An experimental drug for treatment of Ebola has been provided by a Nigerian in diaspora and will arrive the country today, health minister Onyebuchi Chukwu, has said.
The drug, called “Nanosilver”, can now be used following the approval by the World Health Organisation (WHO) that experimental treatments are ethical in the case of the Ebola pandemic.

The Nigerian government authorised the use of experimental drugs on Wednesday. The US sent ZMapp, another experimental drug, to Liberia on Wednesday, while Canada has decided to donate 1,000 vaccines to the affected countries.

According to Chukwu, the experimental drug is a donation from a Nigerian scientist who was concerned about threat of Ebola in his home country. “The drug will reach Nigeria today,” he said. Chukwu disclosed that the 169 secondary contacts were still under surveillance, while in all Ebola 11 cases had been recorded, including the index case, Patrick Sawyer, and the two Nigerians who died of the disease. “Some of the people under surveillance have completed the 21 days incubation period, and we have to let them go,” he said.

Nano silver is not a new substance. In the US, the FDA considers it a pesticide. Samsung electronics have been using it in certain models of their refrigerators, air conditioners and washing machine as anti bacteria and anti fungi. I think it is also used in certain wound dressing creams.
Dr. Rima Laibow of US talked about it in 2007 as a possible treatment for ebola but it has never been clinically tested for that purpose.
There is no harm we try it. What doesn't kill us will only make us stronger.
