Well, Ebola seems to have hit NYC. It was first discovered in 1976, but has no cure, or vaccine. Why? It cant be that complex, can it? The majority of R&D is done in the private sector. The private sector is driven by profit. Ebola outbreaks have mostly been in rural areas in some of the poorest nations in the world. Super poor Africans contract Ebola. So consequently, Ebola is an Orphan Disease. Poor people cant pay. And drug companies have not been willing to invest the money in a disease that they believed would never trouble the first world.
