All you need to know about Ebola Virus:
1. It is
a Central African disease that has traveled
over countries in a living host to West Africa. It
is easily spread by physical contact and eating
contaminated bush meat. Major hosts are in 5 species of Bats but
monkeys and apes are
easily infected and killed.
2. It kills in a week,
leaving no time to treat an individual
3. It has
no known vaccine or cure. Known cases have
been experienced recently in Guinea, Liberia
and Central Africa Rep, spreading eastwards and westwards towards
Nigeria. Death toll so
far in West Africa is over 100.
5. The Ebola
outbreak of 2014 is the most challenging one
witnessed in Africa.
What we can do?
Save a Soul>>>>>>> SS strategy of EBOLA Fever prevention!
1. Avoid
eating any bush meat for now! Especially Apes
and Bats.
2. Wash your hands as regularly as possible, especially after shaking
a stranger. It
is spread by contact.
3.The most
straightforward prevention method during
Ebola outbreaks is not touching patients, their
excretions, and body fluids, or possibly
contaminated materials and utensils. Patients should be isolated, and
medical staff should be
trained and apply strict barrier nursing
techniques (disposable face mask, gloves,
goggles, and a gown at all times). Traditional
burial rituals, especially those requiring
embalming of bodies, should be discouraged or modified.
Awareness is key, don't just read or
ignore... spread this campaign before the virus
spreads!"
