Researchers have
a start on a monkey vaccine. This is all preliminary, but so far it seems to offer some protection to macaques. They were immunized and then exposed to a new strain that wasn't part of the vaccine preparation.
The fly in the ointment is the problem of human testing. There can't be a control group for a disease with 60% kill rate, and I'm not sure how many volunteers there would be for a test group.
