Ebola drugs show ‘90% survival rate’

Scientists have said Ebola may soon be a 'preventable and treatable' disease

Scientists have said Ebola may soon be a "preventable and treatable" disease after a trial of two drugs showed significantly improved survival rates. We hear from our health reporter in Nairobi.

Also, the top Twitter trend in Italy has been #NadiaToffa. She's an Italian TV presenter who has died from cancer at 40 years old. We speak to someone who worked with her.

And the Lebanese-American former porn star Mia Khalifa has claimed she only made $12,000 from her time working in the industry. She also talked about the difficulty of finding a job after leaving. People in the industry tell us about their experiences.
