Frequently asked questions on
Ebola virus disease
Updated 8 August 2014
1. What is Ebola virus disease?
Ebola virus disease (formerly known
as Ebola haemorrhagic fever) is a severe, often fatal illness, with a death rate of up to 90%. The illness affects humans and nonhuman
primates (monkeys, gorillas, and chimpanzees).
Ebola first appeared in 1976 in two simultaneous outbreaks, one in a
village near the Ebola River in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and
the other in a remote area of Sudan.
The origin of the virus is unknown
but fruit bats (Pteropodidae) are
considered the likely host of the
Ebola virus, based on available
evidence.
2. How do people become
infected with the virus?
In the current outbreak in West
Africa, the majority of cases in
humans have occurred as a result of
human-to-human transmission.
Infection occurs from direct contact
through broken skin or mucous
membranes with the blood, or other
bodily fluids or secretions (stool,
urine, saliva, semen) of infected
people. Infection can also occur if
broken skin or mucous membranes
of a healthy person come into
contact with environments that have
become contaminated with an Ebola
patient’s infectious fluids such as
soiled clothing, bed linen, or used
needles.
More than 100 health-care workers
have been exposed to the virus
while caring for Ebola patients. This
happens because they may not have
been wearing personal protection
equipment or were not properly
applying infection prevention and
control measures when caring for
the patients. Health-care providers
at all levels of the health system –
hospitals, clinics, and health posts –
should be briefed on the nature of
the disease and how it is
transmitted, and strictly follow
recommended infection control
precautions.
WHO does not advise families or
communities to care for
individuals who may present
with symptoms of Ebola virus
disease in their homes . Rather,
seek treatment in a hospital or
treatment centre staffed by doctors
and nurses qualified and equipped
to treat Ebola virus victims. If you do
choose to care for your loved one at
home, WHO strongly advises you to
notify your local public health
authority and receive appropriate
training, equipment (gloves and
personal protective equipment [PPE]
) for treatment, instructions on
proper removal and disposal of PPE,
and information on how to prevent
further infection and transmission of
the disease to yourself, other family
members, or the community.
Additional transmission has occurred
in communities during funerals and
burial rituals. Burial ceremonies in
which mourners have direct contact
with the body of the deceased
person have played a role in the
transmission of Ebola. Persons who
have died of Ebola must be handled
using strong protective clothing and
gloves and must be buried
immediately. WHO advises that the
deceased be handled and buried by
trained case management
professionals, who are equipped to
properly bury the dead.
People are infectious as long as their
blood and secretions contain the
virus. For this reason, infected
patients receive close monitoring
from medical professionals and
receive laboratory tests to ensure
the virus is no longer circulating in
their systems before they return
home. When the medical
professionals determine it is okay for
the patient to return home, they are
no longer infectious and cannot
infect anyone else in their
communities. Men who have
recovered from the illness can still
spread the virus to their partner
through their semen for up to 7
weeks after recovery. For this reason,
it is important for men to avoid
sexual intercourse for at least 7
weeks after recovery or to wear
condoms if having sexual
intercourse during 7 weeks after
recovery.
Generally, a person must come into
contact with an animal that has Ebola
and it can then spread within the
community from human to human.
3. Who is most at risk?
During an outbreak, those at higher
risk of infection are:
health workers;
family members or others in close
contact with infected people;
mourners who have direct contact
with the bodies of the deceased
as part of burial ceremonies.
More research is needed to
understand if some groups, such as
immuno-compromised people or
those with other underlying health
conditions, are more susceptible
than others to contracting the virus.
Exposure to the virus can be
controlled through the use of
protective measures in clinics and
hospitals, at community gatherings,
or at home.......
