Hmm... The vaccine triggers the production of the same antibodies that are used to diagnose Ebola. Anybody else see a problem with that? If these people get sick later and are tested for Ebola via the antibody test, theyre going to test positive. Same thing happened with a Lyme vaccine thats no longer on the market. *** Another test for Ebola looks for antibodies produced by the bodys immune system in response to the virus. Known as the antigen-capture enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), this test can take even longer than three days to give a positive result for an infected person, Cinti said. And antibodies can also be detected after a patient recovers, he added. m.livescience/48141-how-doctors-test-for-ebola.html
