The reason this wasn’t used immediately is because, given this is for a different virus, best case scenario you MAY get 80-95% immunity. Worst case half of it or less. But given the current situation that’s still much better than nothing while a proper Bundibugyo Ebolavirus vaccine is made.

Rain G. 🏳️‍🌈 🇵🇸 🇺🇦 @gestaltgreen.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

So Ebola is actually a family of closely related viruses, rather than one virus. Sort of like how there is A & B type flu. The vaccine is for a close relative of the currently outbreaking virus, Zaire Ebolavirus, in hopes that Bundibugyo Ebolavirus, being a close relative, is at least semi-stopped.
