EBOLA ALERT: What You Need To Know.


Its probably "old" news by now but trust me, there's a couple of people out there that don't know how this deadly virus can be gotten... 
Lucky for them, we for their back.


Things you need to know about the Ebola Virus..
1. It is a Central African disease that has travelled 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(People eat bats???) but monkeys and apes are easily infected and killed.


2. It kills sooo fast, a week or two is the longest the victim can live, leaving no time to treat the individual.


3. It has no known vaccine or cure (Except you got God of course)


4. It is majorly known in African countries like Guniea, Liberia and Central Africa Rep. It is fast spreading eastwards and westwards towards Nigeria, Lagos to begin. Death toll so far in West Africa is over 100.


5. The Ebola outbreak of 2014 is the most challenging one witnessed in Africa.


Wanna know how to avoid the virus?
1. Very importantly, seek the face of God


2. Avoid eating any bush meat for now! Especially Apes and Bats (if you find those edible)


3. Wash your hands as regularly as possible, especially after shaking a stranger. It is spread majorly by contact. Use a hand sanitizer


4.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.


Just dont read or ignore... Treat with utmost importance... Spread this campaign before the virus spreads!
