The serum from a survivor is essentially a transfusion of antibodies, so your body doesn't have to wait to make it's own. Therefore it shortens the duration of the disease.
In contrast ZMapp or other drugs work in other ways, which might be great at reducing the intensity of the symptoms. or doing other wonderful things.
Amber and Nina got serum very early, which may have made all the difference in the duration of their disease.

A report dated Oct. 14 said that 40 percent of all the farms in Sierra Leone have been abandoned as farmers leave affected areas. The same report quoted a U.N. agricultural official as saying unless the situation is reversed, it could lead to "a hunger crisis of epic scale in West Africa."
“If communities begin to migrate due to failing crops, the spread of (Ebola) could accelerate across Liberia and beyond."
Earlier reports noted that the movement of farmers from rural areas to the affected areas cities also could speed the spread of Ebola.
"The loss of crops due to medical fears will further exacerbate the already strained economic conditions and could lead communities to migrate to areas they believe will be able to provide food and water,” said one. “If communities begin to migrate due to failing crops, the spread of (Ebola) could accelerate across Liberia and beyond."

Its not news. And by now we should have learned the lesson not to get worked up until there's a positive Ebola test.
Really we should not get worked up at all.
