What's Ebola?

It's Bloody:
Ebola is what scientists call
a haemorraghic fever - it
operates by making its
victims bleed from almost
anywhere on their body.
Usually, victims bleed to
death from Ebola.

It's Contagious:
Ebola is highly contagious;
being transmitted via
contact with body fluids
such as blood, saliva,
semen or body discharges.
Ebola is NOT AIRBORNE!

Really Deadly:
About 90% of people that
catch Ebola will die from it.
It's one of the deadliest
diseases in the world,
killing in a few weeks.

Untreatable:
This is the sad part - Ebola
has no known treatment or
cure. Victims are usually
treated for symptoms with
the faint hope that they
recover.
