BREAKING: Different Ebola Trial Drug Arrives Nigeria by chibecanglobal(m): 11:43am On Aug 14, 2014
Nigeria’s health minister Onyebuchi
Chukwu has revealed that an
experimental drug for the treatment
of Ebola Viral Disease has been
developed by a Nigerian in diaspora
and is expected to arrive in the
country today.
The vaccine, identified as
“Nanosilver”, can now be used as a
result of the approval by the World
Health Organisation (WHO) that
experimental treatments are ethical
in the case of the Ebola pandemic.
The Nigerian federal government
authorised the use of trial drugs for
the affliction on Wednesday. The
United States had sent ZMapp,
another experimental drug, to
Liberia on Wednesday, while Canada
has decided to donate 1,000
vaccines to the affected countries.

Alternative medicine

Since about 1990, there has been a resurgence of the promotion of colloidal silver as a dietary supplement, or homeopathic remedy,[12] marketed with claims of it being an essential mineral supplement, or that it can prevent or treat numerous diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, herpes,[9] and tuberculosis.[12][54][55] No medical evidence supports the effectiveness of colloidal silver for any of these claimed indications.[11][12][56] Silver is not an essential mineral in humans; there is no dietary requirement for silver, and no such thing as a silver "deficiency".[12] There is no evidence that colloidal silver treats or prevents any medical condition, and it can cause serious and potentially irreversible side effects such as argyria.[12] In August 1999, the U.S. FDA banned colloidal silver sellers from claiming any therapeutic or preventive value for the product,[11] although silver-containing products continue to be promoted as dietary supplements in the U.S. under the looser regulatory standards applied to supplements.[11] The FDA has issued numerous Warning Letters to Internet sites that have continued to promote colloidal silver as an antibiotic or for other medical purposes.[57][58][59] Despite the efforts of the FDA, silver products remain widely available on the market today. A review of websites promoting nasal sprays containing colloidal silver suggested that information about silver-containing nasal sprays on the internet is misleading and inaccurate.[60]

In 2002, the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) found there were no legitimate medical uses for colloidal silver and no evidence to support its marketing claims.[61] The U.S. National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) warns that marketing claims about colloidal silver are scientifically unsupported, that the silver content of marketed supplements varies widely, and that colloidal silver products can have serious side effects such as argyria.[12]

In 2009, the USFDA issued a "Consumer Advisory" warning about the potential adverse effects of colloidal silver, and said that "...there are no legally marketed prescription or over-the-counter (OTC) drugs containing silver that are taken by mouth."[62] Quackwatch states that colloidal silver dietary supplements have not been found safe or effective for the treatment of any condition.[63] Consumer Reports lists colloidal silver as a "supplement to avoid", describing it as "likely unsafe".[64] The Los Angeles Times stated that "colloidal silver as a cure-all is a fraud with a long history, with quacks claiming it could cure cancer, AIDS, tuberculosis, diabetes and numerous other diseases.
