    A very good idea to test it in VR first. Needless to say we want to reduce their numbers anyway.

    If there's any need for the ebola sensitization at all, it should be the affected areas but not Ghana. It's time our leaders take us seriously

    So, the people of Hohoe and Kintampo have become Ghana's professional and designated guinea pigs. This reason is even more stupid than the trial itself because it lacks any reasons for appropriateness. The people of the two t ...
