The "mystery serum" to treat the Ebola virus made from GMO Tobacco

Oh my God! How will the anti-tobacco Nazis deal with this?

And GMO opponents equally will most likely lose their minds!


The three-antibody mixture originated with Mapp Biopharmaceuticals, a small San Diego-based company established in 2003 and led by Larry Zeitlin, Ph.D., a Johns Hopkins-trained reproductive biologist who became an expert in ?plantibodies,? antibody therapeutics produced in, and purified from, bioengineered plants.

The ZMapp three-antibody cocktail isn?t a vaccine. Instead, it provides an artifical immune response against sugar-tagged proteins on the outside of the Ebolavirus.
