Phase 1 trials in healthy subjects.

A bit misleading because phase 1 studies will be conducted in other countries and Canada as well. The title implies and reader perceives a Canadian company is testing vaccine in USA only because of presence of ebola patients.

There is a russian ebola vaccine made in Russia.

But, will the vaccine work on Canadians?

Yes, but only on those who weren't exposed to the Ebola virus...
