I get nervous knowing such claims are coming from a Hospital that I have had surgery in......

Can I ask. If there has never been a case in the country, and no one came in, where exactly did they get their test specimens from?

There's an awful lot of negativity here today.

It's extra spicy Som Tum.

Will cure anything

I hope this one doesn't leave embarrassing skid marks.

There's an awful lot of negativity here today.

Today?

The uk already developed one. This must be a copy!

Trials for drugs takes years and years....I will wait until it gets FDA approval. .

Don't hold your breath

My guess is that the vaccine kills people, but they don't die of Ebola = WIN.

Becarful, they might conspire with the Southern Thugs and Mafia in the tourists areas in the South like samui, Koh Phangan, Kao Tao , Phuket etc to conduct human tests on unsuspecting drunk or drugged foreigners etc besides the poor illegal workers like Myanmar, Cambodia etc.

Vaccines do not CURE disease - they PREVENT disease. Even their announcement is not correct.

Fantastic! Congratulations. I know the Thais are quite capable of such performances

Vaccines prevent disease. They don't cure disease. If it's a vaccine, it's not a cure. If it's a cure, it's not a vaccine.

Odds on that it's neither. This reads like major BS.

Vaccines do not CURE disease - they PREVENT disease. Even their announcement is not correct.

Hold it - there are vaccines that cure diseases. The key part is to introduce into the body a substance that helps in the generation of antibodies. It is not substantially different whether or not the disease is already present.

According to its report, researchers at Siriraj Hospital have developed the world's first vaccine that can cure infected patients.

Could someone knowledgeable please explain whether there is a difference between a 'vaccine' and a 'cure'?

Guess they missed this article from 2012:

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/potential-ebola-treatment-shows-promise-winnipeg-lab-says-1.1127883

Or this article from August 2014:

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/experimental-ebola-drug-based-on-research-from-canadas-national-lab/article19911181/

And this more recent one from last week:

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/how-a-winnipeg-lab-became-an-ebola-research-powerhouse-1.2773397

"What research? Well, there's ZMapp, the most promising of the current experimental treatments. There's also an Ebola vaccine that may be useful both to prevent infection and stop it in its tracks, if given shortly after exposure. And a mobile diagnostic lab that has changed the way outbreak testing is done."

This is HUGE news: Thailand invented something,

It will be a cold day in hell when any institution in Thailand develops any viable medicine. And this announcement reflects that amateurish nature of Thailand's scientific community. What a load of S***

Vaccines do not CURE disease - they PREVENT disease. Even their announcement is not correct.

So far there are vaccines in development from the Brits, the Yanks, the Canucks and France. Any advance in treatment from Thailand would be welcomed but this appears to sound like an anti-viral therapy rather than a vaccine. If that is the case, it must be a test tube treatment because they don't have any patients ( let alone trials). Very good hospital but a truly odd announcement

This is to divert attention from the keystone cops investigations down south,

<script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script>

lets hope this isnt like the announcement that they know who the killers on KT are, somehow I have great reservations about releases like this in Thailand. They usually turn out as something totally different but in this case I really hope not.

At least they didn't say they had 85% of the cure...............................

LOS land of HUBS of Lies.

Prove you have a clue about EBOLA then prove you have a cure.

They may now get a visit from the US FDA's SWAT team. IF we EVER mention a cure for anything that has not been invented / approved by the pharmaceutical companies...I mean FDA, then you are raided and taken to jail....it does not matter if it works or not.

How do they know they've got a cure? It's not as if Thailand has a hundred Ebola patients they've been able to test a vaccine on. How have they tested it? It might be an idea for the Siriraj to read this http://www.naturalnews.com/047016_Ebola_treatments_warning_letters_unproven_cures.html The FDA is going to prosecute companies claiming to have natural cures for Ebola with no data to support the claim

Thailand just put a man on the moon and can turn salt water into Chablis. What a country of BS.

In other news it is announced a major Pharmaceutical company is suing Thailand for Intellectual Property theft.

It is in the form of a very large pill that is extremely hard to swallow...........

Like their claim that they developed a new heart valve a few months ago, only for me to read that the exact valve have been patented in my home country by a reputable hospital. They however patented in all the developed countries of which Thailand is not one and what does the sharks do they claim they have developed it in their BKK hospital.

Before giving the answer...

Did they actually listened to the question?
