Three experimental vaccines being developed by researchers at Harvard's Beth Israel Hospital and the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research had already shown promise in mice — but monkeys are a much better model of how the medicines will work in humans.
All three of the vaccines were found to be safe and protected the monkeys against infection with the virus, according to the report published in Science.
