#Ebola is a serious infectious disease that can spread rapidly if not recognized and contained on time. The signs and symptoms usually appear 2–21 days after exposure.

⚠️ If you or someone around you notices these symptoms, do not ignore them. Seek medical attention immediately and avoid contact with others until cleared by health professionals.

🛡️ Protecting yourself also protects your family, friends, and community.
Let’s work together to stop the spread of Ebola.

#Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) has a high fatality rate, but early detection, supportive care, and strict adherence to preventive measures can significantly reduce risks.

⚠️ Protect yourself and others by following health advisories, practicing good hygiene, and reporting any suspected cases immediately.

#Ebola is caused by the Ebolavirus — a group of viruses with several species, including Zaire, Sudan, Bundibugyo, Taï Forest, and Reston ebolavirus (which affects animals but not humans).

Knowing the cause helps us strengthen prevention and response efforts. 💪🏾


Stay Safe, Stay Protected!

Protect yourself and others by:
Practising proper hand hygiene
Avoiding contact with infected persons or materials

Staying informed through trusted public health sources

Misinformation can spread faster than disease. Understanding the facts about Ebola helps protect you, your family, and your community.

Fact: Ebola is not the same disease as Hantavirus. While Hantavirus is mainly linked to rodent exposure, Ebola spreads through direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of an infected person.

Fact: There is no approved home remedy for Ebola. Early reporting, prompt medical care, and strict infection prevention measures are critical to reducing transmission and saving lives.

Stay informed. Verify information from trusted sources. Avoid self-medication and the spread of rumours.
