- Ebola is spread through direct physical contact with the body fluids of an infected person.
- It is important to note that a person who is infected with Ebola is contagious once he/she has the symptoms of Ebola.
- The Ebola virus is also transmitted to humans through infected bush meat such as bats and monkeys.
- A person becomes infected when the Ebola virus has entered his/her body.
- As it multiplies, the Ebola virus becomes a great risk to all our families and communities.
