This is just an attempt to sway the public that they have discovered something “new”, but anyone who has massive vomiting and diarrhea goes into electrolyte imbalance and the treatment is electrolytes via IV to restore balance. The doctor, Brantley, was treated by injecting antibodies into his system from the blood of a boy who contracted ebola and lived because his immune system somehow managed to produce antibodies to the virus. The doc had the boy’s blood serum antibodies injected into him.
This NBC article on electrolyte replacement is just blabber. It’s always done, but won’t help if your body is hemorrhaging and your clotting factors are done for.
PLUS, God did the rest.
That's what I always understood. Well maybe not 'always', but after last several years of reading about this. Ebola depletes clotting factor bigtime like it's going out of style.
