Only 3 remaining in isolation/treatment. 44 are now recovered.

1k doses of the experimental vaccine have been administered. Hopefully some good data comes out of this situation. We do not have any approved vaccines or treatments for Marburg virus (it is quite an awful Ebola-like hemorrhagic virus).

The vaccine was developed by the NIH. It is currently in phase 2 trials.
