...treated effectively once symptoms begin (30% of those infected will die). The vaccine is 100% effective, but only in protecting against the disease before exposure. Although studies show that inoculation can prevent infection if given up to four days after exposure, by the time the first symptoms appear--fever, headache and rash, which begin at least two weeks after exposure--it is too late...
