Ebola Vaccine Would Likely Have Been Found By Now If Not For Budget Cuts: NIH Director

 Please post anonymously. See quote below from linked article just published tonight.

"Sometimes vaccines not only don't work, they make things worse,"
Collins told HuffPost. "Look at the HIV step trial, where that vaccine
not only did not protect HIV, it increased susceptibility because it did
something to the immune system that made it more vulnerable. That could
happen here too." (The private sector, it should be noted, hasn't
developed an Ebola vaccine for a variety of reasons, primarily financial
ones.)"http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/12/ebola-vaccine_n_5974148.html
