Ebola is a severe and often deadly viral disease caused by Ebola viruses. It spreads through direct contact with the bodily fluids of an infected person or contaminated materials, not through normal airborne transmission like the flu.
Common symptoms
* Fever
* Weakness and fatigue
* Vomiting and diarrhea
* Muscle pain
* Bleeding in severe cases
Key facts
* First identified in 1976 in Central Africa.
* Outbreaks mostly occur in parts of Africa.
* Some Ebola strains have vaccines and treatments, but availability depends on the strain.
* Rapid isolation and medical care greatly improve survival chances.
The viral post we shared appears sensationalized. As of now, there is no global COVID-style lockdown related to Ebola in most countries. Health agencies monitor outbreaks carefully to prevent wider spread.
