US Warns That Ebola Experimental Drug 'Nanosilver' Is A Pesticide





Yesterday we heard that an experimental drug called 'Nanosilver' developed by a Nigerian in diaspora for the treatment of Ebola has arrived the country.

But now, despite the experimental drug getting approval for use by the World Health Organization (WHO), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warns that Nanosilver is a pesticide

"From Reuters
"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said on Thursday it has become aware of products being sold online that fraudulently claim to prevent or treat Ebola.

The FDA's warning comes on the heels of comments by Nigeria's top health official, Onyebuchi Chukwu, who reportedly said earlier Thursday that eight Ebola patients in Lagos, the country's capital, will receive an experimental treatment called nano-silver.
