information 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

and Central Africa Rep, spreading
eastwards and westwards towards
Nigeria. At least 1048 cases of infections have been reported with about 632 deaths toll so far in West Africa. (5). The Ebola outbreak of
2014 is the most challenging one
witnessed in Africa.What we can
do? :1. Avoid eating any bush meat for
now! Especially Apes and Bats 2. Wash
your hands as regularly as possible,
especially after shaking hands with
anyone. 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
