Blood test can predict life or death outcomes for patients with Ebola virus

Researchers in the University of Liverpool used studied blood samples taken from recovering patients during the 2013 West Africa Outbreak. They wanted to study gene products to align them as predictors for patient outcomes. The results were promising and could be utilized in future Ebola investigations. The blood samples were pooled into two categories those that died from acute infection and those that recovered and were free from Ebola. The analysis showed that the host immune response did not act as a predictor for the outcomes of the patients. The greatest predictor was still in accordance with past knowledge that the viral load of the virus was the greatest predictor of the whether the patients developed severe cases or recovered.

Happiness is all i see now I never thought that I will be cured from HERPES virus again. I have been suffering from a deadly disease (HERPES) for the past 3 years now, I had spent a lot of money going from one places to another, from churches to churches, hospitals have been my home every day residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this faithful day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how DR agaba helped someone in curing his HERPES disease, quickly I copied his email which is Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to do some certain things which I did, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, then he asked me to go for medical checkup after some days after using the herbal cure, behold I was free from the deadly disease, he only asked me to post the testimony through the whole world, faithfully am doing it now, please brothers and sisters, he is great, I owe him in return. if you are having a similar problem just email him on : Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com or WhatApp: +2349074536486
