Lead section edit

Most of the lead should be moved into body. Compare this to now, and... I don't know what else to say. Most recent development should be pushed down to the newest body section, but I can't think of a section title. Maybe "Recent development" or "Recent research"? --George Ho (talk) 08:50, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

per MEDMOSWikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Medicine-related_articles(and [3]) lead should reflect what is in body of article--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 10:56, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
Maybe you meant MOS:LEAD, Ozzie10aaaa. The page tells us how to introduce readers to the topic, the vaccine to supposedly cure ebola. --George Ho (talk) 11:49, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
The lead summarizes the body per LEAD. It does that now. Jytdog (talk) 11:51, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
Okay... I am close to trusting your efforts. However, the lead replicates or copies what some of the body says. I don't see much of a summary. The first paragraph is seen already in "Medical use" section. The third paragraph is not in the body; so do some or fewer sentences in the second. --George Ho (talk) 12:29, 28 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
Yup nothing wrong with the lead containing key aspects of the body work for work. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 05:25, 29 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
I'll rephrase: most of the sentences in the lead are identical to the ones in the body. The first paragraph is almost identical to the "Medical use" section, for example. --George Ho (talk) 10:00, 29 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Effectiveness edit

Once a medication / vaccine comes into use a discussion of effectiveness IMO should be under "medical use" not "history". Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 17:12, 9 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
