Ghana Ebola - Prof. Dodoo summons ‘extremely amusing’ - Noguchi official

6/17/2015

Comments

 
Ebola ..... or Marburg virus or simply Marburg is the common name for the the genus of virusesMarburgvirus, which contains one species, ''Lake Victoria marburgvirus''. The virus causes the disease Marburg Hemorrhagic Fever (MHF), also referred to as ''Marburg Virus Disease''. Marburg originated in Central and East Africa, and infects both human and nonhuman primates. The Marburg Virus is in the same taxonomic family as Ebola, and both are identical structurally....

Source: citifmonline.com  -  Parliament’s summons for a Professor at the School of Medicine and Dentistry, University of Ghana Professor Alex Dodoo for allegedly calling Members of Parliament (MPs) “ignorant” over their comments regarding the Ebola vaccine clinical trial has been described as “extremely amusing.”

A Research Coordinator at the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research, Susan Adu Amankwah on Eyewitness News said: “I find it extremely amusing” because according to her, some of the comments and remarks made by some MPs on the matter did not come from “a point of knowledge.”
“ I mean somebody asked if it’s been done on rats before it’s being done on humans. To cut things short, animal studies are done before human studies. That is basic science…so obviously, they were not speaking from a point of knowledge and if he [Prof Dodoo] says they were ignorant, we can play the recording to see whether they were or they were not,” she said.

The Speaker of Parliament on Tuesday ordered that Prof. Dodoo must be hurled before the Privileges Committee to answer questions over his alleged contemptuous comments.

However, Susan Adu Amankwah was of the view that the only way to determine if Prof Dodoo was right or wrong is to play back the recording of last Wednesday’s Parliamentary proceedings.

She indicated that Parliamentarians must know that Ghanaians take their comments on the floor of the House seriously because their remarks on that fateful day caused panic.

“When you stand on the floor of Parliament and you say something, it is recorded…you cannot just talk like you are an ordinary person so anything you say, people take it seriously and I think that the statements that they made in there, people panicked.”

Questions on FDA surprising

Susan Adu Amankwah further stated that the questions which were being asked about the level of government involvement in the clinical trial were surprising.

“I mean somebody asked whether the government knew about it. The protocol of the trial had gone through the FDA [Food and Drugs Authority] and it was the FDA that had given the approval. Obviously, the FDA acts by the law that they themselves passed – the Public Act 815 so the government knew about it. If the government is not represented by the FDA, if the state is not represented by the FDA, then I don’t know who the FDA is.”

She argued that the FDA is not a private institution but a regulator mandated by the state to ensure clinical trials is done according to law.

“Now, if they are questioning it without questioning the regulator by wanting to know what it is doing, I am sorry, you cannot ask that question when you yourself put that in place,” she added.

I’m not at risk

The Noguchi Research Coordinator however believed despite her strong views on the matter and her spirited defence for Prof. Dodoo, she is not at risk of also earning an invitation to appear before the Privileges committee.”

She said Parliament has the right to invite anyone before it but “if they say anything and it does not come from a knowledgeable place, it is disturbing.”

What is: A vaccine trial is a clinical trial that aims at establishing the safety and efficacy of a vaccine prior to it being licensed...

The (USA) FDA's definition of a "serious adverse reaction" to a vaccine includes a reaction that leads to:

  • Hospitalization
  • Permanent disability
  • Life-threatening event
  • Death

Ebola Lie Exposed: THE EBOLA DECEPTION: Vaccine Agenda Fully Exposed - Final Edition [FULL DOCUMENTARY]  1/26/2015
Please share this videos and messages. The videos are a compilation of research and updated information proving the vaccine agenda is what is behind the Ebola scare!
Ho Gi: Sheeple, wake up and read EBOLA backward.....ALOBE>>>>>>> ALL OBEY. Is that ringing the Bell? The Illuminati are fooling us again. Remember the Bird flu in 2009 and all the other f**k up's !!!!!! Vaccination is killing everybody, creates Autism in our kids. The FDA works closely with Big Pharma and Big Pharma makes a lot of money. Wake up...don't die stupid !
April 2015 - A 27,000-person trial of an Ebola vaccine tested by a London university has started in West Africa. The number of volunteers involved in the trial just tops the number of people that have been infected with the vicious disease since the outbreak began -- a harrowing 25,178. So far in trials researchers have seen a good immune response, with antibodies to Ebola appearing in volunteers' blood. But the 27,000-person trial, split between the two vaccines and a placebo, should reveal a clearer picture of what doses work efficiently enough. Read More (new window)
Marburg virus ans Ebola virus are the SAME! In 2009, expanded clinical trials of an Ebola and Marburg vaccine began in Kampala, Uganda! (Read Here at Wikipedia)
September 2014 - Researchers of [both will] hope that the vaccines will prove more effective than the experimental ZMapp, which has provided mixed results so far, with two patients dying and two recovering out of those who have received it, and gone through the course of the disease...

Very interesting:

When doing a search at BING - for " vaccine trials on humans "

The first top-result turning up, is about "Ebola Vaccine" tested successfully on humans....  How fitting!
There should be the big question, who is interested that this result (NOT an Advertisement) - turns up on top of page ONE...!
