought to Madrid to treat Miguel Pajares a priest who tested positive to the
Ebola virus in Liberia.
My question is why is Spain allowed to use the drug but
Nigeria isn’t? Nigeria also requested for this drug but America publicly
refused to give it to them. Does this now imply that some peoples’ lives are
more important than some? The excuse was that Africans respond to antibodies
differently. Will dualism ever cease to exist in this world? Can we really
move past these issues?
I blame the Nigerian government though for not being
proactive. Clearly Nigerian leaders need to study Machiavelli to know that a
good leader should not lack foresight.
Please remain happy and spread happiness around. Xoxo.
